The Learner will independently recognize and respond to a variety of social greetings, using both verbal responses and nonverbal cues, across 6 opportunities.

This updated version of our Greetings lesson lets Coaches tailor the experience by selecting the type of greeting, allowing Learners to practice with Ayanna, Myra, or Alejandro and refine their responses. This lesson focuses on positive engagement through social smiles and verbal acknowledgments, enhancing non-verbal communication via gestures such as nodding, waving, and shrugging, and teaches the crucial skill of appropriately disengaging from unfriendly encounters by looking away and not responding.
