Each of the components in this package features relevant supportive research along with fun, engaging, and easy-to-use role-play simulations and seven engaging student worksheets that address the most important life skills our students need, including developing empathy; resolving conflict; practicing active listening; decoding non-verbal cues; navigating peer pressure; providing genuine apologies; and displaying sportsmanship. This curriculum is perfect for teachers in elementary schools, counselors, homeschoolers, and out-of-school-program providers. Included in this 33-page Curriculum are the following components and resources: Phase 1: The Core Theory behind Affective, Cognitive, and Compassionate Empathy/ Supporting Material for Role Playing Phase 2: Seven Printable Student Worksheets with Real-Life Role-Playing Scenarios (Decoding Non-Verbal Cues, The Empathy Bridge, I Statement Architect, Active Listening, Peer Pressure Navigator, Apology Blueprint, Sportsmanship & Fair Play) Phase 3: Curriculum Guides, Teachers Visuals, Implementation Guide, and Answer Key This no-prep resource is designed to provide students with a real-world opportunity to transform abstract concepts into experiential learning through safe role-play and mapping experiential empathy.

Immediate digital download is available, and the Curriculum may be easily printed and used immediately or utilized through Google Classroom. Why Schools & Parents are Successful: Both research and classrooms prove this method produces results. The basis for these materials is experiential learning theory, mirror neuron studies, and restorative practice; there is measurable growth in empathy and resolving conflicts. You will find many ready-to-use worksheets, role-play scripts, and teacher guides to help you provide instant lessons that save you hours of planning for your classroom.

Many parents report that their children demonstrate newfound positivebehaviour at home, and schools have successfully adopted this curriculum to reduce relational aggression and meet CASEL standards. Intended target audience: Grades 3 - 6 (approximately 8 to 12 years old) are referenced in every chapter and case study/worksheet in this curriculum as being appropriate for that age range and developmental level. The other target ages of K - 2 will not be appropriate due to more advanced cognitive requirements (the second-order Theory of Mind, perspective-taking, and restorative language frameworks) and to Grades 7+ (middle school) students for their focus on upper elementary social dynamics (recess exclusion, group projects, rumor spreading, sportsmanship).

Proprioceptive Power-Ups: A Gamified Physical Therapy & Sensory

Proprioceptive Power-Ups: A Gamified Physical Therapy & Sensory

With Proprioceptive Power-Ups, you can turn dysregulated classrooms into focused learners. This complete, evidence-based, gamified sensory regulation program takes ‘heavy work’ and transforms it into new fun, student-led Power-Ups. The 27-page digital PDF resource is designed to provide occupational therapy, physical therapy, and real-world classroom viability for students in kindergarten through eighth grade. Using Sensory Integration Theory, Self-Determination Theory (SDT), and micro-learning protocols, Proprioceptive Power-Ups provide sensory seekers with 3-5 minute ‘bursts’ of proprioceptive and vestibular input that calm those under-responding to sensations at the same time dramatically improving attention, motor planning skills, emotional regulation, and other important areas of development. The following features are provided within Proprioceptive Power-Ups: Comprehensive theoretical underpinning (neurobiology of proprioception, tripartite circuit architecture, integration within an MTSS Tier 1-3 model) 10 student workbook worksheets with fill-in-the-blank self-reflection and data tracking to complete before beginning a new series of Power-Ups. Age-divided choice board usages for example K-2 use an imagination engine; 3-5 uses a mission protocol; 6-8 uses biometric optimization. Full-color diagrams, schematics include but are not limited to: Neurological Processing Pathway; 3-Phase Sensory Circuit; Gamification Mechanics Matrix. Examples of IEP goals, tools for collecting data, and case studies demonstrating an overall reduction of 60-78% in both elopement and disruption of classroom activities as compared to pre-Proprioceptive Power-Ups implementation. Instant digital download of entire resource, no preparation required! Proprioceptive Power-Ups are ideal for teachers, occupational therapy specialists (OT), physical therapy specialists (PT), special education teachers/special instructors, and parents who are serving students with or without ADHD, developmental coordination disorder (DCD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), or other classroom sensory processing disorder(s). Why Schools & Parents Are So Happy About It 1. Effectively Calms & Focuses Students: With instant self-regulation through 3–5 minutes of gamified “heavy work” activities, elopement, meltdown, and verbal disruptions have been reduced by as much as 78% in real case study examples. 2. Zero Lesson Prep but Maximum Engagement for the Students: Therapy is turned into play, through Choice Boards and avatar style Power-Ups - giving students choice and control, and saving teachers time while providing maximum engagement for the students in busy classroom settings and for kids on their IEP. 3. Evidence Based and Measured Progress: Easy access to the “whole brain” theory of neuroscience with pre/post data tracking tools and IEP goal templates providing easy documentation of progress to parents and administrators. 4. Age Appropriate From K to 8th Grade: There are differentiated stations and language to keep even the youngest kids excited about (and the oldest kids “cool” about) participating in activities in the same room without being segregated by age. 5. Proven Return On Investment: High impact proprioceptive input (replacing ineffective fidgety tools) will continue to improve time on task, enhance writing skills, and improve working/executive function without the need to sacrifice time during instruction. Target Students and Grade Levels: The resource is geared toward kindergarten through 8th grade (K-8) students. The children that will benefit from this program demonstrate an under-stimulated or dysregulated proprioceptive and vestibular system, including: Sensory Seekers (i.e., crashing, chewing, and pressing too hard); Sensory Under-Responders (i.e., lethargic, floppy, and having low muscle tone); Students with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) - Combined Type; Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD); Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD); Dyspraxia .A general education classroom using a Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) Tier 1 (i.e., universal brain breaks), Tier 2 (i.e., targeted small groups), and Tier 3 (i.e., Individualized Education Plan-specific on Circuit) will also utilize the program as needed. There is built-in scaffolding provided within the program through the following: narrative/imaginative play for grades K-2; challenge-based missions for grades 3-5; and more mature "biometric optimization" language for middle school (grades 6-8) to assist in securing the dignity of the adolescent population.

