My Project

Please help me to expand my classroom social skills library. Often times, the most helpful way to teach my students social skills is by reading and discussing social skills stories with them. We then discuss how we could apply these skills in their lives both within the school environment and outside of the school environment. I have found some very cute stories, such as "The Cool Bean Makes a Splash", " The Big Cheese", and "the Couch Potato", to name a few. Thank you for taking the time to consider donating to my project.
