Day 6, and we’re learning how to solve our own problems. We’re also talking about our last two class rules. Be honest and be safe. I start off the lesson by talking about why it’s important to be honest and tell the truth, and then how my number one job is to keep them safe at school, and they need to help me with this. We’re going to read two books about problem solving. A big guy took my ball, and then the social story, talk and work it out.

While their puppets are in their lap, I’m explaining each problem solving skill. And then I say, puppets up. And it’s time to act it out and sing the song. If you’re a problem solver, say, please stop. If you’re a problem solver, say, please stop. If a. If a problem has you stuck? Here’s how to change your luck.

How to change your luck. If you’re a problem solver, say, please stop. Please stop. I don’t like that. I don’t like that. Good job, buddy. I want to do like that.
