Use Video Modeling to Build Social, Behavioral, and Communication Skills

How Evidence-Based Video Modeling Lessons Improve Social Behavior

Young children learn best when they see skills modeled in real-life situations. Everyday Speech videos feature diverse, age-relatable student actors in social scenarios students encounter every day.

From sharing toys and joining group play, to managing big feelings and listening to teachers, our video modeling lessons make abstract concepts concrete and easy for young learners to practice.

Student actors model real-life situations that feel relatable and authentic

Thought bubbles make inner thoughts visible and foster empathy

Every scenario shows the “why” behind the action to strengthen social cognition

Easy-to-follow Units Make Teaching No-Prep

Every unit introduces a skill with a video lesson, then reinforces it with interactive games and worksheets. Our curriculum scaffolds skills over time and makes your social skills lessons effortless.

Easily follow the curriculum to build foundational skills, or choose to target a specific skill like taking turns, handling transitions, or expressing emotions.

What Educators Are Saying

Read More Testimonials

This program influenced my students’ social development in such a positive way. I’ve never seen such independence and social awareness develop so smoothly with a Kindergarten class as I had this year. With consistent implementation of the lessons and opportunities to practice the strategies, my students had tangible tools to use to self-regulate their emotions and bodies that they could apply within the classroom and at home.

Alison Martin

Kindergarten Teacher

The video modeling lessons captivate Kindergarten to sixth graders. The videos are just long enough and provide enough “think time” for both GE and special education students. The thought and speech bubbles reinforce problem solving skills. My students also enjoy the interactive games. Their ability to wait for their turn, stay engaged with the group and participate keeps growing.
