Fun Ways to Use Free Teen Slang Posters

These ideas are absolutely on fire!

• Create a bulletin board with posters, then invite students to add sticky notes with their own inspirational messages using the latest slang.
• Ask students to work in groups to “translate” each poster into simple language their parents or grandparents can understand.
• Have students choose a poster, then do some research and figure out how to use slang from another era to send the same message. (For example, “Bruh, you can’t be late just because you think you have energy,” could become “Man, it sucks that you’re always late just because you think you’re a bomb,” or “Man, it’s so exhausting that you’re always late—you’re not as smart as you think you are.”)
• Share some slang that was popular during your teenage years and talk about the origins of these phrases. How did slang spread among teenagers before the internet, before social media?
• Invite students to create their own new slang or phrase and see if they can make it popular at your school and beyond!
