SEL: SLOTH Mindfulness Breathing Calming Activity
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Not Grade Specific, Activities

SEL: SLOTH Mindfulness Breathing Calming Activity is a mindfulness resource that teaches students to focus on their breathing to calm down. Students trace cute designs like a sloth while breathing slowly. This calms the nervous system and improves focus. Use the Trace and Breathe technique whole-class when students need to refocus, like after recess. Or provide copies at a classroom Calm Down Station for individual students to use as needed. This social-emotional learning activity includes a description of the technique, a poster to display, and colored and black-and-white sloth tracing pages for printing. Other animal designs sold separately. To do the activity, students trace the picture slowly while breathing deeply in and out. Pausing between traces calms the body. With practice, students can use this technique independently when frustrated or unfocused. It's perfect for classrooms aiming to improve focus and self-regulation.

Guided Reading Level L - Boats on the Move (with Lesson Plan)

Guided Reading Level L - Boats on the Move (with Lesson Plan)

This Guided Reading Book - Boats on the Move (Level L) 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: Boats on the Move Genre: Nonfiction (informational) Subject: Science (Forces & Motion) / Reading (Informational Text) Primary Topic: Different ways boats move across water Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): L What This Book Teaches Best Different ways boats move on water (wind, oars, paddles, engines). How specific boat parts help movement (sails, mast, ropes, propeller). How coordinated actions affect motion (oars dipping “at the same time” to go straight). How markers guide movement during a race (boats turn around bright orange buoys to stay on track). Comparing speed and movement styles (quiet glide vs fast roar; forward motion by alternating paddle sides). Learning Goals Students will identify several ways boats move across the water using details from the text. Students will explain how sails and wind help pull a boat forward. Students will describe how rowers use oars together to move a boat straight ahead. Students will describe how a double-ended paddle helps a kayak move forward quickly. Students will explain how an engine and propeller help push a motorboat through the water. Students will describe why boats turn around buoys during a race, based on the text. Key Vocabulary From the Text mast — a tall pole that holds sails up. rhythm — a steady pattern of movement. double-ended — having an end on both sides. propeller — a spinning part that helps push a boat. buoys — floating markers that show where to go. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: What are some different ways a boat could move across the water? Comprehension questions: How do large white sails help a boat move forward? What do rowers do “at the same time,” and what does that help the boat do? Why must boats turn around bright orange buoys during a race? 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.