Do you find that there are many complicated (and sometimes unseen) conflicts in your 4th, 5th, and 6th grade classroom? From conflicts on the playground to having miscommunication on group chat, pre-adolescents have a much more difficult time managing their social world than they ever did before. This curriculum on Conflict Resolution and Peer Mediation is a complete, research-supported program that will help you empower your students with the tools necessary for success in looking at conflict in a way that is positive and productive. This is not just another collection of worksheets; this is a complete Social Emotional Learning (SEL) toolkit that has been created for the modern student. Based on developmental psychology, this curriculum will address the two types of settings in which pre-adolescents experience conflict: the physical environment of the playground and the virtual environment of today's digital world (gaming, social media, texting). Using the use of "scripted roleplay scaffolding" methodology, this curriculum will enable a child to bypass the "fight or flight" response and give them the exact words and tools they need to de-escalate an argument, share their feelings in a healthy way, and resolve conflict. Additionally, by providing the student with a "lexical bridge," they will be able to articulate complex emotions (jealousy, exclusion, betrayal) in a manner that will promote empathy and understanding. What's Included in the 48 Page PDF File Section One - Guidelines for Teachers This section provides an in-depth overview of the theory and methodology used in the development of these scripts along with the reasons behind their creation. It covers issues such as social dynamics of pre-teens, the difference between intent versus impact, and the unique challenges of dealing with conflict in the digital world (Online Disinhibition Effect). Section Two - Eleven Worksheets for Students These are the main component of the curriculum and consist of eleven interactive worksheets that incorporate real-life scenarios faced by students on a daily basis. The worksheets cover a broad range of scenarios dealing with: Group Chat Misunderstanding (Roblox, text messaging) Disputes between Playground Rules (Four Square) Digital Exclusion (Multi Player Gaming, Minecraft) "I Was Only Playing" and Cyber Bullying Rumors, Gossip, and Broken Trust The Challenge of Inclusion (Cafeteria Seating) De-Escalation Strategies for Youth Valuing Digital Property and Creations Section Three - This teacher resource package includes all necessary materials needed to complete each portion of the curriculum. Visual Support: Printable, easy-to-read diagrams outlining the Peer Mediation Pathway, conflict escalation, and I-Statement structure. Complete Answer Key: Sample answers for all questions in the curriculum supporting main concepts of de-escalation and restorative language. Full Implementation Guide: Step-by-step directions for introducing your curriculum, implementing role-playing (including "Fishbowl" method), differentiating for all learning levels, and addressing and assisting with common challenges. Provide your students with a lifelong gift: confidence and ability to develop healthy friendships and resolve conflicts calmly and with compassion. This curriculum is for teachers, counselors, social workers and administrators.

