“Two things are necessary, the development of individuality and the participation of the individual in a truly social life.”
-Maria Montessori
SEL skills are essential for successful interaction and communication. Our skills training sessions are designed to help children develop critical skills in a fun and engaging way. Through role-playing, group activities, and real-life scenarios, children learn to read social cues, engage in conversations, resolve conflicts, and build lasting friendships. These skills are taught in age-appropriate groups to ensure that every child feels comfortable and included.
What’s Involved in Skills Groups? Skills groups at Positive Kids are structured around both instruction and practical application of essential skills pertaining to the issue. These groups typically include techniques such as video modeling, role-playing, social coaching, and direct skill practice both during and outside of sessions through homework assignments.
Who Runs Skills Groups? Our groups are facilitated by social workers, licensed counselors, often with the assistance of students in clinical placements. This approach allows us to provide a comprehensive treatment environment, addressing a broad spectrum of social needs.
Who Can Participate? Our skills groups cater to children from ages 4 to 18 and are tailored to meet the needs of specific age ranges and developmental stages. The goals of our groups include:
- Social and Emotional Flourishing: Helping children develop in ways that enhance their social interactions and emotional well-being.
- Character Growth: Teaching the values of empathy and contribution to society.
- Positivity: Encouraging a mindset that promotes personal development and growth.
- Interpersonal Skills: Equipping children with the abilities needed to cooperate and collaborate with others.
