Social Story My Teacher is Having a Baby

Description

This social story is a great read for students who may need some support and help when understanding that their teacher is having a baby, the process of their teacher having a baby and what effect this will have on them and the class.

Many students with autism are visual learners and like to learn through seeing something in action. This book comes complete with matching, simple yet engaging graphics to help describe what is being said on the page.