Why Parents Schools Appreciate It: Provides the Exact Words: Rather than telling children what to do, it gives them exactly how to express themselves in situations of high stress. This "lexical certainty" is a game changer for those children who become overwhelmed by a situation and don’t know what to say. Addresses Today’s Technological Conflicts of the New Millennium: This curriculum goes beyond teaching children outdated scenarios to dealing with real types of digital situations that they face today, such as gaming exclusion, misunderstandings with friends on a group text message, and dealing with the impact of a “seen” message. Therefore, it is extremely relevant and effective. Research-based & Developmentally Appropriate: The method used in this curriculum is based on solid principles of child psychology and understands the concrete scaffolding that pre-adolescents need to utilize when managing complex feelings. It provides a structured safe environment in which to practice empathy. Comprehensive No Preparation Resource: This is a complete 48-page curriculum, not a single worksheet, along with a teacher’s guide, visual aids, student workbook, and an answer key, therefore providing the educator and/or counselor an immediate implementation resource with a high level of confidence. Builds Lifelong Skills: This curriculum is a method of solving conflicts today, it also creates the building blocks for rewiring a child’s approach to conflict as they move into adulthood and creating the neurological pathways to become more mature, empathetic, and resilient in relationships as an adult. Target Audience Classes : After conducting a thorough review of their report, the authors (PDF) specifically identified the following groups as targets based on a potential audience needs analysis: Grades: Fourth grade through sixth grade Ages: Approximately 9 to 12 years The authors also have tailored to this developmental stage, as well as their own peer social groupings, such as on playgrounds, in-game chat rooms (Roblox, Minecraft), and with friends via group messenger/chat program. Thus, they provide great information directed towards students in early/middle school and also those working with them professionally (school counselor/social worker).

Help your autistic learners thrive in the classroom and beyond with this complete sensory diet toolkit that will allow you to create a sensory diet for each learner. If you're a parent, educator, or therapist who feels lost when trying to understand the sensory processing issues of young autistic learners and are looking for a way to go beyond reactionary approaches to create an environment that is neuro-affirming, this is the toolkit for you! The 35-page guide was created by professionals who understand the challenges faced by preschool through 1st grade educators and provides clear, easy-to-follow instructions to create, implement and track an effective sensory diet. This is more than just worksheets; it is a complete evidence-based professional development program helping you develop your skills as a sensory detective using evidence-based data. What’s Included in This Evidence-Based Toolkit: Phase 1: Comprehensive Theory & Methodology (10 Pages) : This section offers a thorough guide detailing the neurobiology of sensory overstimulation, the often-overlooked senses such as proprioception, vestibular awareness, and interoception. Additionally, it covers fundamental concepts regarding a sensory diet and features case studies to enhance practical understanding. Phase 2: Student Workbook & Facilitator Tracking Tools (17 Pages) : This part comprises a collection of 11 clinical-grade worksheets intended for educators and parents to monitor, assess, and address sensory needs. These tools include: - Tracker for Sensory Baseline & Arousal State - Guides for Proprioceptive, Vestibular, and Tactile "Brain Breaks" - Early Warning Signs Tracker for Overstimulation - Audit Checklist for Classroom Environmental Triggers - "My Body Feels..." Interoception Check-In with an accompanying visual chart designed for students! - And much more! In this section of the Toolkit there are important visual representations and other teaching materials to provide you with what you need for an effective system of Supports. Phase 3: includes visual representation(s) of the "Escalation & Intervention Cycle" (Examples: Conceptual Diagrams - for use in understanding the steps in the Cycle). - "Brain Break Taxonomy" flowchart - allowing you to tie interventions to specific behaviours in the Escalation Cycle. - Teacher Implementation Guide, with details on how to implement the components of the toolkit as well as a neurodiversity-affirming perspective. - Model Documentation - showing you how to complete trackers for maximum effect. The contents of your Toolkit will help you transition from "Behaviour Management" (i.e. behaviour modification techniques/strategies) to "Neurological Support" (ie supporting learners by providing specific tools & strategies for self-regulation) through concrete examples identifying the root causes of behaviours, preventing crises before they happen and teaching learners through respectful means." Reasons That Parents/Schools Appreciate It: Proactive vs Reactive: Rather than only reacting to incidents of sensory overload or meltdowns, it provides a data-based system for helping to identify causes of the issue and preventing future occurrences through additional data tracking tools. All-in-one vs completing multiple worksheets: This program is designed as a complete curriculum including theory, tracking, intervention and teacher guides. All resources are provided in one location, reducing the burden on the parent and/or educator having to independently find and create all the resources. Creates Consistency in Support throughout Home/School: The program has been designed to provide tools that can be used and shared between home and school, providing a system of support for the child, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Empowering and approves of Neurodiversity: The program promotes the understanding and support of a child’s neurological needs with dignity and respect thereby eliminating the need to use antiquated methods of behavior modification. Immediate Implementation: The program was designed for immediate use in a real-world situation with written and sample instructions included; therefore, it is easy for all educators to implement new strategies into day-to-day teaching. Depending on the content and language used in the PDF, the target audience should be: Grade Level: Pre-K, Kindergarten, and First Grade (in particular, the age range of 4-7 years old). Primary Audience: Special Education Teachers, Occupational Therapists , School Psychologists, Board Certified Behaviour Analysts with a Neurological Understanding of Autism (would find guide useful). Inclusion Classroom General Education Teachers Paraprofessionals, Teacher Aides, Support Staff (including training/employment opportunities) Secondary Audience: Inclusion Classroom Teachers—General Education Knowledgeable and Engaged Parents of Autistic Students who are involved in their child's Sensory Plan and collaborating with the school team.
