Social Emotional Learning Task Cards Activity

Social-emotional skills are needed for all students to be successful at school and home. The purpose of these task cards is to have your students read a scenario, think, and share how they would respond. These 20 scenarios are intended to help students build confidence, understand their own strengths and weaknesses, navigate social situations, and make better decisions.

Included in this Resource:

• SEL Activity Link and Tips (2-pages)
• Social Emotional Task Cards (10-pages; Google Slides)
• Social Emotional Task Cards (10-pages; PDF)

Example Scenarios:

• Scenario #14- Some friends are planning to go to a camp in the summer. The problem is that they don’t want to invite your neighbor friend.
• Scenario #17- During music class, a friend of yours is asked to sing part of a song for your group. You know your friend has social anxiety.
