Item Description

 

Help St. Elizabeth School Implement its SOCIAL THINKING Program with these WISH LIST REGISTRY Items!

Through the SES Bull & Oyster Roast's online auction, SES donors can “buy” items for the school, just like you might for a wedding or baby registry!  Items, such as the one described below, help students during therapy sessions, in the classroom, and beyond. This year, our Wish List Registry is filled with curriculum 
notebooks, books, posters, and other items needed to help SES adopt a SOCIAL THINKING program school-wide.  Social Thinking is an expansion of PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports) and teaches students how their behavior directly impacts those around them. In other words, it teaches them to think beyond themselves and gives them a deeper understanding of those around them.

Four Posters for the Classroom & Treatment Room

The idea for our Social Thinking posters came from repeated requests by educators across America for explicit visual information they could use in the classroom to reinforce some of our core Social Thinking concepts. Teaching in a classroom requires that students not only attend to what they are learning but also be actively engaged in appropriate social behavior for that environment. These posters help keep that learning on track by providing a constant visual reference of key social concepts.

All four posters provide information in a lighthearted way, encouraging humor and interaction in teaching Social Thinking and related skills. They provide an avenue for teachers and students to engage in concrete, explicit discussions about defining the variables that encourage more appropriate Social Thinking in the classroom. Not just for students with social learning challenges, the teaching concepts on these posters can help ALL students become better social thinkers and classroom participants. A perfect learning tool for the classroom, a therapy room, or even in the home.

  • Coping with Boring Moments: Helps students understand the expected and unexpected behaviors related to boredom. (36" x 24")
  • Being Part of a Group: Lays out the four steps of perspective taking that are at the heart of our social thinking and keep us working together as a group. (24" x 36")
  • Social Behavior Mapping – Dry Erase Template: Provides a visual map that helps students connect the dots between their own and others' thoughts, emotions, and behavior. The dry erase surface means the poster can be used and reused across the day and different contexts. (24" x 36")
  • Social Behavior Mapping – Listening to the Teacher Talk: A sample map filled out to give students a visual tool for the expected and unexpected behaviors involved in being part of the classroom learning environment. (24" x 36")
