This social skills game is a fun way to discuss examples of self-control with students!
With a limited number of response cards students have to think creatively to choose the best option for the self-control scenarios.
Includes:
- 12 Scenario Cards
- 32 Response Cards
Directions: Give each student 4 response cards. Students take turns flipping over the big scenario card and reading it aloud. Students put down a card that best matches the scenario and would be an expected behavior. The game is funny as some of the cards won’t make sense at all in the scenario and make it sound silly. The student with the scenario card reads each response card aloud and chooses the one that best fits the situation. The student who turned in that response card wins that round. Players keep 4 response cards in their hand at all times, grabbing a new one at the beginning of each round. The first player to win 3 scenario cards, or who has the most scenario cards when the cards run out, wins the game!
*This game is played similarly to Apples to Apples™
