Early Sorting/Grouping activity - Identical and Non-identical items
Special Resources, ELA, Special Education Needs (SEN), Speech Therapy, Math, Early Math, Strategies, Language Development, Vocabulary, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, Activities
Why we teach errorless learning Errorless learning is a teaching technique that involves minimizing errors during the learning process by providing learners with prompts or cues to help them avoid making mistakes. This approach is particularly effective with young early learning students because it can help build their confidence and prevent frustration, which can be major barriers to learning. Here are some reasons why it is important for educators to teach errorless learning to young early learning students: Promotes success: Young early learning students who experience success in their learning are more likely to enjoy the process of learning and be motivated to continue. By minimizing errors and providing cues, educators can help students achieve success and build their confidence. Reduces frustration: When young early learning students make mistakes, they can become frustrated and lose interest in learning. By minimizing errors and providing cues, educators can reduce frustration and keep students engaged and motivated. Increases independence: Errorless learning can help young early learning students become more independent learners by allowing them to practice skills without the fear of making mistakes. As they become more confident and proficient in their learning, they can gradually reduce their reliance on prompts and cues. Builds a strong foundation: Early learning is critical for building a strong foundation for future learning. By teaching errorless learning, educators can help students develop a strong foundation of skills and knowledge that they can build on as they progress through their academic careers. Sorting/Grouping non-identical objects - ERRORLESS ACTIVITY This activity is a great starter activity for the learner who is being introduced to the concept of grouping/sorting. This 22 page activity is two activities in one. The first one is errorless, where the learner can be independently successful completing an activity . It teaches identical matching and the initial concept of group sorting- taking an identical item from a group of identical items and moving it to match an identical item. There is a second bonus activity of non-identical cards to teach grouping of non-identical items. The pictures are large and clear. Great for those with vision issues or even visual attention issues.

This is based on the wildly popular game Smart A** but more applicable and relevant to elementary-high schoolers. I have included many references to popular t.v. shows and famous people the students born after 2001 would know. This is a trivial pursuit-like game but more fun and students feel more successful. It is just for fun and perfect for Zoom, an ice breaker or indoor recess but they might even learn something! There are 3 categories; Who Am I?, Where Am I?, and What Am I? There are 42 slides for each category. Use in Presentation mode for your class. There are answer sheets at the end for each card so the Game Leader can reference quickly and keep track of the cards used. This is in PowerPoint so the completed cards will turn black after being used for easy game play. In this new 2022 version there are all new cards for each category!

Microscopes - Science Reading Article - Grade 5-7
Science, Basic Science, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Activities
Microscopes. This resource is suitable for students in grades 5-7. Here are the first few paragraphs to give you an idea of the product. Microscopes History of the Microscope Microscopes let us see tiny things by making them look bigger. People have been using microscopes for hundreds of years. The first microscopes were invented in the late 1500s. They were simple magnifying glasses. Magnifying glasses made things look a little bigger. They let people see small objects like insects up close for the first time. In 1590, two eyeglass makers named Hans and Zacharias built the first compound microscope. Compound microscopes use more than one lens. More lenses mean you can see things that are much smaller. Hans and Zacharias' microscope let them study tiny things like bugs, fabric, and plant and animal cells. But early microscopes blurred the images. Over many years, scientists improved how microscopes worked. In 1665, a scientist named Robert Hooke first used the word "cell." He saw tiny cell structures in cork using a simple microscope. Later, Antonie van Leeuwenhoek built a microscope with just one lens. This let him see microorganisms for the first time. In the 1800s, engineers developed better lenses. These new achromatic lenses made the images in microscopes much clearer. They also let them magnify more. This let scientists see smaller things. In the late 1800s, two German engineers named Carl Zeiss and Ernst Abbe made huge advances in microscopes. Their microscopes could see cells in much greater detail.

Sorting Activity: Animals - Non-identicals
Special Resources, Special Education Needs (SEN), Math, Early Math, Science, Basic Science, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, Activities
This downloadable PDF is an educational activity that involves sorting non-identical animals. Why we teach sorting and grouping - Sorting and grouping are important skills for young children to learn because they lay the foundation for many other important academic and life skills. Sorting and grouping involve categorizing objects based on common attributes such as color, shape, size, and function. These skills help children to understand and make sense of the world around them. This activity begins by presenting the learner with two large cards, one depicting a dog and the other a cat, to introduce the two animal categories. Then, the learner is given 12 smaller cards, 6 with different pictures of a dog and 6 with different pictures of a cat. The task is to sort the smaller cards into two piles, one for dogs and the other for cats, based on the animal depicted in the picture. The learner is encouraged to observe and compare the pictures to identify the distinguishing features of each animal and group them accordingly. As the learner progresses, the activity can be made more challenging by introducing pictures of animals that are similar such as a horse and a cow, to test their ability to differentiate between similar but unrelated objects. This activity can be used to promote several learning outcomes- visual discrimination classification critical thinking skills It is also a fun and engaging way for learners to explore and learn about different types of animals while practicing essential cognitive skills. This activity was created to be an activity book. However, feel free to print and create to fit your needs. This is a ten-page book with twenty different animals to sort. The different animals can be switched out and rearranged on the different pages to fit the individual learner. Enjoy IFIO girl I'll Figure It Out

This is one reason we like to incorporate music in our learning environments. We don’t have to limit music to music class only for our students. In my store, you’ll find a wide array of music resources that students will love to learn from. This is a music video for your math students in 4th – 6th grade. The title of this song is “Don’t Be Negative.”This is a song and video that will have students learn about negative numbers. This video provides explanations and many examples to support student learning. You can implement this video at the introduction of teaching this math skill. The objective is for students to develop an understanding of what a negative number is. This would be a song that I play multiple times for my students across the course of this unit . It is an MP4 file, so you can download it and have the option of embedding it into any slideshow you may be using for instruction. I hope you enjoy!
