2 Be Social

We teach the tools and strategies necessary to develop good social skills. We encourage our students to become effective social communicators by learning how to use social thinking concepts. We teach students to identify a feeling, other than the common feeling of anger, and gauge the size of the problem. We encourage students to think about how their emotion may affect those around them. We teach students how to "think" about social communication and self-regulation. By learning to understand the "whys" of social behavior, students are able to build and strengthen their executive skills.
