Therapy Dog - Helping Students Reflect with Therapy Dogs 🐶💭

Helping Students Reflect with Therapy Dogs 🐶💭 There’s something special about the presence of a therapy dog in the classroom. Even the most restless students seem to relax. Some kids who rarely speak up suddenly open up. And for many, it’s the first time they’ve had a chance to experience the unconditional support that a dog offers. But what if we took that experience and turned it into a learning moment? That’s exactly what this reflection activity does. It helps students think about what kindness means, why responsibility matters, and how their actions affect others—whether those others have two legs or four. Why This Activity Feels Different ✔ It gets students thinking, not just answering. It’s not about memorizing facts. It’s about pausing for a moment and reflecting on simple but meaningful questions. ✔ It connects emotions with actions. Why do therapy dogs have rules? Why does kindness matter? These questions lead to unexpectedly deep discussions. ✔ It’s easy for any grade level. Younger kids can draw their answers, while older students might write or discuss. No one feels left out. ✔ It works with or without a therapy dog. Even if your school doesn’t have one, this still sparks conversations about empathy and responsibility. ✔ No prep required. Just print it out, hand it to students, and let them think. How I Use It in My Classroom 📌 First, we talk. I ask, “How do animals teach us about kindness?” or “What do therapy dogs need from us?” The answers are never what I expect—and that’s the best part. 📌 Then, students reflect. They complete a few simple but thoughtful prompts about their own behavior, their emotions, and what they’ve learned. 📌 Next, we share (if they want to). I never make sharing mandatory. But I’m always surprised by how many students want to. 📌 Finally, we put up the poster. It’s a small reminder that kindness and responsibility go beyond the classroom. 🐶 One more idea: If you have a therapy dog visit your class, have students read their reflections to the dog. You’d be amazed at how much more open and engaged they become! What Other Teachers Have Said ✔ “I used this before our first therapy dog visit, and it made a huge difference in how students behaved around the dog.” ✔ “It’s simple but powerful. The class discussions that came from this were amazing.” ✔ “Perfect for social-emotional learning, even without a therapy dog!” Why This Activity Sticks with Students At the end of the day, this isn’t just another worksheet. It’s a way to help students slow down, think about their actions, and reflect on what really matters—whether that’s how they interact with a therapy dog, a classmate, or the world around them. 📥 Give it a try—you might be surprised by what your students come up with. 🐶✨ 📍 Warmly, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and inspiring learning environment. 🐶✨

This Jails reading comprehension with lesson plan includes: Visualization (on the front cover) Start your lesson by taking a minute to think and share something about the topic. Read the script aloud (slowly), perhaps prepare some music or sound effects. Student close their eyes and let their imaginations wander. Students open their eyes, read the question aloud and give them a few minutes to complete. Ask a few students to share or keep answers until the end to compare with what they learn in the passage. Quick pause—thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership. Download links and encyclopedia index available here. Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. Give 1 minute for students to write what they already know (no pressure—best guess is fine). Read the five facts together. After each fact, do ask a student for their opinion, was it surprising? Set a purpose by asking students to highlight/underline one fact they want to learn more about during the reading. Reading Passage The text is a high-interest reading passage with set paragraphs, roughly three to four paragraphs long. It contains a variety of themes about the topic, anywhere from history to technology. The passage is between 250 and 350 words in length. First, ask students to look at the headings and see what they’ll learn about today. What do they know about the topic/heading? First read options: Teacher read-aloud (best for support). Partner reading (paragraph by paragraph). While reading, students underline important details, and vocabulary words they think may come up in the questions section. Mixed Questions The first question page contains four multiple-choice questions, each with a choice of four answers, and three written response questions that require a sentence or two from the student. Students complete the mcqs first independently, then review quickly as a class. For the 3 written responses, try to get students giving the answer with some form of evidence: “I think ___ because the text says ___.” If students get stuck, send them back to check the passage. Vocabulary Questions Practice seven key words from the text in this section across two activities. First section is scrambled words where students will unscramble three words given a clue for each. The second section is a word to meaning matching activity. Before starting, have some students read out words they underlined in the passage. Ask students to say the word and read aloud the sentence(s) around each word. Ask students to do scrambled words and the matching exercise in pairs then go through answers as a class. For the scrambled spelling task, get four pairs to come up to the board and write the words for extra practice with the other student reading out the clue. For the matching task, prompt students to give full sentences: “I matched ___ with ___ because ___.” Creative Writing In this question, the student will be required to write a five to eight sentence paragraph on a question related to the topic. Before starting, ask students write down 3 key ideas they are going to include in their piece. Ask students for ideas to share around the class to help those struggling. Pro writing expectations: 5–8 sentences At least 2 facts or details from the passage At least 2 vocabulary words from the previous page Students read their paragraphs while classmates listen for facts and vocabulary words. Extension Activities This page is optional for fast finishers or to take home. There are several activities, each one requiring a different skill. Do some, do none, do all, completely optional - but you will feel reassured knowing every possibility is planned for. Includes summary writting question and additional facts. Answer Key There are answers for the multiple-choice questions, written response questions have sample answers, vocabulary answers and if there is a summary question then a sample summary will be provided as well. Lesson Plan Included Customized lesson plan for this lesson is included. Lesson Snapshot Title: Jails Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Social Studies (Civics) / Reading (Informational Text) Primary Topic: What jails are and how they differ from prisons Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): S What This Lesson Teaches Best Explains what a jail is and why people may be there for a short time (waiting for a court date or serving short sentences). Uses history to show how jails were used long ago (England, 1166) and why the spelling “gaol” appeared. Clarifies the difference between “jail” and “prison” in formal American and Canadian English (pretrial custody/shorter sentences vs. longer sentences). Connects jails to community routines and civic values (rules, safety checks, fairness, harm prevention, justice). Builds understanding of how word choice and definitions matter when discussing systems and government roles (counties vs. state/federal). Learning Goals Describe what a jail is and give two reasons people may be held there. Explain how early jails in England were used and what “gaol” means in the passage. Explain what changed in the 1790s in the United States, according to the text. Compare a jail and a prison using details from the passage. Identify examples of routines and rules in jails and explain why they matter. Key Vocabulary From the Text booking — recording a new person in jail. cells — small rooms where people are held. trial — a court process to decide a case. convicted — found guilty of a crime. reform — help someone change for the better.

