Success Stories

Video Stories are a combination of two research-validated teaching strategies- social stories and video modeling. Video Stories provide your students with the essential information to understand a skill paired with the most intense kind of visual support, video clips of the students themselves acting out the skill. Once the students see themselves as the "Movie Stars" they may begin to imitate themselves and initiate their new skills in various settings. This powerful teaching tool can be extremely motivating and effective for connecting with your students, communicating clearly what they need to know, and turning difficult situations into Success Stories.
I have written a guidebook to help you through the process of creating your own Video Stories in PowerPoint 2003, PowerPoint 2007, Windows Movie Maker, and iMovie. The book is also full of ideas and stories about how we have used Video Stories to teach appropriate behavior, schedules & routines, classroom expectations, language development, social skills, academic concepts, and much more.
