Description
This activity will give your students plenty of flexible thinking practice with these 42 scenario cards! Each card features a scenario relatable to teens, where the student must work practice flexible thinking by avoiding jumping to conclusions. They will be required to identify more than one possible interpretation of a given social scenario.
Some students can have difficulty understanding and accepting that there may be more than one possible explanation for a given situation. This can then result in assumptions being made which can hurt both the student and their relationships. It is a skill that is high in demand at school, at home and as students enter the workplace.
SAVE TIME SESSION PLANNING!
These task cards will help to take therapy session planning and brainstorming OUT of your hands and should last you several therapy sessions. When mixed with other task card decks or therapy activities, this deck alone should last months for a weekly student!!
Very low prep (print and go, or even just read from your laptop/tablet!). A quick and easy "go to" to pull out from your therapy tool bag!

HOW DO I USE THEM?
*These task cards can be used for an individual, a small group or a class*
Individual ideas:
o Side activity during a board game or other therapy activity!
o A “break” between therapy activities if the other activities are worksheet-heavy or targeting another skill!
o Use these cards as a therapy activity itself (I do!)
o “Warm up cards” for the start of each session.
o Quick assessment of skills.
o Homework.
o Use them as conversation prompts/starters.
You can even use them to simultaneously target additional skills like expressive language, speech, reading comprehension/decoding.
Small group and/or classroom ideas:
o Put the task cards up in different parts of the room (or outside!) and have students walk around with the room with their answer sheets and clip boards.
o Have students get into pairs and talk about their answers and thoughts together.
o Use a card or two each morning as part of a guided class discussion.
o Use the cards as a guide for an open ended quiz. Use the flashcards to ask the class the questions, and get the students to write their answers on a sheet to hand up.
