Question 1
During a class discussion, a student frequently talks over others and ignores their comments. Which skill would most support more respectful engagement?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The student's behavior indicates a lack of awareness of others' perspectives and social cues. Social awareness involves understanding and empathizing with others, recognizing social norms, and respecting diverse viewpoints, which would directly address the issue of interrupting and ignoring peers, fostering more respectful engagement in discussions.

Question 2
A teacher notices some students react impulsively when transitioning between activities. Which strategy helps students build impulse control during transitions?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The stop-think-act routine teaches students to pause, consider their actions, and proceed appropriately, directly building impulse control skills. Visual cues provide concrete, external supports to guide this self-regulation process, making it more effective than punishing misbehavior, ignoring it, or allowing unstructured movement, which could exacerbate impulsivity.

Question 3
A student refuses to participate in a group activity, saying, "I do not like working with people who do not think like me." Which strategy effectively supports relationship-building?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Using a group task to practice working with different viewpoints directly addresses the student's reluctance by fostering skills in collaborating with diverse perspectives. This approach promotes empathy, mutual understanding, and constructive engagement, which are essential for relationship-building, rather than avoiding the challenge, focusing on superficial politeness, or relying on post-task feedback.

Question 4
During group tasks, a student regularly makes off-topic jokes and disrupts classmates trying to focus. Which strategy would support the student in recognizing how their behavior affects others?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Role-play allows the student to experience group interactions from others' perspectives, fostering empathy and self-awareness. By practicing respectful behaviors in a structured setting, the student can understand the impact of their actions on peers' focus and collaboration, which is more effective than isolating them, ignoring the behavior, or simply relocating them without addressing the root issue.

Question 5
When classmates share personal experiences, a student often makes unrelated jokes. Which SEL skill would most support respectful interactions?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The student's behavior reflects a lack of empathy and understanding of social cues. Social awareness involves recognizing and respecting others' feelings and perspectives, which would help the student understand the inappropriateness of joking during serious personal sharing, thereby fostering more respectful interactions in the classroom.
