Use
this video-based training package to learn how to teach critical
classroom social skills to students (K-8) in inclusive classrooms
and schools. The package offers practical instructional strategies
for educators--teachers, special educators, school psychologists,
social workers, guidance counselors, and teacher educators--who
are working alone or in collaborative partnerships to develop
social skills in all students. A special section provides strategies
for teaching social skills to students with behavioral difficulties.
The 300-page manual tells you how you can
infuse social skills into your instruction to ensure success.
The manual includes blackline masters of overheads, sample activities
from teachers who have successfully piloted the approach, assessment
forms, and teacher-developed scope and sequence materials for
the most commonly taught social skills.
An accompanying videotape (approximately
60 minutes) shows how teachers across the country have used the
social skills approach with diverse student populations--including
students in rural, suburban, and urban areas; students with and
without disabilities; students with diverse cultural backgrounds.
Perfect for use in inservice workshops
or university methods courses! The manual and accompanying video
(VHS format) have been successfully field tested in school districts
and university-based teacher preparation programs.
