Summary

Content

This week, you learned how to help your child practice social skills through social coaching. Here are some points to keep in mind:

  1. Social coaching is a great way to help your child manage their social anxiety. 
  2. Rehearsing social situations with your child can help them sharpen their skills before a real interaction. 
  3. Try to set your child up for success when doing social coaching. Pick a task that will not be too hard for them.
  4. Switch roles while role-playing social situations so that you can model the social skill for your child first. Then, have them practice the skill with you. 

Over the next week:

Have your child complete at least one social exposure activity that they rehearse with you beforehand. Use the Practice Your Social Skills worksheet to plan out their activity.
