Chemistry Binder Covers – Templates for Classroom Use Organize your chemistry handouts, notes, and units with visual clarity Simple and flexible templates to help organize your chemistry materials In my chemistry classes, it can be a challenge to keep things organized - especially when it comes to multiple units, lab notes, worksheets and review materials. To make it easier for my students and myself, I designed these simple binder sleeves. There are 12 different pages. The covers have a clean, colorful blob layout that is friendly but not distracting. I usually print them out and use them as cover sheets or as dividers in folders for students or teachers. They also work well for digital learning environments, e.g. as section covers in PDF files or on classroom platforms. I like that the color scheme allows students to quickly find what they are looking for, and it brings a little more structure to a subject that is often riddled with formulas and technical terms. When used as cover sheets, students can choose their favorite color for their cover sheet. This resource is handy - and has saved me a lot of time in lesson preparation and follow-up. What’s included: 12 chemistry-themed cover pages different colors zu choose as a cover sheet as a divider between the individual chemistry topics I've printed these on colored paper for my own binder and also used them digitally in student notebooks. Works well for both teacher organization and student-facing materials. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Chemistry teacher (Biology teacher, Math teacher) in Germany Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and inspiring learning environment. 🐶✨

Lesson Snapshot Title: Atlantis Genre: Nonfiction (informational passage about a myth/story’s origins and meaning) Subject: Reading (Informational Text) / Social Studies (Myths & ancient world references) Primary Topic: Atlantis in writing, details, and “lesson” meaning Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): T What This Lesson Teaches Best Identifying where an idea “first appears in writings” and tracking its source (the passage names Plato and two dialogues). Visualizing and describing setting details from informational text (rings of water, bridges, gates, canals, temples, palace). Cause/effect in a legend: how pride and disrespect lead to destruction (earthquakes, floods, island vanishes; travel becomes hard). Distinguishing story-meaning vs scientific proof: stories can warn; science looks for “rocks, ruins, and dates.” Understanding how a name becomes a symbol for “anything lost and longed for” and why mysteries keep people thinking. Learning Goals Students will identify where the Atlantis story first appears and name the two dialogues the passage lists. Students will describe Atlantis’s “circles of water” using details from the passage (moats, bridges, gates, canals). Students will explain what events cause the island to vanish and how the water changes afterward. Students will summarize why people keep hunting for a real location and what “most scholars” think instead. Students will compare what the passage says stories do versus what science asks for. Students will explain how the passage describes Atlantis as a “shortcut” for things that are lost. Key Vocabulary From the Text dialogues — written conversations between speakers. moats — water ditches around a place. canals — water paths that boats can travel on. clogged — blocked so movement becomes difficult. scholars — people who study a topic deeply.

Dog Breeds Coloring Domino – Fun and Educational Game

Dog Breeds Domino – A Calm Coloring & Matching Game for Elementary Students This printable domino game is a quiet and creative way for students to explore different dog breeds while practicing matching skills and early reading. The cards are all black and white, so students can color them themselves – something my third graders always look forward to. It gives them a sense of ownership over the material and creates a nice break from more structured tasks. The idea is simple: each domino shows either a dog breed name or a drawing, and students have to find the correct pairs. The illustrations are clear and recognizable, even without color, so they work well for younger learners or students still developing their vocabulary. The breed names are printed in an easy-to-read font, which helps build confidence in early readers. I’ve used this activity in a few different contexts: – as a quiet task for early finishers – in small group centers – during indoor recess on rainy days – or as part of a broader unit on animals and pets It also opens up room for short, low-pressure conversations – for example, “Which one do you think is the fastest?” or “Would you want a dog like that at home?” If you work with a therapy or school dog, like I do, it’s a great way to bring that connection into the classroom without needing a full lesson plan. The file includes 20 domino cards that you can print and cut out. I recommend using heavier paper or laminating the cards if you plan to reuse them. Depending on the group, you can let students color all the cards first or wait until they’ve completed a match. This is one of those activities that feels more like a calm puzzle than a “game” – which is exactly what some students need in a busy school day. 💛 Warmest wishes, Heike from Lernfitness & Happy Joe 🐶✨ Did You Know? I teach with my certified therapy dog Happy Joe, and together we focus on creating a positive and inspiring learning environment.

