Description
Teens with language learning delays often require direct social communication support. In 8 scenarios, target these four pragmatic goals: *Perspective-Taking *Communication Repair *Conversation Management: Initiation, interjection, maintenance, termination *Code Switching/ Modification of Communication related to the setting/partner 8 Scenes offer practice in one of these four areas (2 opportunities to practice each of the 4 skills). Two levels of difficulty; multiple choice or open-ended prompts, with feedback for the multiple choices. This Boom Deck is designed for middle- to high-school students who have difficulty navigating social communication and understanding others' perspectives. Stories include dealing with an upset friend who isn't kind to you, misunderstanding someone else's conversation, using slang when it's not appropriate to the situation, misunderstanding a text, and more.
