Studies of social behavior in children with Down syndrome enrolled in regular schools has not been frequent in the area of behavior analysis. Social story ( Gray , 1994) is a strategy with well-defined characteristics , used to describe skills , answers that would be considered appropriate for a given context , and this could produce changes in people's behavior . The aim of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of different interventions (Social Story; Differential Reinforcement ; Differential Reinforcement and more Social Story ) to promote socially appropriate to the school setting in children with Down syndrome enrolled in regular school behaviors. The study included two children diagnosed with Down syndrome, female, aged 9 years and 1 month and 9 years and 5 months. Participant 1 was attending the 3rd year and the second participant attending the 2nd year, both in Elementary Education I. The selection of target socially appropriate responses to the school context was established together with the teachers. For 1 participant the target response was to play / approaching other children during the break / recreation and for participant 2 to target response was feeding properly without touching the colleagues in order to move them, the lunch period. A Social Story was written for each participant, the target response selected considering. The design was a multiple treatment ABCD. After a period of base (A) line, each participant initiated the procedure for experimental condition. For participant 1 was his design: Differential Reinforcement (B); Social Story (C) and Differential Reinforcement more Social Story (D). For participant 2 was his design: Social Story (B) Differential Reinforcement more Social Story (C) and Differential Reinforcement (D). Altogether 1 participant underwent 28 sessions and 22 sessions for participant 2. The results indicated that the two participants performed better, ie greater occurrence of socially appropriate behaviors in the experimental condition Differential Reinforcement more social than the Social Story and Differential Reinforcement conditions used as a single intervention. Furthermore, by analyzing the occurrence of target responses throughout the twenty minute observation in each session, one realizes that the Social Story seems to guarantee higher responses at the beginning of the observation period than at the end. The opposite occurs with Differential Reinforcement condition, this procedure maintains the target response occurred up to the end of the period
