This social story is designed to help children understand that making mistakes is a normal and important part of learning. It reassures children that everyone makes mistakes at school and offers strategies for overcoming and learning from them.

Ideal for parents, teachers, and caregivers, this story helps children develop resilience, build confidence, and understand that mistakes are a valuable part of their learning journey.

What is included?

As well as an 11 page social story there is also a shortened adapted book version of the story with movable pictures to attach to each page.

Why do you need this?

The point of a social story is to use a patient and reassuring tone to teach children about social situations in a way that can be easily understood. Social stories can be useful for any child who is struggling to understand a situation or concept or needs help to understand a social skill or social cue, expectations, perspectives, common responses or is troubled about an upcoming event but social stories are particularly useful for children on the autistic spectrum for whom social cues can be challenging and who often suffer anxiety if they do not know what to expect from a situation.

How and when might you use this?

· To implement a social story, you should first ensure that you have eliminated distractions; that it is just you and the child sitting together focussed on the story.

· Initially you should read the story through twice with the child but it is then vital to revisit it regularly.

· Try to find a way to incorporate the story into the child's daily schedule.

· If the story is relating to a particular inappropriate behavior, it is useful to read the story when this behavior occurs, you do not however want the story to be seen as any kind of punishment.

· Regularly praise your child and keep it a positive experience.

These books should be used over and over to reinforce the point so I would suggest either putting the pages into a display book or laminating and binding them.

Welcome your students with this colorful banner spelling out the word "welcome" in American Sign Language (ASL).

Introducing the Thanksgiving Behavior Chart: A Grateful Journey to Positive Classroom Behavior

Embark on a grateful journey of positive behavior with our Thanksgiving Positive Behavior Chart. This heartwarming tool is designed to encourage and reinforce appropriate classroom behavior while adding a touch of Thanksgiving charm to your classroom management.

Why Choose the Thanksgiving Behavior Chart:

• Track and Reward: Just as Thanksgiving is a time for gratitude, many behavior intervention plans call for tracking how often a student earns rewards, a crucial aspect often overlooked in traditional behavior sheets.
• Flexible Reinforcement: Customize your reinforcement schedule, choosing between a fixed ratio schedule where students earn rewards every 3 or 4 consecutive positive behaviors or a progressive schedule that raises the challenge with each success.
• Promoting Grateful Growth: Focus on nurturing desired behaviors rather than addressing inappropriate ones, fostering a sense of gratitude, cooperation, and the idea that positive actions lead to a classroom filled with Thanksgiving charm.

How the Thanksgiving Behavior Chart Works:

1. Begin the Grateful Journey: Select your preferred reinforcement schedule, rewarding every 3 or 4 instances of the desired behavior or gradually increasing expectations over time.
2. Define Your Grateful Quest: Specify the positive behavior you aim to reinforce, whether it's kindness, responsibility, or other classroom-specific objectives that align with the gratitude of Thanksgiving.
3. Chart Your Progress: Use the chart for single-use by marking or coloring in each successful behavior, or laminate it for multiple uses with a dry-erase marker.
4. Record Your Grateful Rewards: For data collection and behavior goal tracking, maintain a record of daily earned rewards to measure progress over time.

Choosing the Perfect Grateful Reward:

• Grateful Rewards: Match the reward to the frequency of earned rewards, considering Thanksgiving-themed incentives for quick gratification or special Thanksgiving experiences for longer-term goals.
• Heartwarming Excitement: Ensure the chosen reward captures the charm of Thanksgiving and excites your students, motivating them to maintain positive behavior as they embark on a journey filled with grateful charm.
• Options for Grateful Choices: Provide multiple reward options, granting students a sense of choice and fostering grateful cooperation, just like a Thanksgiving feast shared with loved ones.

Elevate Your Classroom Management with the Thanksgiving Behavior Chart and empower your students to embrace gratitude, cooperation, and growth on their grateful journey to positive behavior.
