Numbered activities, separate answer keys and a teaching guide in one ZIP. The pack uses the focused sequence; the complete practice sheet above is an alternative.
Teaching and response guide
- Begin with: Describe the main problem in the situation.
- Connect the response to: Suggest a constructive next step.
- Ask students to apply the idea: What might happen after your suggested step?
Watch for: Assuming one expression proves a single feeling or that only one respectful answer is possible.
Check the answer criteria for each task. A supported explanation may have more than one acceptable response. These activities offer evidence to discuss; completing a sheet alone does not establish mastery.
