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

Social cues encompass the signals individuals convey through their body language and expressions. Many students experiencing challenges with social skills struggle to interpret these cues from facial expressions, gestures, and overall body language. When young people miss these cues, they risk misunderstanding people and situations. Recognizing and interpreting social cues effectively can enhance students' confidence, prepare them for various interactions, help them understand their surroundings, respond appropriately to situations, navigate uncomfortable scenarios, and, crucially, prevent potential conflicts.

Product #1: Social Cues SCENARIO Worksheets and Task Cards

✅ This resource features 40 real-life, highly relevant scenarios, offering students ample opportunities to practice interpreting social cues, making inferences, and responding appropriately.

✅ Moreover, this resource is available in Google Slides! Text boxes have been pre-set to facilitate ease of use for both educators and students. Each slide includes two instructional solution tabs, aiding students in case of accidental deletion of text boxes and providing a zoom-in feature for enlarging worksheets. This feature is particularly beneficial for students who may not be familiar with Google Slides or require additional assistance.

▶️ Social Cues Scenario Task Cards (Colored and B&W)

This resource includes 40 Scenario Task Cards, available in Color and B&W, both with and without pre-set questions. Each card presents relatable scenarios, accompanied by a question. Additionally, all scenarios are provided in each color variation without questions, allowing users to create their own questions and activities.

✅ Utilize the Task Cards WITHOUT Questions to formulate your OWN questions!

✅ Incorporate these Task Cards into larger lessons, guided small groups, whole-class discussions, partner interactions before sharing with the class, or individual sessions with a teacher, guidance counselor, or parent/guardian! The Task Cards feature the same scenarios found in the Scenario Worksheets.

✅ Print the Task Cards on gloss or regular paper, laminate them for durability, and consider organizing them on a binder ring for easy access and use.

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

**Role-playing Opportunity: **Engaging in these scenarios offers students a practical opportunity to explore and understand various aspects of interpreting and responding to social cues and body language. Through role-playing, students can develop skills such as reading nonverbal cues, understanding subtle gestures, and responding appropriately in social interactions. This hands-on approach helps students become more adept at interpreting social cues, making informed decisions based on nonverbal communication, and navigating social interactions with confidence.

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

Product #2: Social Cues and Body Language Worksheets and Task Cards

This resource features 25 practical picture worksheets designed to help students practice interpreting social cues, such as body language, and responding appropriately. By engaging with these worksheets, students can enhance their ability to infer people's feelings and situations, enabling them to determine the most suitable responses.

▶️ 25 Picture Worksheets (Same Pictures in the Task Cards)

**✅ **This resource includes 25 Social Cues Worksheets, available in both printable and digital formats, featuring lines and questions for students to record their responses. Each worksheet contains three questions to prompt student engagement.

1. What do you notice about this person’s (or people’s) body language?
2. What do his/her/their cues tell you about his/her/their situation or what he/she/they may be feeling or thinking?
3. What would be an appropriate thing to do or say to someone in this situation?

✅ Answer Keys | Suggested Responses are included to help you lead effective discussions with your students.

✅ The worksheets feature the same images as the Task Cards and give students the opportunity to interpret social cues, make inferences about a person’s emotions, thoughts, and circumstances, and suggest appropriate responses.

▶️ 25 Picture Task Cards

✅ These Task Cards feature images that illustrate a variety of body language cues. They can be incorporated into larger lessons, used in guided small-group sessions, integrated into whole-class discussions, explored in partner discussions before sharing with the group, or even used one-on-one with a teacher, guidance counselor, or parent/guardian. The images match those featured in the Social Cues Worksheets.

✅ Print the Task Cards on glossy or regular paper and laminate them for durability. You can also organize them on a binder ring for easy access and storage.

Task Cards can be used in several ways:

• Writing Response: Students analyze a picture to interpret the person’s body language, identifying feelings, thoughts, and circumstances. Prompts such as "Which social cues do you notice?", "What do these cues suggest?", and "What is the most appropriate way to respond?" encourage deeper analysis. Students can then exchange papers with a partner, who evaluates the responses and offers alternative perspectives.
• Discussion: In small groups or as a whole class, students use the Task Cards to identify social cues, interpret their meanings, make inferences about the person or situation, and discuss appropriate ways to respond.

▶️ POWERPOINT (25 SLIDES – EDITABLE!)

**✅ **This resource includes a 25-slide editable PowerPoint. Each slide contains the same images featured in the worksheets and task cards. You can rearrange or resize the pictures as needed and add your own text.

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

Negative thoughts have a profound effect on students’ academic and social successes, behaviors, emotions, self-esteem, and happiness. Negative thinking and self-talk can hold them back and keep them from their full potential. In cognitive behavioral therapy, there are dozens of thinking errors that cause the mind to believe things that are just not true. Empower students to escape negative thinking by guiding them to reframe negative, faulty thoughts to positive thoughts. These engaging, highly relevant activities, scenarios, and writing/discussion prompts can support you in helping your students develop this critical life skill: the ability to take notice of their thoughts, to step back and view the “bigger” picture, and to decide how to act based on that more realistic perspective.

This Reframing Negative Thoughts Bundle equips middle and high school students with the tools to identify and shift negative thinking patterns using engaging, SEL-based activities. It includes 21 printable and digital worksheets covering self-assessment, thought distortions, social media mindset, and more; 64 real-life scenario task cards and matching worksheets (in color, B&W, and Google Slides) that prompt students to reframe negative thoughts; and 32 writing and discussion prompts provided as task cards and worksheets to spark reflection and conversation.

All resources are available in both print and digital formats with text boxes ready to go—perfect for whole-class, small group, or individual use.
