Social Stories

Social stories are an essential tool in the classroom. These stories are short narratives that provide students with clear and concise information about social situations, expectations, and appropriate behaviour. They are particularly useful for students with special needs who struggle with communication and socialisation. They help students understand social cues, social norms, and how to interact with others. They can also be used to teach important life skills, such as personal hygiene, coping strategies, and problem-solving. By incorporating social stories into the curriculum, teachers can create an inclusive and supportive learning environment that promotes positive behaviour and social skills development.
