Description
A fun and festive activity for working on reading body language, facial expression, nonverbal cues, and gestures! Students are first asked to make an inference about a situation based on context, body language, facial expressions and other forms of nonverbal communication. Next, students are asked a reflection question, to work on abstract language and to facilitate thinking about what caused the situation or what will happen next. This file includes:
- An interactive, editable Google Slides file
- A PDF, compressed to a smaller size for faster loading on distance learning platforms
- A Boom Cards Deck
Please note, you will need a Boom Learning account to use the Boom Cards deck.
Notes on Google Slides
In order to use the Google Slides file, you will need a Google Account.
For a full tutorial on using Google slides, please check out this link: Google Slides Teacher Center
A few quick tips:
- Remember to make a copy and save it to your drive. Do not attempt to edit the file by sending a request for edit access (I cannot grant that, as it would change the file for anyone who downloads it.) Instead make a copy, and you have my permission to fully edit and modify as needed! :)
- In order to use the interactive features of the file, the slides must be in 'edit' mode, not 'presentation' mode.
- If you're new to using Google Slides, I have included a free Google Slides preview of the file. Please feel free to add that to your Google Drive and play around with it before purchasing!
