It’s All on the Inside

Students analyze two short dialogues to determine which characters demonstrate assertive, aggressive, or passive communication. Each passage places students in realistic peer situations, such as planning an activity or preparing a presentation. Learners infer communication styles from tone, language, and actions. The task builds empathy and awareness of personal expression while encouraging reflection on healthy communication habits.
