Social
Skills and School Assemblies |
Assemblies afford a wondrous opportunity
to not only learn new information, they're an awesome situation
in which to learn the social skills needed in a large group:
*Feeling comfortable in close proximity to others.
*Negotiating between people
|
*Tolerating being touched by strangers
*Being silent during a presentation
*Speaking before a large group
|
School assemblies have included grade level orientations,
school plays, concerts, guest speakers and graduation ceremonies.
|
Assemblies are scheduled on the
average of one every other month. Nighttime performances occur
at least three times each year.
