★ Social Cues | Non-verbal Cues | Body Language

★ 91 pages

★ Print and Digital

★ Suitable for Middle and High School Students

★ Sample Responses | Answer Keys included

★ SEL-related topic!

This resource includes:

★ 25 Social Cues Worksheets with Pictures and Questions

★ 25 Social Cues Worksheet Sample Responses

★ 25 Social Cues Picture Task Cards

★ POWERPOINT (Editable | 25 slides)

★ 3 Editable Version Worksheets

★ Google Slides link (for worksheets)

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

This resource is also available in Google Slides, with pre-made text boxes for easy use by you and your students. Each slide includes two instruction tabs—one for restoring deleted text boxes and another for zooming in to enlarge worksheets. These features are especially helpful for students who are less familiar with Google Slides or may need extra support.

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

Social cues—expressed through body language and facial expressions—are a constant part of students’ lives, whether or not they are directly interacting with others. Students with social skills challenges may struggle to interpret these cues, including facial expressions, gestures, and overall posture. Misreading social cues can lead to misunderstandings and difficulties in navigating social situations. Strengthening the ability to recognize and interpret these signals can boost students’ confidence, deepen their understanding of their environment, help them respond appropriately in different situations, manage uncomfortable encounters, and, importantly, prevent potential conflicts.

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

This resource includes 25 practical picture worksheets that help students practice interpreting social cues, such as body language, and responding appropriately. Through these activities, students strengthen their ability to infer people’s feelings and situations, allowing them to choose 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. This PowerPoint is a versatile tool for guiding your lesson, supporting picture analysis, and encouraging meaningful discussions.

▶️ 3 EDITABLE Social Cues Picture Worksheets

**✅ Editable Picture Worksheet #1: **In this editable version, you may add any picture you like. All other elements on this page are locked and cannot be edited due to copyright restrictions.

**✅ Editable Picture Worksheet #2: **In this editable version, you may add any picture you like and enter your own text in the boxes. All other elements on this page are locked and cannot be edited due to copyright restrictions.

Writing Linear Functions From Patterns BTC Thin Slicing Lesson | Grade 8 Math

By EZMath

This lesson has everything you need to teach a "Thin Slicing" lesson on writing linear functions from a visual pattern for 8th grade math. These progressively challenging task cards start students with simple picture patterns starting at Step zero and progress up to growing and shrinking patterns with large gaps in between each step. This lesson with printable task cards uses Building Thinking Classrooms strategies for teaching math created by Peter Liljedahl. If you have been looking to implement the Building Thinking Classrooms model of instruction, but don't know where to start, this is a great resource for you.

This lesson works great as an introduction to linear functions using visual patterns instead of the usual tables, graphs, and scenarios. Your visual learners with thrive as they are able to explain how they see each pattern growing, then connect that growth to the constant rate of change in a linear function.

This lesson includes the following materials:

  • Complete instructions on how I run a "Thin Slicing" lesson using Vertical Non-Permanent Surfaces (VNPS) in my own classroom.
  • 11 Full-Size Task Cards on writing linear functions from a visual pattern.
  • Answers for all Task Cards.
  • "Notes To My Future Forgetful Self" Student Notes Template.
  • Student Notes answer key.
  • "Check Your Understanding" student Exit Ticket.
  • Exit Ticket answer key.

Once the thin slicing lesson is complete, students can use the provided notes template to record their thinking, as well as complete a "Check Your Understanding" exit ticket to give you and your students formative assessment feedback on how they are understanding the topic.

If you enjoy this product, please leave a review and check out my other products. I will be adding more Thin Slicing lessons in the future based on this model.

If you would like to know more about how I use Building Thinking Classrooms in my own class, check out my blog. I am also creating and refining more thin slicing lessons, so follow my store or check back regularly to see what's new.

