Does your student/child frequently struggle with procrastination, missing due dates and managing their time? Does it seem that one instant they are sharp/intelligent and then the next it appears they cannot initiate a simple task? These behaviours are not caused by a lack of desire, defiance, or a personality issue. They are often a product of Time Blindness, a legitimate neurological issue in which the brain has difficulty perceiving time passing, especially for adolescents and students with ADHD, autism and other executive function issues. Time Blindness & Backward Schedule Mapping: A Cognitive Intervention Guide is a complete evidence-based, 40-page curriculum designed to give students the expertise required to dominate their time, alleviate anxiety, and recover their academic self-confidence. This product is more than a planner; it is a system that redefines the student’s perception of time. Through the revolutionary technique of Backward Schedule Mapping (BSM), Time Blindness provides a means of making time a definable, visually perceptible, and manageable resource rather than an abstract and anxiety-producing adversarial force. The resource is a comprehensive toolkit that spans three phases made for school personnel, family members, and people who coach children on improving executive functions. PHASE 1: CORE PARTS AND THEORIES OF INDEPENDENTLY FUNCTIONING FOR YOUR STUDENT OR CHILD. The neuroscience of "time blindness" - why does this happen to adolescents? Explains how adolescent brains are wired, how dopamine impacts the brain, and why regular planning does not work for this age group (or any). The anatomy of backward schedule mapping - explains what backward schedule mapping is and goes through the 4-phase process, including anchor points, sub-task deconstruction, and the "Pessimism Multiplier." How to use backward mapping in real-life examples or case studies (i.e., 7th-grade terrarium project, 9th-grade morning routine, and 10th-grade perfectionist's study schedule). PHASE 2: FILLABLE WORKBOOK FOR THE STUDENT (10 Physical Worksheets to Use with Your Student or Child). Students will go from the theory of backward mapping to the practical application of backward mapping by completing worksheets for each of the following: Time Perception Audit; Calibration of Estimations; Deconstructing Deadlines; Identifying "Time Thieves"; Engineering Buffer Zones; and Backward Mapping for Daily Routines, Extracurricular Activities, and Long-Term Projects. Finally, students will take what was learned in each of the previous worksheets and will develop a plan for contingency planning and how to self-advocate when things do not go as planned in their lives. Section 3: Resources and Change Agents for Teachers Visual Frameworks for Teachers: 3 powerful visuals to utilize as cognitive anchorage for: The Temporal Distortion Cycle, Backward Schedule Mapping Protocol, and Temporal Horizon Discrepancy Comprehensive Answer Key: Detailed answers and pedagogical insights to aid in instruction and locate specific areas of difficulty for a student Teacher Implementation Guide: Step-by-step guide with facilitation scripts, differentiation strategies for students who may feel overloaded and practical tools for success (e.g. Sticky Note Timelines) Define: Who Is This For? - Middle & High School Students (Grades 6-10+) - Students With ADHD, Autism, and/or Executive Function Challenges - Chronic Procrastinators & Perfectionists - Special Education Teachers, School Counselors, and Psychologists - Coaches, Tutors, and Parents Who Homeschool Their Own Child, and any Parent Who Wants to Empower Their Child With Lifelong Skills End the cycle of late-night panic and academic shame - Transform Your Students From Passive Spectators to Active Creators of Their Own Success by Downloading This Entire Product and Building a New Way to Achieve Successful Outcomes Today! Search Terms: Executive Functioning Skills, Time Management Resources for Teens, ADHD Strategies, Study Skills, Backward Planning, Procrastination, Middle School, High School, Special Education, Neurodivergent, Student Workbooks, Teacher Guides, Social-Emotional Learning (SEL), Time Blindness. What Makes Parents & Schools Like It: Promotes Empathy - Decreases Conflict: "Laziness" is redefined by the lens of brain-based neuroscience (due to "Time Blindness") which provides educators and parents a fresh and compassionate perspective while alleviating the amount of friction they may have with students. Practical Application - Concrete Tools - This is not a theoretical-based item, but rather provides students with a step-by-step and hands-on plan they could implement immediately using the 10 worksheets included in the student workbook, for both academic and personal tasks. Authentic Independence - Rather than managing schedules, the curriculum will teach students how to use metacognitive skills to manage their own time - a critical life skill necessary for high school, college and adulthood! Cognitive Science Based - Through the use of brain-based neuroscience and psychology concepts (i.e., temporal discounting, planning fallacy), the curriculum has an established track record and the strategies provided are designed to work as how your adolescent brain functions. Simple to Implement - With a complete answer key, visual supports, and a comprehensive Teacher Implementation Guide (including differentiation strategies/implementation scripts), educators will have the tools they need to successfully implement the curriculum with confidence and effectiveness. Audience Target Analysis: From my short description above on the Audience of this document, as well as from the content itself, your primary target audience is as follows: Students in Grade 6 through Grade 10.

