Soical Story: Trick or Treating!

 Need a Social Story for Halloween?  I made this simple story by using clipart from Microsoft powerpoint.

If you want to make it more personal, I would suggest taking pictures of your student or child practicing Trick or Treat activtivies and add them after their respective pages within the book!  Check it out!  Full PDF version to download is below! 
 





Remember:  repetition is the KEY!  Read often and practice skills daily for a successful Trick or Treat experience!

Learning to Wait! A Social Story

Social Stories are often used to teach social skills to persons with various disabilities and disorders (the most well known being persons with ASD-Austism Spectrum Disorders).  I personally LOVE social stories for ALL children no matter what their diagnosis!  Why, you ask? For several reasons:
1.  Social stories are usually short, clear and concise.
2.  Social stories target a specific social skill.
3.  Social stories explain the behaviors you want the child to exhibit.
4.  Social stories have visuals to aid in comprehension and learning!

I created this simple social story about waiting because that is one of the first skills children I work on when children return from their long summer break.  Enjoy!
