Every day, children and young people are required to handle a wide range of challenging social situations. Successful management of these is dependent on the child’s social skills and interpersonal problem-solving capacity, as well as the responses of others and the particular social context.
Talking About Community online resource is aimed at children and young people aged thirteen and above. It is designed to aid those young people in developing their social skills in the community. Good social skills enable us to function in diverse situations in terms of making good choices, knowing what to say, and knowing how to behave. This is the case not only in their educational setting but also in their wider social community.
Talking About Community online resource contains different scenarios. For example

This is a lovely resource, targeted towards teenagers, but also very useful for discussion with younger children. Scenarios are given, these are presented visually in lovely cartoon images, and the scenarios are narrated in a clear voice. Each scenario poses a problem, and 4 alternative solutions are posed – some are more approriate than others, with the intention that the young person is supported to find the most approriate solution which will support there own real life decision making. Prompts/hints are given. Overall a lovely resource to work through to generate discussion and support community decision making with any young person who finds community social scenarios challenging or puzzling. This, and others in this series are so useful to help us demystify social scenarios in a clear, supportive and accessible manner.
