And one of our most popular classes is improv.

It's exactly for that reason.

It's the ability to let yourself go, slow your mind down a little bit and just be present and respond to prompts and be silly and have a good time.

But again, it's all the things that we're talking about.

Turn taking, wait time, active listening.

They're doing it in a role play and they're doing it in a safe way.

And then they can replicate those things in real life as they get more confident.

And what we've done too is instead of social skills groups, we've created homeroom social clubs, we call them.

which are exactly what I was describing.

It's kind of a moderated space.

We can do like icebreaker games, check in, show and tells, like museum nights.

And then the students go into breakout rooms and Zoom.

So they've got like kind of a prompt, pick a photo that represents one of your happiest moments.

And then they go into rooms of like two and then they take turns sharing their photos and the mentor pops around the different rooms.

And we do that and we give that class to everyone who signs up for our courses.

Because we're trying to build the community of a school, right?

And the community of a school is often like the hallways, right?

It's the banter.

It's the homeroom.

It's the things that happen in between and around academics a lot of the time.
