Social Communication (Pragmatics)

Social communication and pragmatics include:

• Non verbal body language, gestures and posture
• Greeting peers, initiating conversation, maintaining a topic
• Asking and answering age-appropriate questions
• Turn-taking and collaborative play
• Expected behavior in social situations
• Conversations, comments and compliments!

Individuals enrolled in our play and social groups are carefully matched based on their age, skill levels, goals, peer to peer interactions and interests. All sessions are conducted by Parkwood clinicians and tailored to generalize learned skills outside of the clinic. Individuals must receive a Parkwood Speech and Language evaluation prior to enrollment in our group therapy program.
