Abstract
The social world is a big, complicated place that requires us to constantly figure out hidden rules in situations to help us make sense of how we are all interpreting and responding to each other?s actions and reactions. This book teaches students how to recognize and develop social skills. Every one of us is a Social Detective. We are good Social Detectives when we use our eyes, ears, and brains to figure out what others are planning to do next or are presently doing and what they mean by their words and deeds. This extensively expanded and revised 2nd edition provides all-new illustrations that reflect a broader range of inclusion and diversity in characters, a structured approach to observation, and new and updated lessons which include practice for readers as they learn to become social detectives?a skill set that can then be used everywhere they go, whether it?s at home, school, or within the community. Interventionists will find specific teaching tips and an expanded glossary of Social Thinking Vocabulary and concepts to guide young readers in exploring tools to help them make smart guesses to ultimately figure out the social emotional chain reaction. Enjoy watching your students and own children blossom day-by-day into successful Social Detectives!

Abstract
Thinksheets for Tweens and Teens focuses on the social issues and challenges faced by pre-adolescents and adolescents and introduces social concepts and strategies that can help individuals navigate these tricky years. Social rules and expectations change with age; thinking and behavior that was appropriate in elementary school can quickly become inappropriate and unexpected as students move into middle and high school. We developed these Thinksheets to help educators, therapists, and parents encourage more mature social thinking and related shifts in their students? social skills. The Thinksheets explore a wide range of topics, starting with the basic Social Thinking understanding of the Four Steps of Communication, to exploring the hidden rules of the classroom and when is it okay to correct others. Chapters include What Is Social Communication?, Problem Solving, Lessons on Emotions, Different Perspectives, Being Bossy and Jerky, Lessons on Friendships, The Social Fake and Other Tricks, and Participating in Groups. There are more than 160 Thinksheets across these 8 sections, and all are included on the Mac/PC friendly CD that comes with the book. Material in this book may be used by older students who are less mature or who learn this type of information more slowly.
