Social Skills Group activities?

GooseBay

Hi- I am a guidance counsellor at the local high school (Grades 8-12) and would like to start a weekly group for students living with autism to fit in better socially. This is at the request of a couple of parents. I am thinking role plays for various scenarios whereby I do something wrong or inapropriate and they tell me what it is and how to do it better. Any ideas? Lesson plans? etc.

Thanks,

Valerie

  • Thanks for the repsonse. It is not role play in terms of taking a lot of time - rather - I would simply do one thing - whether it is poke someone or yell to get attention and they give me a new way to handle a social situation. It is not only the parents and teachers, but, rather a few students who would like something in place to help them make friends. It will depend on the group and their preference. I was hoping for some additional ideas that have shown proven success.
