Social Sleuths (Hill Learning Center) – Summer 2024

DEVELOPING SELF-REGULATION STRATEGIES & CONFIDENCE IN PEER INTERACTIONS

for children ages 7 – 11 years

Social Sleuths is a program focusing on developing communication, self-regulation skills and strategies to navigate social situations and negotiate peer interactions. By learning about neurodivergent and neurotypical communication styles, group members will learn how to become “Social Sleuths” to advocate for themselves and master the tools they need to navigate the social world. This program will include social communication and sensory motor activities in the sensory gym, games, art, and concepts from curriculums such as Social Thinking and Zones of Regulation through a neurodiversity-affirming lens.

Goals include:

Develop strategies for:

• Peer perspective taking
• Conversation skills

• Developing sensory-based strategies to improve self-regulation
• Developing negotiation, sharing and game skills with peers

Children are expected to attend every session (barring illness), as the sessions build on each other and group dynamics are an important component. You will not be reimbursed for missed sessions.

If your child is not attending therapy sessions at Emerge, we will be in touch with you to set up a brief free screening to determine if this program is a good match for your child.
