Dungeons and Dragons Social Skills Group
Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) is a tabletop role-playing game that has been played since its inception in the 1970s. The goal of the game is to collaboratively tell a story that everyone gets to contribute to – there’s no winning or losing. As the story progresses, players must work together to defeat monsters, solve puzzles, and find treasure, while the Game Master (GM) acts as a referee/moderator and sets the scene for the players.
This therapy group aims to help participants develop skills and social understanding through experience, allowing participants to apply their social skills in practice, while learning from each other in a fun, supportive environment. If your 11-12 year-old child is imaginative, enjoys fantasy, and/or struggles with social skills, they may be a good fit for this group.

Square Peg Theater Class
Scott Douthit is the acclaimed author of My Dyslexic Life. He has been an actor, teacher, and theater director for over 40 years. He believes that students with learning struggles focus on what they can’t do without exploring what they can do. In high school, Scott struggled in auditions and monologues because of his poor sight-reading and memorization skills. He felt like a “square peg” trying to fit into a round hole. He was relying on skills that he didn’t have and ignoring the talents and strengths that he did have.
This course is designed for fellow square pegs. Scott has developed his own style of acting based on one's strengths.
This group will use a variety of techniques, including:
Improvisation
Theater games
Character development
Theater combat
Clowning
Physical comedy
Musical theater
It will develop self-confidence and foster an appreciation of individual gifts and talents for students in 4th and 5th grades.
