Social Skills Skits DVD

by Berthold Berg, Ph.D.

Ages 10-16. If you're working with teens or preteens on social skills, this DVD is a great way to stimulate discussion and real behavior change. Skits performed by kids illustrate negative, and then positive, reactions to real-life situations. The dramatic contrast between "how not to" and "how to" never fails to provoke viewer involvement and discussion.

The skits focus on introducing yourself, starting a conversation, giving a compliment, following rules, sharing, suggesting an activity, helping a friend in trouble, showing concern for a friend, expressing negative feelings, getting attention appropriately, and asking to borrow things. Each of the DVDs 12 sections serves as the basis for hours of discussion, written assignments, and role play. This DVD is often used in conjunction with The Social Skills Game.

DVD, 30 minutes.
