Social Communication
'Social communication is how and why we use language to interact with other people.
There are three major skills involved in social communication:
1. Using language for different reasons, such as
- greeting (saying “Hello” or “Good-bye”)
- requesting (saying “I want a cookie, please.”)
2. Changing language for the listener or situation, such as
- communicating differently to a baby than to an adult or a friend
- communicating differently in a public place than at home.
3. Following rules for conversations and storytelling, such as
- taking turns being a talker and being a listener
- using gestures and body language, like pointing or shrugging'
