✨ IDEAS FOR THE USE OF THIS PRODUCT ✨

•These social stories and activities are perfect for whole-class instruction, both when you want to introduce a new social skill, or when your students are struggling with a particular skill or topic.

 

•These are also fantastic for small group instruction of target social skills, and individual instruction for students needing extra guidance and reinforcement of skills because of behavior problems, autism, or special needs.

 

• Social stories seem to have the greatest impact when they are read multiple times, and in my classroom we would often focus on one story/skill per week.

 

•Some great ways to incorporate these social skills lessons into your daily routine are:

→to use them as time-fillers throughout the day

→present them during class meetings

→make them part of your morning routine

→engage families in the learning by using these as take-home reviews.

 

You won’t be disappointed with the engagement level and the powerful impact this resource will have on your classroom community!
