Background

This is a social story I use to help some children who were having a hard time at group time. It was used with 4, 5, and 6 year olds and worked very well. Let me know if it's useful. I wrote each page out on yellow paper with black marker and drew stick figure pictures (very simple) for a visual.

The story

It is circle time.

When it is time for circle, I go sit in a blue chair.

I sit with my feet on the floor and my hands to myself.

It doesn't matter who I sit next to. I will shake their hand and say good morning.

I help Mrs. G. at circle by listening...

Waiting my turn...

And sitting like a big kid in my chair.

I don't get angry when I don't get a turn because I will get a turn another day.

When circle is over, I wait until Mrs. G. tells me where to go.

I did great at circle today!
