Every day, children and young people are expected to respond to a wide variety of social situations that occur in their daily lives. This entertaining pack of role-play scenarios helps to prepare them for these situations where they may struggle to respond with appropriate understanding, empathy or listening skills.
This practical resource uses charming, illustrated role-play activities to promote appropriate responses to common social enquires. Appropriate responses to such situations demonstrate a knowledge of ‘social code’ as well as listening and empathy skills. This pack works at an intermediate level. Basic and advanced level resources are also available.
These activities are suitable for children ages 7 to 11.
For more information see below.
Our intermediate-level Social Responses pack contains twelve colourful picture cards, illustrating common social interactions, which are designed to elicit responses and promote discussion. Examples of scenarios covered include dealing with someone expressing thanks, dealing with someone’s bad news, or responding to an invitation.
The pack is based on role-play activities, as well as extension activities. These role plays are helpfully structured at first but also give the opportunity to extend into children drawing on their own experiences to grow the activities further. The pack is structured into four distinct lesson plans and is as easy to use as it is engaging for children and young people. This resource can be used with an individual child but will be most effective in a group setting, as this will generate discussion and facilitate role play.
The resource was devised by Angie Wooten and illustrated by Helen Rippon. Angie has been a practising teacher of the deaf for over thirty years and is a passionate advocate of role play. She co-authored the handbook for teachers Using Drama to Teach Personal, Social and Emotional Skills (O’Hanlon and Wootten, 2007). Her MPhil was in oral communication skills.
