Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Not Grade Specific, Activities
SEL: TURKEY Mindfulness Breathing Calming Activity is a resource to help students manage their emotions. This useful teaching tool guides students to take a mindful moment to breathe and trace the outline of the turkey with their finger. As they slowly trace the turkey, they focus on taking long, deep breaths to promote calmness. Use this activity to teach social emotional learning skills. When students feel frustrated, angry, silly or overly excited, teach them to use the trace and breathe technique. This will help students learn to self-regulate their emotions. With practice, children can use this method to relax themselves in stressful situations. The resource includes colorful and black-and-white turkey tracing pages plus posters explaining the trace and breathe steps. Give copies printed on heavy paper to individual students or laminate them for reuse. Display posters in the classroom as a reminder when students need redirection. Rotate the turkey pattern with other designs offered in bundles sorted by theme. Incorporate trace and breathe as part of your classroom procedures or guidance lessons. Use it with individual students who struggle with self-regulation. Allow students to select a personal tracing sheet to keep in their desk. Set up a calming corner with trace and breathe supplies including page protectors and a binder for pattern storage. When students visit the space, they can pick a design to help them refocus before transitioning back to work. The simple trace and breathe technique gives children a portable, effective way to manage their feelings.

Democritus – Introducing a Pioneer of Atomic Theory | PDF + H5P
Life Sciences, Science, STEM, History: World, History, Social Studies, Biographies, Inventors, Basic Science, Human Body, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, Worksheets, Worksheets & Printables, Quizzes, Quizzes and Tests, Teacher Tools, Projects, Activities
Democritus – Introducing a Pioneer of Atomic Theory Informational text, profile worksheet, and interactive quiz (PDF + H5P) 🧪📄 This resource introduces students to Democritus, one of the earliest thinkers to describe the idea of atoms. Although his theories were based on philosophy rather than experimental science, his work laid the foundation for what would later become atomic theory. The material is designed for use in grades 7–10 and works well in both subject-specific chemistry lessons and interdisciplinary settings such as history of science or philosophy of science. What’s included: Informational text on Democritus Printable profile worksheet Answer key for the profile Quiz questions based on the text (with solutions) Two extension tasks: – Students write their own questions about the text – Exchange and answer questions with a partner File formats: – Printable and digital PDF – Editable .docx version (text only) – H5P version for interactive use in LMS platforms (no images) How I use it: The material can be used as part of a chemistry unit introducing atomic models or scientific thinking. I’ve also used it in non-specialist substitute lessons, since the tasks are self-explanatory and include answer keys. Students first read the text and complete a short profile about Democritus, then move on to quiz questions for comprehension. The optional extension tasks promote active engagement and peer interaction, and are ideal if you want to add 10–15 extra minutes to the lesson. This resource works in traditional classroom settings, for independent work, or in digital environments thanks to the H5P version. It’s also useful for differentiating – more advanced students can create and exchange their own questions, while others focus on the basics. No extra prep required – just print or upload, and the lesson is ready to go. Have fun exploring the world of science with your students! Warmly, Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we focus on creating a positive and inspiring learning environment.
