Description
Your students will get plenty of conversation practice with this activity of 48 social scenario cards! Each card provides a new scenario where they must look "between the lines" to identify what the person might really mean.
These cards are divided into two categories: understanding indirect language and using indirect language as a means to be polite and not too direct.
Understanding and using indirect language can be challenging for students, but these conversation task cards will give them plenty of practice.
SAVE TIME SESSION PLANNING!
These task cards will help to take therapy session planning and brainstorming OUT of your hands and should last you several therapy sessions. When mixed with other task card decks or therapy activities, this deck alone should last months for a weekly student!!
A QUICK AND EASY "GO TO" FOR YOUR TOOL BAG!
Very low prep (just print and go, or even quicker - just read from your laptop/tablet!).
WHAT'S INCLUDED?
- PDF file of 48x task cards
- Coloured AND black and white version

WHO CAN USE THEM?
Regular education teachers, special education teachers, SLPs, OTs and other support professionals could all benefit from using these task cards with their students. These cards are specifically designed for middle and high school aged students.
HOW DO I USE THEM?
*These task cards can be used for an individual, a small group or a class*
Individual ideas:
o Side activity during a board game or other therapy activity!
o A “break” between therapy activities if the other activities are worksheet-heavy or targeting another skill!
o Use these cards as a therapy activity itself (I do!)
o “Warm up cards” for the start of each session.
o Quick assessment of skills.
o Homework.
o Use them as conversation prompts/starters.
You can even use them to simultaneously target additional skills like expressive language, speech, reading comprehension/decoding.
Small group and/or classroom ideas:
o Put the task cards up in different parts of the room (or outside!) and have students walk around with the room with their answer sheets and clip boards.
o Have students get into pairs and talk about their answers and thoughts together.
o Use a card or two each morning as part of a guided class discussion.
o Use the cards as a guide for an open ended quiz. Use the flashcards to ask the class the questions, and get the students to write their answers on a sheet to hand up.
