    I love this idea. I'm a new social skills teacher for middle school children. Is there a specific set of questions you would list on a social skills jenga game.

    I'd give little scenarios. For example, "Practice saying Hello, my name is..... with the person sitting on your right." Think of the situations middle school children face everyday and use those as the situations.

    Best wishes with your new job.