Guided Reading Level H - Clean Hands, Healthy Bodies

This Guided Reading Book - Clean Hands, Healthy Bodies (Level H) includes: Guided Reading Color Label (front cover x1) This is a quick way to match the book’s demands to what students can generally handle.. The overall goal is to use the level/color to pick books for several smaller groups. To qualify for a certain level, a student is expected to read a book from that level with about 90–94% accuracy. If a student is consistently accurate and understands, move up a level. If the student is struggling at that level, drop down and add more support. Each student will improve at completely different rates, but it is generally one of the best ways to check progress across the class. DOWNLOAD THE CATALOG TO VIEW ALL GUIDED READING BOOKS AVAILABLE (SORTED LEVELS A-Z) Pre-Reading Question (x1) Teacher asks the prompt aloud, can be while showing the cover or first page. Students share what they already know, or make educated guesses from the cover. Prompt them to use the target vocabulary. Write some of their responses on the board to look back at during the reading. Vocabulary Words (x5) Introduce the five words, best doing it one at a time. Start by saying it, while students repeat and then see if anyone knows what it means before reading further. Read through the meaning and try to briefly connect each word to a picture or gesture so it’s meaningful. Ask students to flip through the book pages and point to where they see each of the vocabulary words. While reading the book pause upon coming across one of the vocab words or read the sentence twice to make sure students understand the word has appeared. Optional: Ask students to raise hands whenever they see/hear one of the new words. Guided Reading Pages (x10) Check the book snapshot (below) for: primary topic - do you need to prep extra reading or intro materials on this? what is taught best - decide on 1-2 bullets to focus on, use the prompt or words provided here for best results. learning goals - what you are checking for students to be able to do after the session, elicit answers using prompts or words provided. key vocabulary (see section above). questions overview - so you know what is coming up and if you need to prep extra materials to assist understanding. Run the lesson You may have already looked at a few of the pages together, but you can show them some of the pictures again first to set meaning. Depending on how much time you have and how familiar your students are with guided reading class, you may want to read the book aloud first with the group first. Students whisper or partner read, while you listen in. If time, do it as a group, one student reading a page each. Use the guided page’s prompts to coach: “Check the picture / does it make sense?” “Point under the words / try the first sound” “Reread the sentence smoothly”. Try to focus more on one student per session (rotating every time), so you can work out if they are ready to move up or need to move down a level. Comprehension Questions (back cover x3) This is your way to check that students didn’t just say the words, but actually understood the text. First, let students answer by pointing to the page/picture and saying a short sentence. After any answer, follow with: “Show me where you found that in the text.” In bigger groups, have partners answer first (10–20 seconds), then call on 2–3 students to share. Differentiation tips: Emerging speakers/struggling readers: oral + pointing On-level: oral in a full sentence Higher: one written sentence or draw + label Book Snapshot Title: Clean Hands, Healthy Bodies Genre: Nonfiction (informational) Subject: Health & Safety / Science Primary Topic: When and how to wash hands to stop germs Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): H What This Book Teaches Best Why washing hands matters: it “keeps germs away” and helps prevent germs from spreading to other people. When to wash hands (before eating, after outdoor play, after using the toilet, after playing with a pet). How to wash hands step-by-step (wet with clean running water, use soap, scrub all areas, rinse, dry). A key procedure detail: scrubbing should last “twenty seconds” to remove germs. The idea of healthy habits: making handwashing a regular habit “protects everyone.” Learning Goals Students will explain one reason the book gives for washing hands, using a detail from the text. Students will identify at least two times the book says hands should be washed. Students will describe the steps for washing hands in order, based on the text. Students will state how long scrubbing should last, according to the book. Students will describe how handwashing helps other people, using the book’s words about spreading germs/protecting everyone. Key Vocabulary From the Text germs — tiny living things that can make you sick. contact — touching something. invisible — cannot be seen. scrub — rub hard to get something clean. protects — keeps safe from harm. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: When do you think it is most important to wash your hands? Comprehension questions: Name one time the book says you should wash your hands. How long should scrubbing last when you wash your hands? Why does washing your hands help other people? Printing Tips 1. Best Printing Method (Recommended) “Booklet” Printing (Best if Available) If your printer or PDF viewer supports Booklet Printing , use this. Settings to use: Print mode: Booklet Paper size: Letter or A4 (either works) Orientation: Landscape Print on both sides: Yes Flip on: Short edge Scaling: Fit to printable area Booklet subset: First test: Front sides only Then: Back sides only This will automatically: Pair pages correctly Put the cover on the outside Align everything for folding After printing, fold in half and staple along the spine . 2. If “Booklet” Printing Is NOT Available You can still print this correctly with manual duplex printing . Step-by-step: Open the PDF. Choose Print . Set: Orientation: Landscape Pages per sheet: 1 Print on both sides: Yes Flip on: Short edge Print all pages . Because each PDF page already contains two facing book pages, the result will still fold cleanly into a book. Thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership.

