Winner of an iParenting Media Award, this book uses photographs of students engaging in a variety of real-life social situations.
The realistic format plays to the visual strengths of children with ASD to teach appropriate social behaviors.
Color photographs illustrate the --right way-- and --wrong way-- to approach each situation and the positive/negative consequences of each.
A facilitator (parent, teacher, etc.
) is initially needed to explain each situation, and ask questions such as --What is happening in this picture?-- Children role-play skills until confident enough to practice them in real-life interactions.
