Coronavirus Social Story

CORONAVIRUS Social Narrative.

I have been avidly following the the Coronavirus crisis and now find myself wanting to fulfill my civic duty.

I have created a FREE Coronavirus Social Narrative to help alleviate fears and anxiety many children may be experiencing at this time.

It seems inevitable now that schools will have to close in an attempt to curb the pandemic Coronavirus crisis.

I posted to my Instagram stories this morning querying if parents required a Social Narative to help their children navigate the coming days.

I was met with a resounding yes.

I have created the social story in a page by page format, so you the parent can include or exclude whatever information you feel is pertinent to you and your family.

It is highly probable at this juncture that schools will close so I have allocated a countdown box within the social story.

This will help your son or daughter to understand in a concrete sense when school will reopen (if known).

Update- due to the overwhelming demand for the Coronavirus Social Narrative I have updated the link with a visual to help you locate it. I am receiving a great many messages requesting a copy to be sent directly.

If you click on the above “Click to download”, you will receive an instant download.

I hope this is helpful.

I have also been in contact with many schools around the globe this morning seeking to print off multiple copies of the aforementioned social stories to give to students.

You absolutely have my permission to do so. Absolutely no need to request permission. It is expressly given here.

I hope you find this Social Story helpful.

Best wishes,

Amanda
