Social Thinking Activities
This week’s social skills lesson is book #5 in our Incredible Flexible You Social Thinking Curriculum. The book is called “Whole Body Listening.”
Have your child watch this week’s social skills video, which includes the read aloud of “Whole Body Listening.”
Then, if you’d like, have them complete the following activity (or activities):
1) Draw a self-portrait (remember to check for all your body parts head to toe!)
2) Use a yellow crayon or marker to circle the parts of the body that you use for “whole body listening.” (Go back and watch the story again if you can’t remember).
3) Demonstrate to a family member what “whole body listening” looks like
Extra extension activities:
4) Game: Which body part isn’t listening?
- Sit or stand across from your child. Move one body part. See if he/she can guess which body part isn’t doing “whole body listening.”
- Then, switch rolls and have your child move a body part while you guess.
5) Using your self-portrait, try writing the names of each body part. (Think about the sounds you hear and try to think about what letters might be in each word!)
And now we’re off to LETTERLAND!

Pick one game to play each week based on your child’s interest or the level they are at with their letters/letter sounds. These games will continue as we review our letters over the next few weeks. You can play them multiple times
- Match the uppercase letters with their same letter pair.
- Place all the letters face down and play a memory game
- Do a “Quick Dash” game. (Show the letter. They say the name of the Letterlander they see. Then say the sound. Last, the letter name. “Lucy Lamplight, /l/, L”)
See the video below.
