Social Scripts

  • Social scripts are based on specific events and situations that have occurred in the child’s situation
  • Intentionally teach desired social behaviour
  • Can have different actions and endings to compare and contrast appropriate social behaviour with undesirable social behaviour.
  • Are like a movie/play script
  • Identify specific characters, setting
  • Provide specific things to do and say in a step-by-step (sequential) manner
  • Usually only involve 3- 10 steps
  • First 3 statements will be the same
  • the behaviour will be different
  • there the consequences will change

Tips for using Social Scripts:

•When introducing the concept – find 3-5 incidences of positive behaviour and use green cards

•Relate this to the way actors use scripts

•Colour code the scripts

Use red cards for the description of the undesired behavioural sequence

Use green cards for the description of the desired behavioural sequence
