Social Support Stories

Social Support Stories
Some students need more than reminders about what they should or should not do. They need social situations broken down clearly so they can recognize what is happening, understand how their actions affect others, and learn what they can do differently.
These Social Support Stories use clear language, supportive visuals, and step-by-step instruction to teach important behavior and social-emotional skills. Topics include accepting “no,” respecting personal space, apologizing and making amends, using safe hands, managing emotions, and responding appropriately in challenging situations.
Each printable resource is designed to help students:
– Recognize emotions, body language, and social cues
– Understand how their behavior affects other people
– Learn appropriate replacement behaviors
– Practice self-regulation and problem-solving skills
– Repair relationships after mistakes
– Apply these skills more independently across settings
Use these stories for direct instruction, social-emotional small groups, counseling sessions, behavior interventions, independent review, or reinforcement at home. Browse the collection to find a Social Support Story that addresses the specific skill your student is still learning.
