Social Script Planning Workbook

"Promotional graphic from ClimbRx showing two pages from a resource described at the bottom as a Fillable PDF Planner and Drag-and-Drop Story Template. The left page is titled 'Social Script Planning Workbook' and contains three sections: an Introduction explaining that the workbook helps caregivers create social scripts that support children by providing clear, helpful information about what to expect in various situations; What Social Scripts Do, describing social scripts as narrative support tools that break down situations, concepts, or events into simple understandable language, often with illustrations or photos, to help people mentally rehearse and understand what typically happens in specific circumstances; and Who This Workbook Is For, noting it is designed for parents, caregivers, and educators to help plan and create descriptive narratives that prepare children for new or changing situations, events, or concepts. The right page shows a sample completed social script titled 'My Story About: The First Day of School,' featuring a photograph of a brick school building with a sign reading Lincoln Elementary, and partial text reading 'Tomorrow is my first day at Lincoln Elementary School.'"