Students read two leveled passages (Grades 2–3 and Grades 4–5), then move through a short, consistent sequence of activities that checks understanding and keeps momentum: multiple-choice, brief written responses, a scrambled-words review, a compact summary task, and a light theme-linked word problem. The flow is predictable for students, but varied enough to feel fresh across topics. Each completed resource includes: Two differentiated reading passages (lower and upper level) A multiple-choice comprehension page Short written-response questions A scrambled-words or quick vocabulary check A brief summary activity A simple, theme-connected word problem Answer keys for fast marking and easy self-checking Nine classroom-friendly formats, including print, editable, digital, and self-grading options Themes Included These readings span a wide range of age-appropriate, high-interest topics, such as: Seasons and celebrations Real-world science and nature Community, character, and life skills Everyday high-frequency themes students already enjoy Each title connects to familiar experiences while strengthening comprehension, vocabulary in context, and clear written expression. Easy extensions (optional): Read twice: first for gist, second to highlight key details Write two “right there” questions and swap with a partner Create a 3-bullet fact list or mini mind map Turn the summary into a 3-sentence retell using sequence words Add one extra math question connected to the topic Compare the two levels: what details appear in both? Differentiation tips: Pre-teach 2–3 key words with quick examples Offer sentence starters for written responses Use partner reading: one reads aloud, one tracks evidence Allow highlighting or underlining before answering questions Provide a shorter chunking option for students who need breaks Encourage confident readers to justify answers with a quoted detail For similar downloads and other frees, do check out Cored Group on TeachSimple.

Healthy Food Coloring Pages - Apples, Blueberries, Pumpkin, Tomatoes, Broccoli, and more! These giant fruit and vegetable images with nice thick borders will be a joy to color for your students, regular education as well as SPED (special education). Since each page contains only one word on top of the page and one word (two max) at the bottom of each page, these pages can be helpful with speech therapy sessions as well. Coloring helps develop fine motor skills. Each fruit and vegetable page contains a small example on the top left-hand corner of the page to aid students with choosing the colors. There are 30 unique fruits and vegetables in this food coloring pages pack. They include: Fruits: Red - Apple Orange - Cantaloupe Blue - Blueberries Orange - Orange Purple - Blackberry Red - Raspberry Green - Avocado (Can be considered a vegetable also) Yellow - Banana Orange - Cantaloupe Red - Cherry Purple - Grapes Green - Kiwi Yellow - Lemon Green - Lime Orange - Peach Yellow - Pineapple Purple - Plum Vegetables: Purple - Cabbage Yellow - Squash (No border due to glitch with color of squash greying out). Orange - Pumpkin Red - Chili Pepper Orange - Sweet Potato Orange - Carrot Purple - Carrot Blue Purple - Asparagus Red - Tomato (Can be considered as a fruit as well). Red - Beet Green - Broccoli Yellow - Corn Yellow - Sweet Pepper These coloring pages can be used as task cards, either full size or you can shrink the size when you print. Students who are early readers or learning ESL (English as a Second Language) can benefit from the extra-large words on the pages. A single color and name of fruit/vegetable is on each page with matching borders (except for yellow squash which has no border). Students can sort the fruits from the vegetables. Students can alphabetize the pages. Students can color the pages (even older students enjoy coloring) as something to do with their hands and to keep their concentration while the teacher is teaching a lesson on food, health, or nutrition. All fruits and vegetables have matching borders except for yellow squash due to a glitch in the program I used to create it. 31 pages including cover sheet Downloadable printable pdf
