A companion to the original Socially Savvy, this convenient checklist with extended objectives is perfect for assessing learners in both school and medical settings.. Each item on the Socially Savvy Checklist now has two objectives to pick from, depending on the child you are working with or the setting in which you are working. These objectives were designed to show how these skills could be taught in different ways throughout the day and in different environments. Feel free to use the objectives as a jumping off point for your setting and your learner. While an objective may target the playground or a mealtime, you can reword it for gym, a gymnastics class, or snack. The key is to remember that learning happens all the time, and instruction should be embedded in games, daily activities, moments of connection and fun, and wherever you can-especially the unexpected places and times.
