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

  • PS: Socks, an aside for you... I remember a roll play I had to do once, which was actually for phone skills.  Because it was for phone skills we had to do it with one other person with our chairs back to back.  Wonder if that would be a less threatening way for you to start and allow you to concentrate on just the verbal and tone of voice side?  I'm told I have good eye contact, but I think my eyes are unfocused  or I'm looking out the side of my vision a lot more than people realise!
