Skill #6: SOCIAL CUES [DIGITAL]

The “Social Cues” module from Heart & Mind Matters’ SEL for the Wholesome Child curriculum teaches children how to recognize and use the unspoken signals people share through facial expressions, body language, and tone of voice. Students learn that these cues reveal what others are thinking and feeling, even when no words are spoken.

Through engaging lessons, examples, and interactive games, children practice interpreting social cues and using their own in ways that help others understand them better. They explore how social cues can change the meaning of what is said, strengthen communication, and build stronger relationships.

With clear objectives and generalization goals, this module helps students develop empathy, emotional awareness, and effective communication skills. They gain the tools to navigate social situations with confidence, whether in school, at home, or in the community.

Ideal for educators, therapists, and parents who want to help children improve their nonverbal communication and social understanding.
