Model Me Tips & Tricks
The Model Me Tips & Tricks™ video features upper elementary, middle, and high school-aged children demonstrating social skills at school and in the community. Each scene lasts between 30 seconds and 3 minutes, depending on the chapter. The visual is combined with narration and graphics that help explain the particular rule. At the end of each chapter is a storyboard summarizing the rules taught.
Hosted by children from the video, who narrate each scene.
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.
Graphics and music are used to make the video appealing to children with Autism.
