Description

This curriculum builds on the basic philosophy offered in Thinking About You..., then sequences lessons across 8 different chapters to help students start to explore the basic aspects of working and thinking in a group. The chapters expand to address how to use and interpret language (verbal and non-verbal) to further understand the communicative context. The lessons are introduced by encouraging the students and their caregivers to learn the "social thinking vocabulary" and explore more about developing self-awareness through analysis of their groups' therapy videos clips. Caregivers are provided a summary at the end of each chapter of the relevant social thinking vocabulary they can use during "teachable moments" across the day. Each chapter also concludes with goal suggestions to help address the concepts introduced; furthermore each chapter also provides a list of educational standards that require the social knowledge taught within the chapter in order for the students to be able to meet these standards, linking social thinking back to the academics of the classroom. The curriculum provides a comprehensive introduction to guide people through its use, applying it to developing social thinking groups and the core social thinking philosophy.
