For each sign, students are given specific teaching and an opportunity (multiple choice or type response) to demonstrate their understanding of the material. 16 slides where students use a sarcasm checklist to decide if the background information, tone (audio clips included) and body language indicate sarcasm. If sarcastic, students type how they could make it a sincere message and can record themselves! 7 slides on interpreting sarcasm, where students read and listen and type the true meaning of what the sarcastic person was saying in a thought bubble. The last slide has students rate their comfort detecting sarcasm using emojis. Real photographs of middle school, high school and young adults are used and mutiple skin tones are represented. Students have the option to hear audio directions. Where indicated, students can record themselves and play it back. Audio clips are included.
