Social Skill Groups

Hosted by

Sheila Franklin Gilstein

Children, ages 4-14, are carefully screened and placed in social skill groups according to ages, abilities, and grades. There are currently 5 concurrent groups. Groups are conducted during fall/winter, winter/spring, and summer sessions. Groups emphasize sharing, compromising, negotiating, expressing feelings, body language, conflict resolution skills, handling teasing, self-confidence and following rules of games. Any child in need of social skill building, and children with ADHD and Asperger's Syndrome participate in the groups.
