[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 382752, member: 3444"] Some difficult child's do better in smaller groups or one-on-one situations. Recess is a very unstructured and chaotic time for a lot of difficult child's. Too much stimulation. Too many stressors. Too many rules to remember, etc. Does your school have a mentor program? This is where a younger child or even a struggling older child is partnered with a volunteer student who buddies up with them during recess to help model appropriate social interaction. Sometimes they help them get involved in larger group activities, or they might just engage them in a one-on-one activity like a board game or shooting hoops. It's a way for the struggler to have small social successes and in the long run can help ease anxieties about interacting with other kids. If your school doesn't offer one, suggest it to the school counselor or even the sped teacher. [/QUOTE]
