During programming time, students worked on the following social emotional skills: joint attention, conversation, life skills, perspective taking, social problem solving, play, greeting, self-regulation, independent Continued on Schedule O...living, healthy relationships, and friendships through small group instruction and community outings. The students also started learning about their individual disabilities this year.As part of our programming, and to help our students be successful in the community, we coordinated monthly outings during the school year, and weekly outings during the summer. The majority of our students attended each outing, and outings included laser tag, movies, pumpkin patch, ice fishing, bowling, restaurants, state parks, lake tubing, and more. Not only did many of our kids get to do activities they wouldn't normally do (due to behaviors, cost, family dynamics, etc.), but parents also received respite during programming time.To educate parents and help them with skills they are working on at home and in the community, parents received a weekly email from our teachers. Many of our parents also reached out at different times for advice on a variety of issues concerning their child or family. When this happened, our teachers worked 1:1 with parents to try and resolve issues.
