Social Scripts are short narratives or stories which assist an individual to learn appropriate social interaction and routine skills which they may be lacking or experiencing challenges with. The story is written from the perspective of the individual using it, with a few key elements. Each page contains one to two sentences with pictures that correspond to the words and focus only on one concept. They visually outline behaviour expectations for a specific setting or situation. They can be in a book format, on a single sheet of paper or written on a long paper strip.

✓ Include Who, what and where.
✓ Address the reaction of others and their feelings.
