SOCIAL ADVENTURERS

Social Adventurers will focus on building the foundational Social Thinking® concepts for interacting with peers. Concepts include social observation, play skills, perspective taking, being a part of the group, and problem solving. We will share our imaginations going on adventures and completing group challenges. This program uses the We Thinkers!™ Curriculum.

LOWER ELEMENTARY
Social Smarts

Children will learn the thinking process behind social skills as they begin to understand the importance of thinking about others. Through group activities, they will practice fundamental skills and strategies that will teach them how to participate in a group, read cues to guess thoughts, expand their social emotional vocabulary, understand the perspective of their peers, and adapt their behaviors across settings

The Detective Agency

Detectives will explore core Social Thinking concepts of looking for clues, being aware of other people’s thoughts and feelings, group expectations and more. As they complete challenges and group missions, the detectives will improve their self-awareness and self-regulation abilities.

UPPER ELEMENTARY

Train The Brain

This group is designed to empower children by targeting their self-awareness to improve their social/emotional, self-regulation, executive functioning, and communication skills --all while having fun! Multiple evidence brain-based methodologies will be incorporated, including Brain Talk, Social Thinking, Zones of Regulation, and Mindfulness. Weekly take home ideas and simple strategies to practice will be provided for both child and parent.

UPPER ELEMENTARY-MIDDLE SCHOOL
Awesomely Social
  Ready to communicate with greater social ease? This interactive group is designed for children who are ready to dig deeper into their ability to understand, increase and use their perspective taking abilities to communicate with confidence.  Children will learn how to handle emotional reactions within themselves and others, gain cognitive flexibility, and understand the social code for working in groups. Through the lens of a growth mindset, we will explore strategies to effectively communicate by negotiating ideas and problem solving with others.
