Social Skills - Screening

The social skills screening is an important part of our Adventure Kids Program. We use it to assess each child's current social abilities before the program begins, allowing us to identify specific areas that need support. This personalised approach ensures that our sessions are tailored to meet the unique needs of each child, focusing on targeted skill development. By the end of the program, we conduct another screening to measure progress, helping us track the child’s growth in communication, teamwork, and problem-solving. This process enables us to provide parents with a detailed report on their child’s social development.

Choose Your Adventure

Our ESRA (Emotional Skills Rating Assessment) and SIPRA (Social Interaction and Participation Rating Assessment) are key tools we use in the Adventure Kids Program to evaluate and support the development of social and emotional skills. The ESRA focuses on understanding how children manage and express emotions, while the SIPRA assesses their ability to interact and participate effectively in group settings. These assessments allow us to create individualized plans for each child, ensuring that their social and emotional growth is nurtured throughout the program. By regularly using these tools before, during, and after the program, we can track progress and provide clear insights into the child's development, helping parents see measurable outcomes.