EA Phonic Worksheets for Early Years/Intervention/Special Needs
Special Resources, ELA, Language Development, Phonics, Reading, Spelling, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, Activities, Games, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
This is a pack of 30 phonic worksheets for the Long Vowel EA (as in eat) specially designed for those with special needs, including those with dyslexia or who may be suspected of being dyslexic but will work equally well with young learners in Kindergarten/EYFS/Y1. A pack of 30 worksheets with a variety of exercises to help build phonemic awareness and reading fluency. These sheets are LETRS and UK GOV requirements aligned. These worksheets also align with the most popular phonic programmes, including RWI and Letters and Sounds. What is included? 30 worksheets for the sound EA taking pupils from hearing the sounds in words to reading and spelling them at word and sentence level. all following my special method devised as I privately tutor children of all ages with profound special needs. Your phonics lessons covered! Tracking, fluency triangles, spelling, reading, games, comprehension exercises....and more! 2 PDF games to send home for extra practice included! Who are these worksheets for? I have written them for pupils who struggle with processing information - especially sounds. This includes children who are DYSLEXIC or have ANY other kind of processing disorder. Such children may have failed with other methods of teaching phonics. Such pupils need activities that: ·are highly structured - one tiny step at a time building on the one before using only a limited number of words to start with and only using words that the child has already learnt to sound out, with no nasty surprises. ·Have only a little on each pageas these pupils tire easily. What makes these worksheets special? I have a powerful three-step process which I use with my special needs pupils, which is worked out over the course of the 30 worksheets: 1. See it!where we focus on becoming aware of the new sound in words. This involves first hearing the new sound in words and then seeing it in words (tracking). 2. Sound-it-out!Having learnt to see the new sound in words, we learn to sound out these words to read and write them. We begin by usingsound-it-out boxesfor reading and spelling which help the child to segment the word prior to blending the sounds together. Once the child can read and write individual words, we work on fluency by building familiarity with the common words in the new sound family. Once the child can sound the words out to read and spell confidently, we move on to recognising them/using them in longer reading and dictation passages, as soon as the child is able. I provide 2 reading passages with comprehension exercises and one dictation passage, with a page in the workbook dedicated to it, with room for a picture, which again cements understanding. 3. Write it! Incorporated into the above two steps, we constantly write the new sound. This adds a multi-sensory dimension to our work - we see with our eyes, we sound it with our mouth parts and voice, and then we move by writing. All three steps work together to help the child feel in control of his/her learning and to become a successful, confident learner. We finish each sound with a dictation which culminates our work before we move on to the next sound. I try to give the dictation a week after we finish the work on the EA sound to act as revision. The dictation: Read this passage to your pupil, who should write it. Have the child read his/her work and check for errors. Make sure the writing is completely accurate before saying the child has finished, including full stops and capital letters correctly used. Flashcards are included of some common EA words. What is included? 1 PDF with flashcards, 2 easy-prep games and 30 worksheets

Dinosaur Measuring Printable Activity | Watercolour Dinosaurs to Scale
, Not Grade Specific, Worksheets, Worksheets & Printables
Beautifully illustrated watercolor learning activity for young children. The dinosaurs are drawn to scale with 1cm equaling 1 meter, with an added scale bar to ensure accuracy as there may be slight variations in the final size depending on the settings of your printer. Can be used as a learning activity or starting point to investigate dinosaurs, or as a maths activity for measuring or comparing sizes. Set includes 12 dinosaurs from the giant brachiosaurus and diplodocus to the tiny archaeopteryx. This pack is an ideal small activity for a nature table, quiet time, or morning basket. It can be printed onto magnetic paper to be used on a fridge or whiteboard. To create a lasting and tactile item I highly recommend printing the file onto watercolor paper, it creates a beautiful finish and really looks like you are handling original paintings. Alternatively, you can laminate the pieces for durability, or perhaps print out a version for children to use to cut and stick their own food chains into a nature journal.