Peer Pressure Scenarios Peer Pressure Situation Cards | Peer Pressure Worksheets

By Queen's Educational Resources

Peer Pressure Scenarios | Peer Pressure Situation Cards | Peer Pressure Worksheets

ABOUT THIS RESOURCE

★ Peer Pressure Scenarios

Features 48 Peer Pressure Scenarios

★ Task Cards and Worksheets

77 pages

Print and Digital

Suitable for Upper Middle and High School- Level students/Young Adults

This resource includes:

48 Peer Pressure Scenario WORKSHEETS (Writing Responses)

48 Peer Pressure COLORED Task Cards

48 Peer Pressure B&W Task Cards

LIST of Peer Pressure Scenarios (Easy Access for Teachers)

Google Slide Link

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

This resource is also included in Google Slides! Text boxes have already been created to make it easier for you and your students! Each slide includes two instruction solution tabs for when students accidentally delete text boxes and when they want to zoom in (to enlarge worksheets). It's super helpful for students who are not that familiar with how to use Google Slides or need the extra assistance.

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

Peer pressure is real and all too common! Teens constantly experience all kinds of peer pressure both in and out of school. Peer pressure can ultimately affect teens' decision-making, behaviors, attitudes, and outlook on life. It's often hard to navigate difficult situations and say no, especially when there is a strong human need to fit in and feel important.

This resource focuses on negative peer pressure, providing opportunities for teachers, educators, counselors, and parents to:

help students make better decisions when it comes to awkward or difficult situations

help students say "no" when they have to

help students set and communicate social boundaries

help students consider the possible consequences of choices

help students build confidence

Additionally, these scenarios allow opportunities for you to teach your students exit strategies or ways to say "no" to negative pressures. Together, you can think through strategies on how to deal with those scenarios if they arise. This can even be done by discussing the scenarios and role-playing. It is helpful to think about these things ahead of time rather than dealing with situations as they occur or trying to recover after they happen.

The scenarios encourage students to think about and practice how to:

  • navigate difficult situations and challenges with peers and close friends
  • practice and suggest ways to say no
  • have difficult conversations with the very people they spend a great deal of time with
  • build confidence in managing their emotions
  • handle challenging situations with a sense of maturity
  • improve social skills and behavior
  • evaluate best solutions in different situations
  • solve problems

This resource features (and is centered around) 48 REAL-LIFE, peer pressure scenarios/situations that teens and young adults experience daily in school and out of school. Students read the scenarios and write, discuss, or create role-plays/skits on how to maturely handle peer pressure in these situations.

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

✅ TASK CARDS

This resource includes 48 Peer Pressure Scenario Task Cards that come in the following variations:

  • 48 Peer Pressure COLORED Task Cards
  • 48 Peer Pressure B&W Task Cards

The Scenario Task Cards can be used as part of a larger lesson, in guided small groups, whole-class discussions, partner discussion before sharing out with the larger group or class, or even one-on-one with a teacher, guidance counselor, or parent/guardian! These two different Task Cards variations contain the same scenarios. You can print the Task Cards out on gloss paper or regular paper and laminate. You may also organize them in a binder ring.

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

✅ SCENARIO WORKSHEETS (Print and Digital)

This resource also includes 48 WORKSHEETS with lines, so students can write their responses. The worksheets include the same scenarios in the Task Cards.

These worksheets are great for “Quick Writes,” Do Now activities, Note-Taking/Reflection periods, Formative Assessments, or can simply be used as part of a larger lesson or discussion! They include breath-taking borders, fonts, and clip arts by other contributing artists.

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

✅ LIST of Peer Pressure Scenarios

Also included is a LIST OF SCENARIOS to allow easier access for teachers to read and select scenarios to work with. It’s like an overview page of the scenarios listed in the Task Cards!

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

❤️ How/When To Use the 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 demonstrate how to appropriately handle or navigate negative peer pressure. Students will be exposed to a variety of ways they can handle negative peer pressure. This activity can ultimately improve confidence, communication, and assertiveness skills.
  • Icebreaker: This can be a great way to start a meeting, training session, or team-building activity. It’s also a great way to get students to get to know each other and buy into the purpose of an upcoming activity or lesson.
  • Play Writing Exercise: Students can work in groups to create skits or scenes 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/ situations.
  • Discussion: Students can discuss the Scenario Task Cards in groups or whole class. They can discuss things like “What would you do?”, "How can you respectfully handle this situation," “Why would you do that?”, and “What are some other options you could consider?”

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

This resource is also included in the following discounted bundles:

  • Peer Pressure BUNDLE
  • SEL Mega Bundle
  • We Beat The Street BUNDLE
  • ELA/SEL MEGA BUNDLE
