SEL Flashcards for Social Emotional Learning with SEL Coloring Pages
Special Resources, Life Skills, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Social Skills, Special Education Needs (SEN), Speech Therapy, Preschool, Kindergarten, Grade 1, 2, 3, Activities, Centers, Games, Worksheets & Printables, Flashcards, Worksheets, Coloring Pages
In this SEL product, you will get SEL Flashcards for Social Emotional Learning. You will also get SEL coloring pages because there are two different pages of emotions/feelings. Both pages have a black and white version and a color version. The black and white version allows your students to color their own faces and images. The emotions listed are; happy, sad, silly, proud, shy confused, scared, excited, angry, tired, loving, sick, disgusted, cry, jealous, disappointed. These flashcards can be used for so many purposes. I have used these flashcards for Go Fish games where the students have to ask for a certain feeling. You will need to make two copies of the colored emotions poster to make this game work. If a student asks for "angry" and the student they asked has it, that student give the card to the one who asked and that student places the match down on the table and names a time they felt angry. I have also used this resource for memory games. You would, again, make two copies of each emotion. Then you would mix up the cards and place them face down (I would highly recommend cardstock) in a random order. Students then would choose two cards and reveal the emotion cards. If they are a match, then the student can share when they have felt that way. If it is not a match, they would place the cards face down again the the next student would take a turn. This is a fun and interactive game but also helps students discuss their feelings in a non-threatening way. This resource can be used as a whole class activity where students color their flashcards and then cut them out. They can randomly pick a card and name a time they felt that way. This can also be used as a center activity for Go Fish or Memory (as I described above). The ways to use these Emotion SEL Flashcards are endless!

Phonic Reading Scheme for Older Students: AI: Book 27
Special Resources, ELA, Special Education Needs (SEN), Language Development, Phonics, Reading, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, Literacy Readers, Teacher Tools
This AI decodable reading book + matching PowerPoint + 30 supporting worksheets is in a series that can help children with special needs pupils develop reading fluency. Each book has a matching PowerPoint, making it suitable for various settings. This book is set in Saxon England. The Jack Stories, of which this book is one, introduces one phonic sound at a time, and subsequent books build on the vocabulary of the books before, constantly revising and reviewing learned sounds. Irregular sight words are only slowly and gradually introduced. Science of reading aligned. Based on the most up-to-date phonic research. These books should be read sequentially as they tell one long story, each telling a part. This book contains words with the following sounds: CK: OO, EE and SH and CH, ND & NT Endings, TH, AR, OR, A-E, I-E, O-E, U-E and AI. The series of books can also be purchased as a growing bundle with a scope and sequence - one file, less clutter! This series has been written with the aid of one of my pupils, aged 9. He has drawn some of the pictures. What makes this phonic reading programme for special needs different? · It has its own, easy-to-download and print phonic reading books, making it accessible to many children worldwide. · Each book carefully builds on the vocabulary of those that have gone before, providing much repetition, without relying on predictable text. · Pictures aid the storyline without encouraging reading from the pictures – i.e. guessing. · The vocabulary is based on phonic families, which are introduced in a carefully planned way. · True sight words – those that cannot be sounded out - are kept to a minimum. Most words are introduced in their phonic family wherever possible. · It is truly multisensory, using the power of the hand. We not only look at the words, but we write them too. This is powerful and has the bonus of turning the child not only into a reader but into a writer as well. 30 Worksheets to support the development of reading fluency The worksheets take the pupil from hearing the new sound in words, developing phonemic awareness, to reading passages in preparation for reading the book. It includes the following activities: Spelling Reading Tracking phonemic awareness Reading passages Typical signs that this programme can help: Those with dyslexia, or suspected of having dyslexia Difficulty recalling words when seen on flashcards or when reading texts, which results in no or little reading fluency b/d letter reversal of a chronic nature – i.e. the child has not grown out of it Difficulty ordering letters in words: E.g. top becomes pot. Difficulty differentiating between like words: spoon/soon; back/black; sheep/sleep etc… Difficulty tracking words across a page How long is the book? The reading book is 16 pages long. What is included? 1 PDF 16 pp X A5 Print as a booklet Flip on the short edge One 16-slide PowerPoint 30 Worksheets

This lesson plan was developed for students of various grades and writing abilities. You know your students best, so remove any pages that do not make sense for your students. Included are the following that you may find helpful as a supplement or optional pieces: • An additional information page to be used to supplement any other parts of the report • Blank page that can be copied to expand the report if needed • Two different formats for note-taking pages, depending on how you want them to take notes or if you want to give them a choice. • Rubric for the written report • Editing/Revising Checklist to have students check their work themselves • Common Core Writing Standard Bibliography vs. Resource Page • We have included two ways to have your students cite their sources. You can use either or both. • The Resource Page is a way for young students to learn about resources and the need to have to cite them and give credit to the originators of the information. We have provided an example page and a blank page. • Some elementary students are not ready for a full-blown Bibliography and others are (differentiation). We left this template blank, so you can teach which Bibliography format that you wish to teach or omit it if your students are not yet ready for a bibliography. Essential Questions • One element of the common core standards is the move toward questioning and embedding higher-level thinking questions into the assignments. After the students have learned about the various aspects of weather, they are tasked with answering some questions that involve higher-level thinking skills.

Critical Thinking: Debate with Yourself- Modern Debate Prompts for High School English or Social Studies
ELA, Social Studies, Reading, Reading Comprehension, Strategies, History, Psychology, Grade 9, 10, 11, 12, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
Critical Thinking: Debate with Yourself- Modern Debate Prompts for High School English or Social Studies This is a resource designed to get your students thinking about current issues. It provides five different prompts, inviting students to wrestle with modern issues across themes like personal finance, technology, environmental impact, higher education choices and social media use. In each scenario presented, students are tasked with researching both sides of an issue independently before deciding where they fall on the issue. A Twist to Classroom Debates This activity allows students to 'debate with themselves'. They need to collect support for both sides of the issue before determining their own opinion. This can work well as a small group activity or an individual assignment. Prompt Examples You have been approved for your first credit card (with a $1000 limit). Should you accept this offer? What are the benefits and risks, and what do you need to consider before signing up? You have been accepted into a reasonably-priced state college and a much more expensive university farther from home. What are the pros and cons of each option and which one would you choose? You have an 8 year-old car that runs well, but it is not an electric vehicle. Which is better for the environment: driving the old car longer or getting a brand new electric vehicle? How to Use: These prompts can be used in a variety of ways: Assign different prompts to each student. They research both sides of the issue and write their final opinion. After researching, you could hold a whole class debate where you either assign students to each side or let them choose which side they want to be on. Each side can present their points and rebuttals can be made. Students could (individually or in small groups) present their opinion to the class in a short speech or using a Powerpoint. You could use these topics and the accompanying research as the prompt for a persuasive essay assignment. What's Included: Title Page and a total of 5 different prompts in PDF format. Each prompt has a one-page graphic organizer to record ideas and write a final conclusion. Grades to Use With: These prompts are ideal for high school students in grades 9-12 who are able to research, debate, and/or write persuasive essays.
