More Social Skills

This time around when we did social skills, it was a little more unstructured and they were required to work together to build something. When I normally start this you see the kids not wanting to work together and take blocks away from the other students that are in the room. To help with this I give them guidance along the way and than slowly stop and let them work together. I do remind them that they need to work together and talk. This way they can determine who is completing what part. So here are a few pictures of what it looked like.

At this point, they were just taking blocks away from each other and not using their words.

Here they started to talk more and work together as a group. You can see the picture on the floor. I was having them use that as a guidance as to what they were building.

This is what it looked like when they were all done. Nothing, but happy faces.

 

Extra time at the end to work independently to see if they watch each other as to what they are building or try something on their own.
