Abstract

This project was done by a special education teacher of the severely handicapped. The goal of this project is to promote a teaching strategy called Social Stories which combine the written word with various scenarios for the autistic individual. Preliminary findings of teachers who are using Social Stories show great promise for some autistic individuals who function at a variety of levels. Unfortunately, Social Stories seems to be neglected as a teaching strategy and what can be done to change so that more teachers are aware of it and using it?
