Students with intellectual and developmental disabilities may encounter challenges in dating and relationships, such as difficulties with communication, interpreting social cues, and regulating emotions. These challenges can sometimes lead to misunderstandings, frustration, or feelings of isolation. Special education teachers play a vital role in supporting students by teaching social skills through role-playing exercises, reinforcing safe dating practices, and providing clear guidance on social norms and boundaries.
This is where the Healthy Relationships Curriculum comes in!
Our curriculum equips special educators with essential resources to help students develop the social skills necessary for building both platonic and romantic relationships. These tools include:
- Role Playing, Demonstrations, and Life Skills Activities: With close to 200 role-play and demonstration videos, students engage in hands-on activities and enjoy interactive role-playing games to apply real-life skills.
- Over 80 Scenario Cards: These cards transform the lessons into practical, real-life situations, enhancing their comprehension of the lessons.
- Outcome Tools: Outcome measurement tools can be shared with parents and administrators to show real-time, individual progress
- Parent Guide for Success & Home Supplements: Offers specific, at-home information & activities to engage the parent or guardian, reinforce the skills learned, and encourage family participation.
