✨ IDEAS FOR THE USE OF THIS PRODUCT ✨

•This social skills set is 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.

•This set is 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 skills 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 the social skills story and some of the activities 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!

Here is what TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID…

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Sarah P says “My students LOVE any time they get to listen to a story. This resource has made it infinitely easier to communicate and discuss classroom expectations in a 1st-grade-friendly way. No longer do I feel like I'm talking at my students. Besides the variety of tools I can implement (bookmarks, role-playing, lesson plans, YouTube video, early readers), this resource gets to the "why" of adopting the social skill into a classroom environment (I don't see this too much in social stories, but this one does!).

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Cambria R says “This was a great resource to teach whole body listening to my students. I loved the visuals that went along with it as well.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Amy W says “I used this at the beginning of the year and it helped me to reinforce good listening in my first graders.  I recommend this!”
