Nonverbal Cue Finders Answer Key

Students read several short scenarios and underline or highlight the body language and facial expression clues within each one. They act as “nonverbal detectives,” identifying signs of emotions such as embarrassment, frustration, excitement, or nervousness. Each passage provides multiple cues-slumped shoulders, widened eyes, clapping hands, or turning away-which students must analyze carefully. The worksheet improves observational skills and helps students interpret emotions based on physical behaviors. It also enhances reading comprehension through active text annotation.
