2. What is Superflex?
Superflex Social Thinking Curriculum is a fun, motivating, and non-threatening way for our students to explore social thinking while:
Increasing their knowledge of
expectations.
Increasing their awareness of their own behaviours.
Learning how to modify their behaviours with Superflex strategies.

3. Who is Superflex? Our hero!
Totally flexible, trying to figure out people’s wants and needs to keep other people calm while also getting his turn to play and speak as well.
He is a great problem solver and can think of many different solutions to one problem.

5. Superflex Lunch Groups
Eight students were identified with weak social skills.
Invited to attend lunch group once a week (approx. 20 minutes).
Four students come on Monday with a friend and four come on Tuesday with a friend.
Encouraged to invite a new friend each week.

6. Introducing Superflex and Unthinkables
Introduced Superflex, and all his wonderful qualities, and why we all want to be flexible like him.
Unthinkable characters were slowly introduced and a lot of time given to real life scenarios from the students.
Each character takes about 4 lunch groups to really be understood by the students.
We were able to introduce 3 characters from February to May.

7. Videos
The students were very excited about how they could use their “Superflex” powers to “defeat” the Unthinkables and they wanted to make mini videos to share with the school.
The students came up with their own scripts for Superflex, Rock Brain and Glass Man.
We used Photostory to take pictures of the different scenarios and had 2 different student narrators.
