Practicing Social Skills: How to Teach Your Student Social Interactions | LD Topics | L... - 11 views

      Many times students come in from recess/lunch with a problem.  Most situations for me it has been the same student or students.  He/She is missing out on interactions and in turn may perceive things as someone is talking about him/her or making fun of him/her.  Constant teacher reminders about social skills as well as Second Step has been a way of helping these students.  Parents also need to be involved and carry the load in helping out their child.  
  • When students miss out on the numerous social opportunities present in a typical classroom they are missing out on opportunities for academic enrichment (collaborating on projects, working in pairs, participating in class discussions) as well as personal and social enrichment (making new friends, playing games).

The scary part is that what gets filtered out of your search results is not decided by you but by the algorithms of the companies that are providing you with the results.
