Presentation Transcript

  1. The High Five Poster is used at Albany Creek State School as a strategy to help students respond appropriately to negative social situations. Each of the five steps could be followed in sequence. However, if any student were to feel unsafe it is expected that they would report to a teacher for immediate support. You can help your child by talking about the High Five steps. Ask them what they can do if they feel bullied, for example. Help them to role-play possible solutions to problems. Remember your child needs to know that you trust them to be able to solve their problems and that they can talk to you any time if they need support.

  2. Resilience means Knowing things will be ok tomorrow. ! Bouncing Back after disappointment

  3. Try making social skills instructions WITH your child. Draw pictures or cut them out from magazines. Identify the particular skills your child is ready to learn. Ask your child to explain the pictures to someone else in the family and put them up on a wall or somewhere you can both see them often.

  4. Regular routines can be drawn up in a comic strip format. Keep instructions simple and match pictures to the tasks. Role play with your child to practise the skills they need to learn. Regular routines at home can include going to bed, getting ready for to leave the house, feeding the pets etc.

  5. If you have a lot of visual cards on velcro, try placing them on a felt cloth and hanging somewhere convenient.

  6. This goal chart can be used with stickers. Put a sticker on every time or for every day the child behaves appropriately. This chart says: “I can keep my hands to myself”. You can decide if you would like to reward your child after every 5 stickers or so. Other wise it can just be a record for your child to look at with pride.

  7. If you have made a resource to support social or self-management skills that we could share with other parents/carers, please contact us on (07) 3264 0111 or drop in to the SNAP room
