Helping Others Social Story Pack | SEL Worksheets & Classroom Community

Teach students the value of kindness, cooperation, and helping others with these engaging Social Skills Scenarios! This set introduces real-life situations where children learn how to support classmates, show empathy, and build a caring classroom environment.

With two differentiated levels (Level 1 and Level 2), this resource can be used with early learners, ESL, SPED, and elementary students.