This quesadillas reading comprehension includes: Visualization (on the front cover) Start your lesson by taking a minute to think and share something about the topic. Read the script aloud (slowly), perhaps prepare some music or sound effects. Student close their eyes and let their imaginations wander. Students open their eyes, read the question aloud and give them a few minutes to complete. Ask a few students to share or keep answers until the end to compare with what they learn in the passage. Quick pause—thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership. Download links and encyclopedia index available here. Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. Give 1 minute for students to write what they already know (no pressure—best guess is fine). Read the five facts together. After each fact, do ask a student for their opinion, was it surprising? Set a purpose by asking students to highlight/underline one fact they want to learn more about during the reading. Reading Passage The text is a high-interest reading passage with set paragraphs, roughly three to four paragraphs long. It contains a variety of themes about the topic, anywhere from history to technology. The passage is between 250 and 350 words in length. First, ask students to look at the headings and see what they’ll learn about today. What do they know about the topic/heading? First read options: Teacher read-aloud (best for support). Partner reading (paragraph by paragraph). While reading, students underline important details, and vocabulary words they think may come up in the questions section. Mixed Questions The first question page contains four multiple-choice questions, each with a choice of four answers, and three written response questions that require a sentence or two from the student. Students complete the mcqs first independently, then review quickly as a class. For the 3 written responses, try to get students giving the answer with some form of evidence: “I think ___ because the text says ___.” If students get stuck, send them back to check the passage. Vocabulary Questions Practice seven key words from the text in this section across two activities. First section is scrambled words where students will unscramble three words given a clue for each. The second section is a word to meaning matching activity. Before starting, have some students read out words they underlined in the passage. Ask students to say the word and read aloud the sentence(s) around each word. Ask students to do scrambled words and the matching exercise in pairs then go through answers as a class. For the scrambled spelling task, get four pairs to come up to the board and write the words for extra practice with the other student reading out the clue. For the matching task, prompt students to give full sentences: “I matched ___ with ___ because ___.” Creative Writing In this question, the student will be required to write a five to eight sentence paragraph on a question related to the topic. Before starting, ask students write down 3 key ideas they are going to include in their piece. Ask students for ideas to share around the class to help those struggling. Pro writing expectations: 5–8 sentences At least 2 facts or details from the passage At least 2 vocabulary words from the previous page Students read their paragraphs while classmates listen for facts and vocabulary words. Extension Activities This page is optional for fast finishers or to take home. There are several activities, each one requiring a different skill. Do some, do none, do all, completely optional - but you will feel reassured knowing every possibility is planned for. Includes summary writting question. Answer Key There are answers for the multiple-choice questions, written response questions have sample answers, vocabulary answers and if there is a summary question then a sample summary will be provided as well.

The Adaptive Executive Functioning Mastery: A K-Adult Scaffolding Framework contains everything needed for educators to implement effective executive functioning (working memory, inhibitory control, cognitive flexibility, task initiation, time blindness, metacognition, etc.) in all levels of education from kindergarten through adult. The workbook comprises: • In-depth theory chapters on cognitive load, dynamic scaffolding, and the function of the prefrontal cortex. • 10 fillable student worksheets with real life case studies. • Teacher/facilitator implementation guide with teacher supports such as fading protocols. • Printable visuals (Neuro-Developmental Continuum; Adaptive Scaffolding Matrix; Emotional Regulation Loop). • Answer Key for assessments. An essential part of this workbook is that it will help to reduce environmental friction and support the autonomous development of exobrains that fade into an internal mastery. It is suitable for use in special education, general education, homeschooling, college support programs, and/or in the coaching of adults. This digital download is immediately available via PDF format as well as in a format that may be accessed using Notion. No preparation required. Why Parents and Schools Are Fans : Evidence-based but usable immediately: Break down the latest neuroscience (prefrontal cortex, cognitive load theory, Vygotsky ZPD) into zero-prep, easy-to-use worksheets and visuals for teachers to use on Monday. Neuro-affirmative and compassionate: Replace "laziness" and "try harder" with practical scaffolding that respects how the brain is wired so that the number of meltdowns, anxiety, and learned helplessness decreases. Built-in fading and autonomy: The Bridge-and-Fade Protocol has 4 phases with clearly defined transitional points will reduce dependence on the scaffolding of adults for each student to develop independence and report the skill as internalized. Saves time in planning: Diagnostic answer keys, visual resources, and Notion/PDF hybrid options will save teachers hours of planning for busy IEPs, 504s, and RTI meetings. Versatile across the lifespan: One purchase will allow the entire school to utilize the tools (PreK-12 and adult transitions) or a family will be able to use the tools with their child from kindergarten through college and into their career. Target Audiences and Student Classifications : This Framework has been purposely created for life cycle growth from beginning of time with K-Adult. This Framework identifies all target audiences as follows: Early Childhood/Primary (ages 4-9): Pre-K-3 Special ed., and needs-based learning support.

