Tonight in the high school/ young adult social skills group we created a word cloud about dating and relationships. We talked about self advocacy, boundaries, red flags and green flags in a relationship, and online safety and self-advocacy.

Two weeks ago, a student brought a large tub of putty to social skills group. I had to ask her to put it away because she wasn't comfortable sharing it with her peers and they all wanted to use it too. So, before the next group session, I purchased enough miniature putty containers so that every student in my groups could have their own if they wanted. Not only were the students thrilled, but they remained more regulated, and engaged with one another by helping each other open the containers, and showing each other new and different ways to engage with the putty. Meeting kids sensory needs and helping them become and stay regulated is equally as important as teaching them social skills.
