Curriculum is designed developmentally and draws from many
sources, including from Debra’s own extensive experience working
with students identified on the autism spectrum, ADHD, and other
social, emotional, and behavioral needs. Room
14,
Navigating
the Social World,
Inside
Out: What Makes a Person with Social Cognitive Deficits Tick,
and other curricula are foundational
for social skills sessions, but they are expanded with a wide
variety of strategies and functional and practical experiences.
All courses are supported visually, include sensory interventions,
begin with a feeling check in, include a reinforcement system and
provide written feedback to parents. All session groups use
videotaping as an instructional tool and provide for extensive
skill rehearsal. Students receive a notebook detailing each group
session's goals and supporting materials. This notebook which
students may take home each week, allows them to share with
parents, teachers and other helpers. The notebook is also used as
a basis for practicing and reinforcing the new skills.
