Social Skills Activities for Special Children (2nd Edition)

A flexible, ready-to-use program to help special students in grades K-5 learn appropriate ways to behave among others.

The revised and updated second edition of this bestselling resource book provides ready-to-use lessons (complete with reproducible worksheets) to help children become aware of acceptable social behaviour and develop proficiency in acquiring basic social skills.

3 Core Areas

The Social Skills Activities for Special Children book is organized around three core areas crucial to social development in the primary grades:

1. Accepting Rules and Authority at School
2. Relating to Peers
3. Developing Positive Social Skills

Each lesson places a specific skill within the context of real-life situations, giving teachers a means to guide students to think about why the social skill is important. The hands-on activity accompanying each lesson helps students work through, think about, discuss, and practice the skill in or outside of the classroom.
