Winter Pragmatics Fun!

Anyone else feeling the winter blues and ready for a vacation?  How about the thought of lesson planning over vacation scares you?!  I will be taking a much needed vacation over holiday break and am pushing to plan for after break as much as possible now!  With that said, I have several pragmatic and fluency groups that benefit from social skills games and activities.  Therefore, I introduce to you...Winter Pragmatics Fun!


In this file:
-Snowman Topic Maintenance:  Match the statement cards to the appropriate “topic snowmen.”  The statement cards are questions and answers.  Once sorted, students can then rearrange the statements into the correct conversational sequence.

-Hot Chocolate Conversation Starters:  Students can pick a card and elicit a conversation with their group members/SLP.  Feel free to use a timer to help students maintain the conversation for a prolonged period of time.

-Good Snowflake vs. Bad Snowflake:  Students can sort various behaviors, actions, and statements to the appropriate snowflake.  Great for eliciting discussion on appropriate behaviors.


-Mitten Manners:  Students can use question cards to elicit responses about appropriate manners.  Students can use the mitten board game with this activity to reinforce correct responses.
