Discuss with students the meaning of the term "body language." Ask them to demonstrate appropriate body language for the following situations:

• listening to a guest speaker

• watching a movie

• interviewing for a job

• discussing a pay raise with their boss

Distribute "Presenting a Positive Image." Discuss each suggestion and give examples as needed.

Divide class into two groups. Ask one group to come up with a skit where appropriate body language is demonstrated.

Ask the other group to come up with a skit that demonstrates the opposite.

Discuss specifics after each presentation highlighting how important appropriate body language is perceived in any situation.
