I have started two book clubs focusing on social skills. Each group is a combination of students needing targeted social skills instruction and typically developing peer models. The first book selection for both groups is "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" by Roald Dahl- one of my favorites! We will have discussions about the behavior of the children, adult reactions, feelings, using kind words, and other social aspects. I am excited about this (and the students seem to be as well) and hope it goes as well as I am hoping!
Has anyone out there done something like this before?
I am Rebecca Jacobs, a Speech-Language Pathologist. I provide services for students at Sylvan Park Paideia Design Center and in the Total Communication classroom at Eakin Elementary. This blog will provide updates on therapy activities, advice on activities you can do with your children at home, relevant articles, reviews of iPod touch and iPad apps for speech-language instruction, and other things.
