* Coloring worksheet to reinforce concepts introduced in the social story

How should I teach this?
1. Read the printed social story or show on a DIGITAL DEVICE
2. Set up opportunities with 2 children and 1 activity or toy such as swing, slide, or highly preferred toy. When child is successful with 2 children, more children can join but this will increase the difficulty as the children will have a longer wait time.
3. Discuss the fact that there is only 1 item and that means that only 1 child will be able to use it at a time. Remind students of the social story and decide which visual they would like to use to take turns.
4. The visuals included can be used with the words “my/your” if the child does not have difficulty with pronouns, but because many children do, there are blank spots where the names can be written or a photo can be placed if child is not yet recognizing their name.
5. Model using the method that has been used.
6. If a timer is used, it is beneficial to use a visual timer or sand hourglass timer so that it is obvious that the wait time is decreasing.
7. While children are waiting you sing the song included or use the visual for “frog jumping/counting”
8. Make certain that in the initial stages wait times are kept brief and then gradually lengthened as child is successful.
9. Have students complete the coloring sheet and use the time to discuss how they may feel when they have to wait while someone else takes a turn but also the benefits of taking turns.
10. Remember to also set up opportunities to practice turn taking and turn taking words (“my turn” “Your turn”) with simple activities (see printable for suggestions)
11. Praise
12. Usually receiving turn or preferred toy is enough reinforcement but if no progress you may introduce a token board to earn a separate reinforcer

Teaching Young Children Perspective Taking- Social Skills Story and Activities
$6.50
Understanding another persons’ point of view or theory of mind, is a topic that is often difficult for students with autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, social cognitive learning delays, or non-verbal learning disabilities.
