Social Situation Short #4: Body In the Group

In this video short, real kids learn that groups can come in all sizes and about the concept of Body in the Group. Science Guy Brad, a fun-loving social scientist, makes an appearance and teaches viewers they can figure out when people are in groups by what they do with their bodies. Kids also learn that moving one’s body in or out of the group changes with the situation (where you are, what is happening, and who you are with). Visual supports (e.g., thought bubbles and emojis) appear throughout the scenarios to make abstract ideas more concrete. Two thinking-based lesson plans (thinksheets) are included to help students reflect, encourage discussions, and extend the learning. The first is designed for younger students who need more support thinking to understand the concepts. The second is for older students or when teaching more in depth about the concepts introduced in the videos.
