About

The Time for School™ video presents social skills in the context of school. It features elementary school-aged children demonstrating appropriate social skills in the classroom, library, on the playground, and in the hallway. Each scene lasts between 30 seconds and 3 minutes, depending on the chapter. At the end of each chapter is a storyboard summarizing the rules taught.The video is hosted by a young boy, who narrates each scene. The visual is combined with narration and graphics that help explain the particular rule. Each social skill is demonstrated in more than one situation and across environments. This is useful to children with Autism because it helps with generalization of the skill taught.

Video modeling is a powerful tool for teaching social skills to children with Autism. Through carefully curated videos, students can observe and learn appropriate social behaviors, communication strategies, and interpersonal interactions. The visual nature of video modeling caters to the strengths of many individuals with Autism, offering a structured and repeatable format for learning.

Time for School™ depicts various social scenarios, such as classroom activities, peer interactions, and group engagement. Breaking down these situations into manageable steps, video modeling helps children understand and imitate the expected behaviors. It also provides a consistent model for social cues and helps children navigate the complexities of social dynamics in a controlled environment.

By incorporating video modeling into the school curriculum, educators create an inclusive and supportive learning environment, promoting the development and generalization of crucial social skills for children with Autism.
