Unwind Your Mind SEL Activity Mats

Unwind Your Mind SEL Activity Mats
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Social Skills, Grade 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, Activities

In this product, you will receive 10 unique Unwind Your Mind SEL activity mats. These are wonderful for SEL follow-up activities, morning work, brain breaks, school counseling handouts, etc. There are 4 seasonal activity mats; fall, winter, spring, and summer. There are 2 partner-focused mats so students can connect, build friendships, and create a safe classroom community. There are 4 mats for any day of the year! Students from upper elementary through middle school will enjoy these mats. (Even adults and high schoolers would like to do some of these!) On the mats, there is mindfulness coloring/zentangle coloring, mazes, word search, reflections, SEL prompts, and more. For example on one of the mats, there is a mindfulness coloring of an anchor with the prompt to encourage students to think about what grounds them as they color. There is also a squiggle and students are encouraged to create their own unique design from it. There is also a heart maze, a triangle breath image, and an image of a turtle to encourage students to think of what brings them strength. On another mat, there is a line of different emojis and they are asked to circle how they feel in that moment. There is also a mindfulness coloring of a hot air balloon and the prompt is for them to imagine all of their worries are in the basket and as they color, they are asked to think of their worries floating away. On that same mat, there is a rainbow breath exercise and an image of a brick wall with the prompt for students to write in the bricks what gives them a solid foundation; their values, strengths, and purposes in life. Each mat is unique but offers opportunities for students to take a moment to relax, get their minds off their daily stress, and have fun. It is best to print these on legal-size paper so images and text are a good size with plenty of room for students to write and draw.

Guided Reading Level N - The Hidden Life of Ponds (with Lesson Plan)

Guided Reading Level N - The Hidden Life of Ponds (with Lesson Plan)
ELA, Resources for Teachers, Reading Comprehension, Reading, Science, Pre-Reading, Language Development, Animals, Life Sciences, Insects, Grade 2, 3, 4, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Teacher Tools, Centers, Activities, Literacy Readers, Quizzes, Quizzes and Tests, Assessments

This Guided Reading Book - The Hidden Life of Ponds (Level N) with lesson plan 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: The Hidden Life of Ponds Genre: Nonfiction (informational) Subject: Life Science / Reading (Informational Text) Primary Topic: Pond ecosystem life and food web Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): N What This Book Teaches Best Ponds as a habitat: Ponds are shallow enough for sunlight to reach the muddy floor, supporting life from bottom to surface. Plants’ role in an ecosystem: Water lilies collect energy from the sun, provide oxygen, and create shade and hiding spots. Hidden pond organisms and how they live: Zooplankton (like daphnia) filter algae, and dragonfly nymphs hunt underwater before becoming flying adults. Adaptations for living on/in water: Water striders use surface tension and tiny hairs that trap air to stay afloat. Food web balance: Predators (bullfrogs, herons, bass) and scavengers (crayfish) help keep the pond ecosystem healthy and vibrant through a connected food web. Learning Goals Students will describe why ponds can support plants across the entire floor using details from the text. Students will explain how water lilies help living things in a pond (oxygen, shade, hiding spots). Students will identify several pond animals from the book and describe what each one eats or how it hunts. Students will explain how water striders stay on top of the water according to the text. Students will describe how crayfish help recycle nutrients in the pond environment. Students will explain how a pond food web helps keep the ecosystem healthy and vibrant. Key Vocabulary From the Text ecosystem — living things and their environment working together. microscopic — so tiny you can’t see it. translucent — lets some light through; partly see-through. scavengers — animals that eat dead plants or animals. nutrients — substances living things need to grow and stay healthy. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: What living things might depend on a pond to survive? Comprehension questions: Why does the book say plants can grow across the entire floor of a pond? How do water striders stay on top of the water instead of sinking? What does the book say keeps the pond ecosystem healthy and vibrant? 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.

Lesson Plan on Plant Life Cycle for Kindergarten
Biology, Life Sciences, Science, Nature & Plants, Kindergarten, Grade 1, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools, Worksheets & Printables, Activities

With a playful, participatory approach, this captivating Kindergarten lesson plan teaches young students about the plant life cycle. The 90-minute lesson, which is based around the instructive movie "Plant Life Cycle," walks students through the four main phases of plant growth: seed, sprout, seedling, and flower. Children will investigate how plants grow and what they require—sunlight, water, soil, and air—through a combination of pictures, storytelling, hands-on activities, and movement. A dynamic group conversation, a video watching with narrated explanations, and a straightforward tale reenactment to aid understanding are all included in the session. After that, students will finish a vibrant worksheet that includes matching, coloring, sequencing, and drawing exercises. The idea of development and renewal is reinforced through a unique craft project that uses paper plates to help kids picture the plant life cycle in a circular fashion. By the end of the lesson, children will be able to identify and describe each stage in the plant life cycle. The included worksheet and answer key support independent learning and review. This lesson promotes curiosity, fine motor skills, and a love of nature in young learners.
