Introduction to Social Stories – Opening the Social World for Autistic Children

The world can be a perplexing place for an autistic child. Faces can be hard to read, people can say things they don’t mean and there can be lots of rules that other children seem to pick up easily that can be difficult to interpret e.g. standing in a line, waiting for a turn etc. Social stories are used to help autistic children learn about the social world in an affirming, Neuroaffirmative and child centred way. They are written for the individual child using an evidence-based method and are written using positive language which holds the child’s dignity and self-esteem at the centre of the process. This talk is based on the work or Carol Gray, who is the proponent of social stories.
