Help students develop emotional regulation, problem solving, and pragmatic language skills with this Size of the Problem deck! Students learn to identify whether a problem is small, medium, or big so they can practice choosing an appropriate reaction and solution. Understanding the size of the problem is a foundational skill for social emotional learning (SEL) and pragmatics. This easy-to-use, interactive deck supports students who may overreact to small problems and need explicit practice matching their responses to real-life situations. Use this deck to: Build self-awareness and emotional regulation Strengthen problem solving and executive functioning Encourage expressive language, reasoning, and perspective-taking Practice justifying answers and persuasion skills You can also extend learning by asking students to generate solutions, explain their thinking, or debate why a problem might fit a different category—making it perfect for higher-level language goals. ❓ Common Questions (Answered!) Who is this deck best for? This resource is ideal for speech therapy, school counseling, social skills groups, and special education. It works well with elementary through middle school students targeting SEL, pragmatics, or problem-solving goals. How can I use this deck with students?
