 Do you need help engaging your students in social skills activities?
► Do you need functional, relatable social language questions?
► Do you want a structured resource that covers a variety of pragmatic goals?
► Do you need activities that work for one-on-one sessions and group sessions?

✅ WHAT’S INCLUDED:

School Situation Cards
Place the cards in 2 piles face down – store & situations. Have the student pick one card from each pile, applying the situation to the room and answering.
These situations are the most basic and result in a straightforward answer.

Social Conversations
Pages discussing “Introducing Yourself and Starting Conversation”, “Asking & Answering Questions”, and “Body Language”. Includes 6 open-ended or multiple-choice questions per page.

Pick Your Adventure Pragmatics Book
Includes: School map, 6 pages with 4 corresponding scenarios on each page.

The student makes 3 choices:
1. Choose a school location
2. Choose if it’s a new school or your same school
3. Choose if they have their teacher or a substitute

There are 24 possible options to choose from. Each one has a separate scenario.

Social Experience Web Maps
Includes: “Going on a field trip to the zoo” and “You have a presentation in class”
Each page shows a web map starting from the beginning of the experience to the end, with various social situations that arise. The student is asked to find solutions incorporating many pragmatic skills. Start at the beginning of the web diagram, read & answer each situation before moving on to the next box. Works great for group discussions.

Personal Reflection Worksheet
Single page with questions about difficult social situations and how to overcome them.

“Roll the Dice” Pragmatics Game
A generalization activity that targets thinking of a problem & solution. The purpose is to think about the social scenarios that may arise before you are put in a particular situation. This is the most challenging activity in the packet.