Therapy Dog - Helping Students Reflect with Therapy Dogs 🐶💭

Helping Students Reflect with Therapy Dogs 🐶💭 There’s something special about the presence of a therapy dog in the classroom. Even the most restless students seem to relax. Some kids who rarely speak up suddenly open up. And for many, it’s the first time they’ve had a chance to experience the unconditional support that a dog offers. But what if we took that experience and turned it into a learning moment? That’s exactly what this reflection activity does. It helps students think about what kindness means, why responsibility matters, and how their actions affect others—whether those others have two legs or four. Why This Activity Feels Different ✔ It gets students thinking, not just answering. It’s not about memorizing facts. It’s about pausing for a moment and reflecting on simple but meaningful questions. ✔ It connects emotions with actions. Why do therapy dogs have rules? Why does kindness matter? These questions lead to unexpectedly deep discussions. ✔ It’s easy for any grade level. Younger kids can draw their answers, while older students might write or discuss. No one feels left out. ✔ It works with or without a therapy dog. Even if your school doesn’t have one, this still sparks conversations about empathy and responsibility. ✔ No prep required. Just print it out, hand it to students, and let them think. How I Use It in My Classroom 📌 First, we talk. I ask, “How do animals teach us about kindness?” or “What do therapy dogs need from us?” The answers are never what I expect—and that’s the best part. 📌 Then, students reflect. They complete a few simple but thoughtful prompts about their own behavior, their emotions, and what they’ve learned. 📌 Next, we share (if they want to). I never make sharing mandatory. But I’m always surprised by how many students want to. 📌 Finally, we put up the poster. It’s a small reminder that kindness and responsibility go beyond the classroom. 🐶 One more idea: If you have a therapy dog visit your class, have students read their reflections to the dog. You’d be amazed at how much more open and engaged they become! What Other Teachers Have Said ✔ “I used this before our first therapy dog visit, and it made a huge difference in how students behaved around the dog.” ✔ “It’s simple but powerful. The class discussions that came from this were amazing.” ✔ “Perfect for social-emotional learning, even without a therapy dog!” Why This Activity Sticks with Students At the end of the day, this isn’t just another worksheet. It’s a way to help students slow down, think about their actions, and reflect on what really matters—whether that’s how they interact with a therapy dog, a classmate, or the world around them. 📥 Give it a try—you might be surprised by what your students come up with. 🐶✨ 📍 Warmly, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and inspiring learning environment. 🐶✨

The Emotional Regulation & Self-Care Planner for Teens (39 pages), which is available digitally as a curriculum and a planner, is laid out in three phases. The first phase (core content & theory) consists of four chapters dealing with the neurobiology of adolescent emotions, the cognitive restructuring process as well as working with the inner critic; somatic regulation (resilience of the nervous system); strategic self-care (boundary architecture). Also included are real-life case studies of teenagers (amygdala hijack, perfectionism spiral, freeze response/burnout cycle); The second phase consists of a student workbook that includes ten interactive worksheets (re: affective granularity/metacognition cognitive distortion; interoceptive/somatic map; navigating the Window of Tolerance boundary architecture; digital ecosystem audit; executive function/anticipatory anxiety; and interpersonal rupture & repair); The third phase consists of visuals & teacher resources (classroom visuals, answer keys, assessment rubrics, teacher implementation guide). The three visuals contain high-fidelity representations of the Window of Tolerance diagram; cognitive-behavioral triad; multidimensional self-care matrix). The teacher resources contain answer keys for each module and rubrics for use in assessing student work. The resource addresses self-care from three frameworks, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and polyvagal theory and defines self-care as "radical stewardship of oneself". It provides teenagers with practical tools for emotional regulation, managing stress, setting digital boundaries, and developing resilience. The resource was designed to be print-ready and tested in classrooms, and includes fillable blank forms and reflection items. What Parents/Schools Appreciate: Based on research and ready to use in class – Integrating CBT, DBT and Polyvagal Theory, the program includes worksheets for students as well as the teacher's key that connects with social emotional learning (SEL) standards, thereby saving weeks of lesson planning. Directly targeted to teens and highly engaging – The material is presented via case studies from students, real-world issues they face with the digital age and through visual diagrams that connect to these emotional learning experiences for grades 9-12. Trauma-informed and provides safety – The material provides the students with options, breaks the stigma on emotional learning and clearly explains the reporting protocols for educators, making it a resource they can use for success in diverse classrooms. Comprehensive and multi-functional – It can be used for whole class lesson plans, small group counseling, advisory periods or as a self-help resource for individual students, one product meets several needs. Immediate learning and long term benefit – Students develop ongoing skills in emotional granularity, boundary setting, and regulating their nervous system while parents and schools experience decreased levels of anxiety and increased levels of focus. Intended Students: Students in Grades 9-12 only. All the examples, case studies, language, and content are created specifically for high school students (ages 14-18) who are dealing with academic pressures, social media, peer group dynamics, forming their identity, and normal neurodevelopmental changes in the developing teenage brain. This material is inappropriate for middle school students (too mature) or college students (too teen-focused).
