I chose to write a social story for Oscar that shows different ways that he can approach other children and adults and express his needs and wants. This story will have different settings and it has to do with the daily schedule. Oscar parallel plays with other children at the head start program. He is very quiet and points to what he wants. In the story I will include words that can express his needs like “I want, I like, I need”; also to express interest in playing with others “Can I play, can I have this toy?” I hope this book will help improve his communication skills.
Sandra,
ReplyDeleteWhen I wrote my social story, I focused most of the text on one phrase "Will you play?" and introduced the second phrase "I want a turn." near the end of the story. The social story was a success. He asked another boy to play on the playground. I hope your social story helps Oscar improve his communication skills too. Good Luck!
Hi Sandra,
ReplyDeleteI think that your book is a great idea to help Oscar with his communication skills. Expressing his wants and needs are crucial skills for him to learn in order to have success in Kindergarten. I hope it turns out great and that he uses some of the phrases you taught him.
Thanks for sharing,
Heather
Great social story. I had a student last year in my class that could not talk. I used picture cards along with words. This was a great way and the students was learning to read because of the words and pictures on the cards.
