Social Inferencing Task Cards Flipbook W/ Real Photos for Speech Therapy

Use this social inferences photo task card flipbook to teach how to look for nonverbal clues to interpret someone's emotions, thoughts, or plan of action in social scenarios. Using real photos will help your students practice making smart guesses about what people think or feel in the inferencing pictures.

Using the making inferences picture task card flipbook will help your students learn the following skills:

⭐Interpret non-verbal cues better
⭐Learn what a person's plan or what they might say/do in a social situation
⭐Build skills to help them shift the perspective of another person
⭐Be able to understand people's motives and feelings

If you work with older elementary or middle school students, they don't get motivated when they see younger-looking clipart pictures. By using real photos, students will be engaged and more eager to participate in the session.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Marissa L. said, "Felice does it again! Truly impressed with all of her resources and this one is no different! I love when I find social perspective taking resources that use real photos that are relatable to my middle schoolers. They hate nothing more than trying to guess what a cartoon character is thinking. The digital google slides version of this resource is so helpful for my students who are remote learning but still have to learn social skills in an engaging way. Thank you!!!!!"

When we teach our students with pragmatic social deficits about social inferencing it can help them be more aware of themselves and other people. Plus, it also works on answering those tricky higher-order thinking questions, which is great for ❤️reading comprehension❤️.

The making social inferences flipbook includes 40 real photos and prompts to discuss what the people could be feeling and how the student made their inference with the picture.

Although this flipbook focuses on inferencing with pictures, you can use this to target other language and articulation goals.

Students can work on the following speech or language skills:

❤️ Describing the photo with sound-loaded words

❤️ Answer wh-questions

❤️ Create a sentence with parts of speech

❤️ Make predictions of what the person might do next

❤️ Discuss the types of dialogue the person could use in the situation

❤️ Identify emotions

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Valerie W. said, "I have used this with mixed groups for language and articulation. The kids (all ages) have had fun telling what they think the people in the pictures are thinking about or saying. I love being able to use it across ages and in mixed groups."

If you are doing teletherapy or assigning activities during distance learning, this resource also has a link to a Google Slide file with these photos. You can easily assign the Google Slide in Google Classroom. You can watch this tutorial on my YouTube channel to see how you can assign this resource to Google Classroom.

Directions for Assembly:

Print the real photo pages, laminate and cut them out. Hole punch and attach with binder rings. Use the interactive social inferences flipbook with a dry-erase marker.

How to Use This Resource:

Start by teaching your students to look
for “clues” in the picture. Have them share what they “see” in the photo.

Then, have your students make smart guesses about the person's feelings or thoughts. Model answers for your students using the first person.

When looking at the photos, you can also work on having your students identify where the person could be, when the situation could be happening, or what the person might do next.
