Not what I was expecting from something called a “social story” – there is no story, just cards with statements on them. I would also disagree with the one that says “After I say sorry, everything is ok.” – this is not always true, and I also don’t want to give children the impression that they can do anything because saying sorry will fix it.

Hi Su,
Thank you for your feedback.
Although social stories are designed to suit the individual needs of the child, we have created a generic set of social stories for teachers to use as a starting point for students in the classroom.
Feel free to download our Social Stories – Pictures and Templates to create your own set of social stories that are more suited to the needs of individual students. https://www.teachstarter.com/teaching-resource/social-story-pictures-templates/
Feel free to read our blog on the use of social stories in the mainstream classroom.
