Teaching Targeted Social Skills

Help me give my students access. The iPad and pencil will allow me to use the SCERTS model worksheets to efficiently evaluate student's skills in highly specified areas to work on the exact thing that each student needs.

My Students

My students are fun-loving, bright, and full of curiosity. They are students receiving IEP services under the eligibility category of Autism and they love to learn. The biggest difficulty that my students face is being able to access the everyday instruction, and sharing their own thoughts on the instruction so teachers can see how much they already know.

They have big ideas, extremely insightful questions, and an outside the lines perspective that would benefit both their peers and teachers if they could only communicate those thoughts.

My Project

The SCERTS Model is a systematic approach to enhancing the communication and social-emotional abilities of young children with autism spectrum disorder. SCERTS refers to Social Communication, Emotional Regulation, and Transactional Support, which are the main areas in which kiddos with ASD need support and skill instruction.

The model allows me and the teachers to observe, teach, and reinforce super specific skills as small as a child's ability to tune into emotional changes in their communication partners.

Having access to the materials and a way to quickly track, and update our tasks will make it so we can help these awesome kiddos gain the exact social communication skill they need next. As they grow our whole school will benefit from the amazing ideas, thoughts, questions, opinions, and fun that these kiddos are currently struggling to share with us.
