Description: This Social Skills lesson introduces the art of sending texts and cellphone 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 lesson will help your OLDER special education student navigate the world of texting and phone calls with finesse. From Identifying feelings and emotions, tone, being sympathetic and using a 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 on how your students THINK- then target that skill in your own practice. Included are 70 cards complete with 25 scenarios, 23 multiple choice prompts, 6 drag and drop “friend meters” which ask your student to assess a response, and lastly 6 fill in the blank prompts (which ask your student to reply in an appropriate text or message).
