**I Can Do It! : Videos for Modeling Social
Skills
Model Me Kids, LLC
345 .726 MOD
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.
With narration: In the first half of the video, the visual is combined with narration and graphics that help explain
the particular rule.
Without narration: In the second half of the video, the same video is repeated without narration and graphics. This
allows a parent, Autism teacher, or therapist to customize the lesson the individual child and/or to test what was
learned in the first viewing of the video.
Each social skill is demonstrated in more than one situation and across environments. This is useful to children
with Autism and Asperger's Syndrome because it helps with generalization of the skill taught.
Graphics and music are used to make the video appealing to children with Autism, Asperger's Syndrome, and
Nonverbal Learning Disorders. A high production value helps keep the child's interest so that he or she will want
to watch many times.
**Learn to Move, Move to Learn : Dinosaurs Brack, Jenny Clark
305.610 BRA
Many children with disabilities have poor sensorimotor integration. In this lively DVD focusing on young children,
get a first-hand view of a theme-based (dinosaurs) sensorimotor lesson. After a brief introduction to sensory
integration and its importance for developing functional skills and adaptive responses to the environment, see
step-by-step how a series of seven sensorimotor activities (warm-up, vestibular, proprioception, balance,
eye-hand coordination, cool-down and fine motor) are combined in fun games and activities to result in better
readiness to learn. The activities use a transdisciplinary approach in an inclusive classroom with typical peer
models. For more fun, purposeful lessons, also read Learn to Move, Move to Learn! Sensorimotor Early
Childhood Activity Themes by Jenny Clark Brack.
