Teens – Social Skill Strategies PDF

Social skills constitute more than a time-honoured list of modern manners; they are ways to thrive in today’s world. \n \nIn this workbook, Teens – Social Skill Strategies, teens learn by doing, from each other, and through thought and feedback. Using a variety of social skills activities, real life comes to the classroom, group room or individual space as teens practice new skills and begin to change negative behaviours. Awareness of societal expectations, empathy, ethics and altruism are not taught but are lived, through simulated and actual situations. Verbal and non-verbal communication, social graces, the desire to fit in, diversity, inclusion, finding and being a friend, family relationships, forgiveness, first love, breakups, humanitarianism and other topics are featured. Social issues, including abuse prevention and other topics are addressed. \n \nActive learning occurs as teens consider social life and social consciousness through social skills activities including interactive games, introspective drawing and writing, mock videos, role plays, panel discussions, press conferences, through drama, music, pantomimes and other activities.
