Information
Description
What It Is:
This is an educational worksheet designed to help children practice social skills, specifically how to show interest in others. It presents three scenarios describing individuals named Jack, Michael, and Sarah, along with their interests. For each scenario, the student is prompted to write three questions they could ask that person to show interest in them. The worksheet includes visual cues like a face, iPod, and trampoline icons next to each scenario.
Grade Level Suitability:
This worksheet is suitable for late elementary to middle school grades (3rd-6th grade), depending on the child's social-emotional learning level and reading comprehension. The scenarios are simple, but the task of formulating questions requires understanding of social cues and perspective-taking.
Why Use It:
This worksheet helps develop social skills, specifically the ability to initiate and maintain conversations by showing interest in others. It encourages perspective-taking, question formulation, and understanding of social cues. It can improve communication skills and build empathy.
How to Use It:
Read each scenario aloud with the student. Discuss the interests of each person (Jack, Michael, and Sarah). Guide the student to brainstorm questions they could ask to learn more about those interests. Encourage them to write three different questions for each scenario on the provided lines. Optionally, have the student role-play asking the questions and responding as if they were the person in the scenario.
Target Users:
This worksheet is particularly beneficial for children with autism spectrum disorder, social communication difficulties, or those who need explicit instruction in social skills. It can also be used for any child who needs to improve their conversational skills and ability to show interest in others.
