Goals

 

The primary goals of our programs will be to improve emotional development, social skills and sensory regulation. This will include skills in communicating, cooperation, sharing and enjoying social relationships with peers and groups of children, and reading and responding to social and emotional signals. The program will work on strengthening your child’s processing abilities; including motor planning and sequencing, visual-spatial processing, auditory processing and language, and sensory modulation.

 

 

Ages in groups are approximate; children will also be placed according to developmental ability.
