Description: This Social problem solving - Texting etiquette for teens lesson introduces the art of sending texts and cell phone etiquette. In today's digital age, effective communication is key, and many students don’t know how to text message or use a cell phone in a socially appropriate way. This Social Filter Activity will help your OLDER special education student navigate the world of texting and phone calls. From Identifying feelings and emotions, tone, being sympathetic, and using a “Digital” speech filter . This lesson will point to common errors teens may make when trying to express themselves through text and/or phone calls. I’ve used situations that I have seen my own students struggle with and address issues such as white lies, speech filters, apologies, and empathy. Gain insight into how your students THINK—then target that skill in your own practice. Included are 70 cards complete with 19 scenarios, 23 multiple-choice prompts, 6 drag-and-drop “friend meters” that ask your student to assess a response, and 6 fill-in-the-blank prompts that ask your student to reply in an appropriate text or message.
