The Defeat of the Spanish Armada (1588), an engaging skit!
Social Studies, High School, Middle School, Activities
I enjoy actively involving my students in the classroom, and what better way to achieve this than by reenacting history? This skit brings the dramatic events of the summer of 1588 to life, emphasizing the significance of England’s victory over the Spanish Armada in the English Channel. There are plenty of roles available for students, including options for those who may be hesitant to participate. Less enthusiastic performers can portray English sailors or soldiers who cheer on Queen Elizabeth. For added fun, they can toss “paper balls” at one another, representing Spanish troops, during the Battle of Gravelines scene. This keeps the experience both engaging and educational. The skit also includes a portion of Queen Elizabeth I’s famous speech delivered at the height of the battle. Most importantly, it concludes with a review of why this moment was pivotal: Spain’s dominance began to fade while England rose in power. Additionally, Spain would no longer be able to prevent English colonization efforts in North America, with Jamestown being founded within two decades. I use this skit to enrich my lesson on "The English Come to North America," helping students connect with the historical roots of England’s presence in the New World. Lasting about 10–15 minutes, it’s a lively and effective addition to the curriculum.

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.

Help the child to emphasise the initial sound if necessary. Let him/her look in a mirror to see whether the lips start together for ‘m’ or apart for ‘n’. If the picture belongs on the player’s board it is placed in position. If not it is returned face down. Encourage the other player to try and remember where it is for his/her next turn. This helps in the training of the memory. 3. Play passes to the other player who does the same - until one player completes his/her board. Play then ends and that player is the winner. 4. Add excitement to the game with the use of the star card, which if selected means the player misses a turn.

This customizable choice board resource empowers students (especially those with special needs) to select tailored calming strategies fitting their individual preferences and ability levels. The foundation consists of a blank choice board grid displaying 8 picture box spaces per page. The accompanying word/image deck contains 12 illustrated calming technique cards to fill designated boxes, including: exercise, squeeze stress ball, count back from 10, take deep breaths, draw or color, listen to music, go to calm area, have a hug, write down your feelings, talk it through with an adult, play wioth sensory toys or have a drink of water. Teachers and students collaboratively select which personalized options suit that child’s needs and sensory-input levels to feature, rotating items over time. To use teachers can laminate and put velcro on the back of the cards so they can be easily moveable and reusable. This scaffolds self-regulation skills for students who struggle communicating verbally while upset. Having tailored calming choices pre-identified prevents overstimulation or power struggles requiring disciplinary response. It also builds students’ awareness of techniques that actually soothe them individually long-term. Portable for various settings and customizable, these printable choice cards nurture emotional competence with student autonomy!

To make implementation easy for you as instructors/educators/homeschooling parents dealing with various learning strategies, you'll value that these materials simply need printing – they could last longer if laminated – then they're all ready! If preferred colors then have kids color away on their own versions increasing fun while integrating it with function!
