•Social skills stories and activities are perfect for whole-class instruction, both when you want to introduce a new social skill, or when your students are struggling with a particular skill or topic.

•Social Skills Stories are also fantastic for small group instruction of target social skills, and individual instruction for students needing extra guidance and reinforcement of skills because of behavior problems, autism, or special needs.

• Social skills stories seem to have the greatest impact when they are read multiple times, and in my classroom we would often focus on one story/skill per week.
