Create a social story

5


5 per unit - Virtual OK - Posted Dec 10, 2017

There are so many social situations that happen in our day to day life and for the most part, we interact with them without giving a second thought. Shaking a hand when greeting a new person, saying thank you when receiving an item, not burping in public, washing our hands after using the restroom, etc. For some however, these basic social skills are hard to remember. In these instances, a social story comes in very handy

A social story is a short, descriptive story that pertains to a specific social situation. It uses pictures and words typically and will explain the situation, and how to solve it. They are usually 5-20 sentences long depending on the needs of the individual.

I will create a single social story for your given situation or behaviors for kids / adults that need extra reminders and routines to follow.

Training & Qualifications


I was a teacher who specialized in Special Education for 11 years and worked with students that had a wide range of skills.
I started my career by working in a developmental preschool and birth-3 program working with the littles to develop basic life skills. After 4 years, I moved up to an elementary life skills classroom where I worked with students from Kindergarten to 8th grade.

These years of experience have given me ample opportunity to develop social stories for a wide range of situations.

I am excited about the prospect of exchanging service for service. It's an attempt to bring back an old school barter system which is amazing. It provides a real sense of community and I am excited...

About Jeffrey Reed

My name is Jeff, I love computers and everything about them, building them, playing games on them, developing websites on them, etc. I have always enjoyed creating websites but growing up I never thou...ght that the opportunities to do something I love like that everyday existed, so I went a different route for a while. For 11 years (Not counting the 5 of college) I have been immersed in the education world. I began my career teaching in a developmental preschool with an average class size of 10 kiddos all with varying special needs. After 4 years of that, I moved up to the elementary Life Skills classroom where I taught kiddos from Kindergarten up to 8th grade who all had varying special needs. This experience changed me, taught me, and gave me an extremely different outlook on life. After 11 years in the education world, I began to get burnt out. I loved the kids, still miss them terribly, however the politics involved in the education system tied my hands and I would not get as much time teaching the students as I would like. For the moment, and potentially the far reaching future, I have taken on a change in career and moved towards web design which I have always enjoyed. I am excited about this new adventure and anxious to see where it leads. I am still involved in the education world creating resources, offering advice, and spending time with kids in other programs, but it has been a welcome change...for the moment. You never know what tomorrow brings!show more
