Conversation Starters Double Dice Deck: Add-On Deck

Are you working with students who need assistance in the art of conversing? This Double Dice Deck provides a motivating way to work on conversing about a topic, taking turns, maintaining a topic, contributing information, and reading your conversational partner’s non-verbal language cues. The real photographs make the situations realistic and help focus easily distracted students. This allows you to scaffold the amount of assistance necessary for a successful conversation. Each card contains four different conversation starters:

• Tell me...
• If..., then...
• How...
• Open-ended wh question

Here is how it works:

A student rolls the double dice and it lands on a shape.

The student turns over the card with the corresponding shape.

The student responds to the conversation starter that corresponds to the number indicated on the inner die.

The students get plenty of practice (216 questions/statements) and enjoy using this activity time and time again!

This deck includes:

• Fifty-four (54) total playing cards (cards are large 3" x 5").
• Each card contains a photograph and four (4) conversation starters.
• Content, direction, and game variation cards.
• A storage tin.

The double dice is NOT included in the Add-On deck - it should be purchased separately.
