$29.99 Plus S&H

DVD Quantity:

DVD includes optional English and Spanish subtitles.

We produced this manners video to show students from upper elementary through high school how  to act during some of the most common interactions between people.  It features clear, straightforward demonstrations of appropriate and inappropriate behavior -- and we added a dash of fun to keep adolescent attention spans engaged.  

 

Length: 44 Minutes  (Distributed in the NTSC video format primarily used in the United States and Canada.*)

 

The program covers: personal hygiene, conversations, introductions, telephone and Internet use, table manners, behavior for ladies and gentlemen, manners in public, serving as a host and being a guest. We devote a segment to each subject, so viewers can watch one subject at a time, or play the entire video.  While any student will find it entertaining and helpful, the video should be especially effective for young people who don't easily pick up social skills by themselves, but need clear, specific examples of appropriate manners and behaviors.  A little fun can go a long way in helping your children add social skills to their overall life skills. 

 

Standing too close to people can make them uncomfortable. It's good to stand about 18 inches away from people when you speak with them.

(From "Conversations" section of video.)

 

The DVD's PERSONAL HYGIENE section demonstrates how proper sneezing and coughing techniques and frequent hand washing can reduce the spread of germs and flu virus.

 

Because we're describing, demonstrating and reviewing specific situations, the video is also attuned to the way many children with social skill deficits need to absorb information. Click here to learn more about how this video can be used in a program to help children with conditions such as Asperger Syndrome and High Functioning Autism master basic social skills.

So if you want your children to be comfortable and confident in dealing with people, this video can give them concrete ways to help make that happen.

THE DVD ABOVE INCLUDES THREE VERSIONS OF THIS PROGRAM: THE REGULAR PROGRAM, A SECOND VERSION WITH SUBTITLES FOR VIEWERS WHO ARE DEAF OR HARD OF HEARING, LEARNING ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE, OR ARE VISUAL LEARNERS, AND A THIRD VERSION WITH SPANISH SUBTITLES.

This video is also available in VHS videotape without the optional subtitles. Please call 336-608-4224 to order the videotape version.

(Europe and Australia use the PAL video standard. This NTSC video will play in "dual format" DVD and VHS players designed to accommodate both NTSC and PAL videos.)

"MANNERS FOR THE REAL WORLD" CUSTOMER COMMENTS

"Just a quick note to say thank you for making the Manners video. My students loved it and learned so much from it.  You have made a quality product and I look forward to any other videos you will be promoting in the future."
Teacher
 

Just wanted to let you know that we received the (Manners) video and have watched it several times. My son is 12 and loves the humor! He likes it so much he wants to show it to his weekly social skills club. As a parent I think the video is very well done and a great resource for families like ours. I would definitely recommend it to others.
Parent

"Thank you for the (Manners) video. I am very happy with it. I used it to teach a group of young people at my local church, the elders and leaders were very pleased with it. I was delighted to know that your language, style and humor were universal to all young people regardless of their walks in life. Thank you very much and let me know when you have other programs we can use."
Teacher

"I want to thank you for making such a great video! We recently purchased the "Manners for the Real World" video for our son who was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome. It was great for our 8 year old too. It was just what I have been looking for. We plan on watching it over and over."
Parent

 

"Thank you for producing and making available the wonderful video "Manners for the Real World." My high-functioning autistic son, his sister, and I have been working our way through it (with practice sessions) this summer."

Parent


"I ordered your video "Manners for the Real World" for my friend who teaches at a special ed school in Dallas. I wanted to let you know that it is a big hit with the teachers and kids at the school. They have been working on table manners, and the video is just what they have been looking for."
Educational Software Producer

 

"We have an 18 year old son with AS and yesterday I purchased and previewed your manners video. It is wonderful! You are providing an amazing and as I'm sure you know, desperately needed service. Thank you so much."

Parent

 

I have shown parts of the Manners video (usually either hygiene or conversation) all over the place recently.  Everyone LOVES it.

Teresa Bolick, Psychologist and Author

 

I want to compliment you on the Manners for the Real World video. I'm a parent of a teenage son with Asperger's as well as a documentary producer and found the program clear, well structured and perfect for its audience. My son loved the wrong behaviors with the buzzer and was able to recognize some of his own foibles and laugh at himself. Parent
