*******************************

Many of our students with learning and attention issues have difficulty reading body language. Failure to pick up on non-verbal signals, including body language and gestures, can make it hard for students or children to navigate all sorts of social situations. Body language and gestures convey messages, meaning, and important information beyond what is said. This resource is intended to help students "read" body language and navigate social situations successfully. It is also intended to provide students with opportunities to practice social skills by reading and responding to people’s body languages and gestures in an appropriate, positive manner.

▶️ 12 Scenario Task Cards

The Scenario Task Cards contain highly relevant scenarios related to body language. Students are asked what the person's body language is communicating and what it indicates the person might be feeling.

There are 12 Scenario Task Cards that come in FOUR different variations:

► Set #1: Brown Task Cards with Questions

► Set #2: Brown Task Cards without Questions

► Set #3: B&W Task Cards with Questions

► Set #4: B&W Task Cards without Questions

▶️ 20 Picture Task Cards

• The Picture Task Cards contain highly relevant pictures of people using body language to communicate meaning and feelings. The body languages of the people in the task cards portray body gestures that students are familiar with and that they often see all around them in a variety of real-life social settings and situations. Students are asked what the person's body language is communicating, and what it indicates the person might be feeling.

There are 20 Picture Task Cards that come in 4 variations:

► Set #1: Brown Task Cards with Questions

► Set #2: Brown Task Cards without Questions

► Set #3: B&W Task Cards with Questions

► Set #4: B&W Task Cards without Questions

▶️ SCENARIO WORKSHEETS (Print and Digital)

12 Scenario Worksheets that come in 3 variations totaling 36 worksheets. ANSWER KEYS are included to help facilitate discussions. The scenarios in the worksheets are the same scenarios in the Task Cards.

► Worksheet Variation #1: Contains three questions about what a person's body language is communicating, what it indicates he or she might be feeling, and how you can best respond to the person in that situation. (This is a perfect opportunity for your students to practice social skills and empathy!)

► Worksheet Variation #2: Contains two questions about what would be an appropriate response in the situation presented, and what would be an inappropriate response in the situation presented. (Another great opportunity for your students to practice social skills and empathy!)

► Worksheet Variation #3: Contains the same scenarios with a blank space for you to generate your own question and students write it on the line and answer it.

▶️ PICTURE WORKSHEETS (Print and Digital)

20 Picture Worksheets that come in 2 variations (totaling 40 worksheets). There are 20 worksheets that contain the same pictures in the Picture Task Cards.

► Picture Worksheet Variation #1: Contains two questions about the message the person’s body language is sending, and how the person is feeling. In this worksheet, students have to provide evidence to support their answer about how the person in the picture might be feeling.

► Picture Worksheet Variation #2: A blank space is provided for you to generate your own question and students write it on the line and answer it.

This resource provides a perfect opportunity for your students to understand social cues, interpret body language, practice social skills, and make inferences. This resource features real life scenarios and highly relevant photographs of people. Students with autism spectrum disorders often have the most difficult time with these skills and can benefit greatly from the visuals.

SUGGESTIONS FOR USE:

How/When To Use Scenario Task Cards

• Role-Playing: Students can collaborate in pairs or groups to act out a variety of scenarios and demonstrate appropriate responses. Role-playing activities can also be used to show how "response" skills are used improperly and then asking the 'audience' to help reenact properly. This activity can ultimately improve confidence, communication, and assertiveness skills and further help students understand the difference between appropriate and inappropriate responses to people's body language and gestures.
• Play Writing Exercise: Students can work in groups to create skits or scenes related to body language then perform the skit for the class.
• Writing Response: Students can be given a scenario to read and then write their responses. Students can switch papers with a partner who then reads their responses and determines whether they agree/disagree with their responses/approaches to these real-life scenarios.
• Discussion: Students can discuss the Body Language / Non-verbal Communication Scenario Task Cards in groups or whole class. They can discuss things like “What would you do?”, “Why would you do that?”, and “What are some other options you could consider?”

Target language comprehension & sentence production of temporal and spatial concepts using your speech therapy students' math curriculum! These teaching scripts, Task Cards, & NO PREP Worksheets will help our students understand decimals by targeting language in the context of math. This resource contains math task cards and worksheets to ensure that what we do in our therapy room will generalize in the classroom for our students with speech and language deficits.

All SLPs knows how much language is embedded in our students’ math lessons. It is often taught in the classroom through following directions (“Look before the decimal”) or questioning (“Where is the 2?”), but we know that our students are often unable to follow the directions or answer those questions.

This resource solves that problem! Help students to understand the spatial and temporal concepts needed to learn decimals, while emphasizing expressive language development in order to participate in classroom discussions. Teaching these concepts while using numbers allows for quicker generalization into the classroom.

Included in this resource:

• Teaching Scripts for Before/After and Place Value

• Task Cards/Flash Cards can be used to drill concepts to improve retention. They can be paired with motivating board games. These task cards include:

Teach speech language therapy students or English language learners how to follow 2-step directions containing Before and After! These visual aids and teaching scripts provide a simple way to teach following 2-step directions with these temporal concepts, improving comprehension of multi-step directions.

The Before Beaver teaches students that any direction following the word "before" will come second. We teach this by showing students that anything in the Beaver's tail comes second, because the tail is the second part of its body.

The After Alligator teaches students that any direction following with word "after" will come first. We teach this by showing students that anything in the Alligator's mouth will come first, because the mouth is the first part of its body.

These fun visual strips will keep students engaged while learning to follow these 2-step directions. Smaller visual cards are included to provide even more visual support within the Beaver and Alligator visuals, by placing the cards in the tail or mouth while attempting to follow directions.
