Description
Hands Down. Stay Safe. Is It Safe to Touch? (Yes/No) Help students build a simple safety routine before acting. This interactive Yes/No deck teaches students to pause, look, and decide whether it is safe to touch an object. Rather than encouraging curiosity about potentially dangerous items, students practice one consistent safety script: Hands down. Stay safe. Is it safe to touch? By repeatedly answering Yes or No, students practice using this routine when they encounter familiar and unfamiliar objects in everyday environments. The deck is designed to strengthen: Executive functioning through Stop → Think → Decide Safety awareness Self-regulation and impulse control Decision making Functional language Receptive language Visual discrimination Community safety skills This resource is appropriate for students learning functional life skills, including those receiving special education, speech-language therapy, transition services, or other support. It can be used for whole-group instruction, individual practice, independent work, or repeated review to help build consistent safety habits. Future decks will expand this routine into categories of objects and environments, helping students generalize the same safety script across everyday situations.
