[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm on the fence about social skills groups and am following this thread with interest. My child could certainly benefit from social skills lessons, but I wonder if he'd be able to apply anything he is taught. Plus he is in a special needs school and isn't that, in essence, a social skills group? If he it's in school all day in a place http pays attention to this stuff, why would a social skills group be any better or different?[/quote] Many SN schools, like MAP and Auburn, have social skills embedded into their curriculum. My kid is suppose to get pragmatic speech therapy in his IEP but didn't this year which is part of what was causing the problems and thus applying to Unstuck. We found in previous years that general ed and SN teachers who have knowledge about helping with social skills and practicing what DS learns in speech therapy worked well for application of skills.[/quote]
