What educators are saying
The middle schoolers LOVED the zombie theme!! It is such a great analogy for social skills, and the activities are in a game format! This resource is just excellent!
This is a great activity because all kids love zombies. It makes it easy to teach social skills to any student.
Description
Zombies have HORRIBLE pragmatic skills...but you don't have to. Social skills can be difficult to teach but the popularity of zombies makes it a little bit easier. Target nonverbal language skills, tone of voice, personal hygiene and more in a packet that engages your students.

SLPs who have purchased my Don't be a Zombie Pragmatic Language Unit say:
“This is a great product! You have covered so many important areas and summarized the basics on a poster for each! The cards are appealing and can be used for many levels. There's even an adorable (in a zombie way!) game. Thanks so much!”
“Perfect fall activity for my social skills students, and applicable to many of their IEP goals. For some groups, I was able to use 2-3 of the activities, so they have gotten a lot of use already. The students love the zombie theme. A very high-interest and high-quality item, thanks!”
“I run a social skills group for boys ages 7-9, I cannot tell you how much they LOVE this unit. Thanks for your hard work!”
“My middle schoolers love these activities! I like that there are a lot of cards because it gives everyone in my larger groups an opportunity to practice many times. The cards and prompts lead to great discussions and of course the kids love the zombie theme! Great product!”
