Riding the School Bus Social Story
njdc61njdc61

Riding the School Bus Social Story

(0)
Social story explaining to children about riding the bus to school. It covers waiting for the bus, remaining seated while on the bus and using the belt if there is one. The point of a social story is to use a patient and reassuring tone to teach children about social situations in a way that can be easily understood. Social stories can be useful for any child who is struggling to understand a situation or concept or needs help to understand a social skill or social cue, expectations, perspectives, common responses or is troubled about an upcoming event but social stories are particularly useful for children on the autistic spectrum for whom social cues can be challenging and who often suffer anxiety if they do not know what to expect from a situation. These books should be used over and over to reinforce the point so I would suggest either putting the pages into a display book or laminating and binding them. Clipart images courtesy of Artifex

By seeing and matching words and pictures representing opposites, students gain a deeper understanding of language and develop their word recognition skills. Jigsaw puzzles are inherently interactive and engaging. Students actively participate in the learning process as they match the pieces together to form pairs of opposites.

Reward charts

Variety of reward charts where children need to earn differing numbers of stars according to how able they are in order to earn a reward. Why do you need this? Reward charts offer a tangible way to provide positive reinforcement for desired behaviours and achievements. By adjusting the criteria based on individual abilities, teachers can ensure that each student receives appropriate recognition and encouragement for their efforts. Inclusive classrooms embrace diversity and strive to accommodate the needs of all learners. By offering reward charts with varying criteria, teachers can create an inclusive environment where every student feels valued and capable of achieving success. How and when might you use this? For students who require additional support or have specific learning needs, teachers can use personalised reward charts tailored to their abilities. These charts can provide targeted reinforcement and encouragement, helping students make progress toward their goals at their own pace.
