Social Skills

Question:

Why should teachers be concerned with social skill training when this is what each parent should be doing daily?

Answer:

Parents are teaching social skills that are relavant to their household and community.

Purpose: For students to embrace their unique learning style. To establish their style and use it to reach their full potential across the curriculum.

Objective: Students will use their preferred learning style in all subjects with the help of aides by the teacher to create a differentiated learning environment.

Computers with internet acess

White Boards with markers (50)

Cluster tables

Tape recorders with headsets (159)

manipulatives

television with dvd (99)

area rug

This will help reduce the level of shame, guilt, and isolation.

The girls will learn coping skills and behaviors for

expressing and realizing their full potential.

The class will include:
