Description
Ages: 3-8Grades: PreK-3
These one-page, rebus-supported stories help children understand the social world and know what to say and what to do at school. The book has 40 ready-to-use lessons (stories). The concise format makes it easy to keep a copy of the lesson where the social situation occurs.
Each sentence in a story is supported by one or more pictures. Customize the lessons by adding student-specific information, editing the text, and using a photograph in place of the generic picture in the book. There are instructional and behavioral lessons.
The instructional lessons can be used as part of a social skills curriculum with small groups of children or individuals. They teach young children what they need to say or do in social situations that are often overwhelming to children with autism (e.g., Recess). The behavioral lessons target specific social problems that need to be stopped (e.g., Covering My Cough and Sneeze). They are best used with an individual child.

- Routine ActivitiesFirst Day of School, I Finish My Work, Using a Schedule, Recess, Using Markers, Using the Computer, and more
