Description:
Students vote with their fingers (1, 2, or 3) to label each of five real-life scenarios — a quiet friend, a "ok" text, a hallway bump, being left out of plans, a teacher correction — as an overreaction, underreaction, or just-right response, then discuss what the balanced answers have in common and why it's easy to misread situations.
