Make a Simple Phone Call builds practical phone communication and independent living skills for preteens and teens. Learners prepare a purpose, verify an official number, choose a quiet place, introduce themselves, state a clear reason, record key details, and close the call politely. Includes 54 sequential Boom Cards: 18 instructional cards, 12 multiple-choice questions, 6 true-or-false questions, and 18 three-picture questions with individually selectable answers and immediate feedback. Age-respectful examples use an appointment-time call, a short call script, fictional practice contact information, and confirming Tuesday at 2:30. Students also identify unnecessary private details and practice asking for repetition instead of guessing. Useful for Life Skills, Special Education, Autism support, functional communication, telephone skills, self-advocacy, community learning, and transition instruction. Diverse cartoon artwork supports individual or teacher-guided practice. Original artwork created using OpenAI’s built-in image generator and reviewed for lesson alignment.