This Iguanas reading comprehension with lesson plan includes: Visualization (on the front cover) Start your lesson by taking a minute to think and share something about the topic. Read the script aloud (slowly), perhaps prepare some music or sound effects. Student close their eyes and let their imaginations wander. Students open their eyes, read the question aloud and give them a few minutes to complete. Ask a few students to share or keep answers until the end to compare with what they learn in the passage. Quick pause—thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership. Download links and encyclopedia index available here. Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. Give 1 minute for students to write what they already know (no pressure—best guess is fine). Read the five facts together. After each fact, do ask a student for their opinion, was it surprising? Set a purpose by asking students to highlight/underline one fact they want to learn more about during the reading. Reading Passage The text is a high-interest reading passage with set paragraphs, roughly three to four paragraphs long. It contains a variety of themes about the topic, anywhere from history to technology. The passage is between 250 and 350 words in length. First, ask students to look at the headings and see what they’ll learn about today. What do they know about the topic/heading? First read options: Teacher read-aloud (best for support). Partner reading (paragraph by paragraph). While reading, students underline important details, and vocabulary words they think may come up in the questions section. Mixed Questions The first question page contains four multiple-choice questions, each with a choice of four answers, and three written response questions that require a sentence or two from the student. Students complete the mcqs first independently, then review quickly as a class. For the 3 written responses, try to get students giving the answer with some form of evidence: “I think ___ because the text says ___.” If students get stuck, send them back to check the passage. Vocabulary Questions Practice seven key words from the text in this section across two activities. First section is scrambled words where students will unscramble three words given a clue for each. The second section is a word to meaning matching activity. Before starting, have some students read out words they underlined in the passage. Ask students to say the word and read aloud the sentence(s) around each word. Ask students to do scrambled words and the matching exercise in pairs then go through answers as a class. For the scrambled spelling task, get four pairs to come up to the board and write the words for extra practice with the other student reading out the clue. For the matching task, prompt students to give full sentences: “I matched ___ with ___ because ___.” Creative Writing In this question, the student will be required to write a five to eight sentence paragraph on a question related to the topic. Before starting, ask students write down 3 key ideas they are going to include in their piece. Ask students for ideas to share around the class to help those struggling. Pro writing expectations: 5–8 sentences At least 2 facts or details from the passage At least 2 vocabulary words from the previous page Students read their paragraphs while classmates listen for facts and vocabulary words. Extension Activities This page is optional for fast finishers or to take home. There are several activities, each one requiring a different skill. Do some, do none, do all, completely optional - but you will feel reassured knowing every possibility is planned for. Includes summary writting question and additional facts. Answer Key There are answers for the multiple-choice questions, written response questions have sample answers, vocabulary answers and if there is a summary question then a sample summary will be provided as well. Lesson Plan Included Customized lesson plan for this lesson is included. Lesson Snapshot Title: Iguanas Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Reading (Informational Text) / Life Science Primary Topic: Green vs. marine iguanas: tails, habitat, survival Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): R What This Lesson Teaches Best Describes key iguana features and what they look like (dewlap, a line of spines). Explains where iguanas live and notes that most live in the Americas, with some relatives on islands. Shows how a green iguana’s long tail helps with survival (whip-like defense and strong tail strokes for swimming away). Compares two related iguanas by habitat and behavior (tree-climbing green iguana vs. sea-foraging marine iguana that eats algae and basks on dark rocks). Builds awareness of changing habitats and reasons protection matters (building on land, hunting/capturing, predators, El Niño, oil spills). Learning Goals Identify details that describe what an iguana looks like and where it lives. Explain how a green iguana uses its tail when danger comes near water. Describe how the marine iguana finds food and what it does after a cold swim. Compare the green iguana and marine iguana using evidence from the passage. Describe at least two reasons iguanas might need protection based on changes in their habitats. Key Vocabulary From the Text dewlap — loose throat skin that can hang in a fold. spines — pointed bumps that may rise along its back. forages — searches for food. predators — animals that hunt other animals. habitats — places animals need to live.

Robert Boyle – Exploring the Foundations of Modern Chemistry A short reading and activity set for grades 7–10 (PDF + H5P) ⚗️📘 A printable and digital resource This material introduces students to Robert Boyle, a 17th-century scientist often considered one of the founders of modern chemistry. His work on gases and scientific experimentation is still relevant today, especially when students first encounter Boyle’s Law or the basics of pressure and volume. The text and tasks are structured in a way that makes them easy to use in a regular lesson or even in a non-specialist substitute setting. Students work independently or in pairs to read, reflect, and test their understanding. Included in this resource: Informational text on Robert Boyle and his contributions Profile worksheet to guide understanding Quiz questions with solutions Two optional follow-up tasks: – Students write their own questions about the text – Partner activity: exchange and answer peer questions Formats: – Printable PDF – Editable DOCX (text only) – H5P version for interactive, digital use Classroom use: I’ve used materials like this to complement lessons on gas laws or to introduce a historical perspective on chemistry. It works well as part of a science unit, a literacy-focused lesson, or even during quiet working phases. Students read the short info text, fill out a profile sheet, and complete the quiz. The additional tasks are great for early finishers or small group work. The H5P version is useful for digital platforms and allows students to check their answers independently. No special preparation is needed – just print or upload and the activity is ready to go. Have fun exploring the world of science with your students! Warmly, Lernfitness Did You Know?
