摘要
The pedagogy used for teaching children with special needs is unique to their circumstances. The teacher is instrumental in adopting various innovative approaches. Social skills form the basis for living, working and functioning within the community. With this perspective in mind, the researchers have attempted to study the development of social skills among eight children with deafblindness studying in the Thermai Special School of the National Institute for Empowerment of persons with Multiple Disabilities, Chennai. This experimental research was conducted to document the effect of circle games on development of social skills and to compare its effectiveness with existing classroom instructions. Both the groups-experimental and classroom-received 30 sessions of training with the help of special educators. Analysis of data showed a significant improvement in social skills among children in the experimental group. It was found that circle games were effective in the development of social skills in children across the age range of 9-15 years.
