Social Communication Skills
A Workbook for Principle Centered Communication
William McGann, Gerry Werven
This workbook provides a wide range of scenarios that are relevant to today's social environment, in which children ages 8 through 11 can practice problem solving through communication. Increasingly, speech-language pathologists are asked to assist in helping children actively participate socially with their peers. This book provides activities that help children, with teachers or therapists as their guides, to discover the principles that govern social communication and to apply those principles to realistic events in their lives.
This workbook helps you help children to form a deeper understanding of the factors involved in social communication so that they can develop skills that will make them more effective communicators. It is structured in its framework but highly flexible in its application (it is process, not program, oriented). You will find this workbook relevant to today's social environment in that it deals with issues such as diversity and conflict resolution. It clearly defines essential principles for social communication that can be applied across a wide range of settings and age groups.
