Mouse over images to see larger version Click to view supersize image " I Use My Words When I am Angry" My 14 year old autistic son kicked his teacher one day when she told him he couldn’t do something he wanted to do. The key was learning to express his feelings without engaging in aggression. This is a hard issue and one I find often when working with people with special needs. Social stories provide visual cues to help them understand to use their words instead of hurting other people around them. A must for any child who resorts to aggression to get what he wants. This book can be used over and over again to teach your special needs child more appropriate strategies for dealing with things going on in their environment. Each book is made with double folded 110 cardstock, laminated to keep it nice, and bound for ease in use. Please check out our store for a more detailed description of each book and the variety of formats (PDF files/CD-roms) we offer. What is a Social Story Social Story Books are tools for teaching social skills to children with autism and related disabilities. Social stories provide an individual with accurate information about those situations they may find difficult or confusing. Each situation is described in detail and focus is given to key points: the important social cues, the events and reactions the individual might expect to occur in the situation, the actions and reactions that might be expected of them, and why. The goal of our stories; to increase the individual’s understanding, make them more comfortable, and suggest some appropriate responses for the situation in question.
