(Worksheet) Social Story: Throwing for Sensory Input

Many young children throw things.  Children engage in behaviors for one of five reasons: escape, avoidance, to get something, to get attention, and for sensory input.  If you are working with a child who seems to be throwing things just because he loves the feeling of throwing (sensory input), it can be helpful to give the child a safe place to throw and teach him not to throw in other locations. This social story will do just that.
