Mrs. Schnieders (our social worker) and her intern, Mrs. Alt, work with small groups of children at the Social Work Table. This work might include reading a book about a social skill, completing a task together cooperatively, or talking about and practicing a coping skill. Just as we do during academic tasks or Group Time, we practice sitting, listening and paying attention. These are the learning skills we need in order to be able to acquire new information. The social work session often ends with a game that provides another opportunity to practice a social skill.
