Our Social Detectives are small groups of 2-4 children. These groups are for preschool or school age children who benefit from a smaller group environment allowing more direct support from the clinician. The groups are offered by invitation to clients as a stepping stone to larger groups. Social Detectives groups and pairings target social and pragmatic skills through a variety of approaches, including Social Thinking® methodology, Zones of Regulation and authentic, practical collaboration with a fun interactive focus, including role play, modelling, games, and activities.
Areas covered include:
- Whole Body Listening
- Turn-Taking
- Thoughts and Emotions
- Being part of a group
- Communicating and playing with others
- Following and giving instructions
- Conversation skills
- Asking for help and clarification
- Sharing needs, wants and ideas
