Have you had enough of students throwing tantrums over minor issues? This COMPLETE set of materials will help you to promote emotional regulation in your classroom and/or counselling office. This complete print-and-go curriculum will teach students in grades 1 – 3 the important difference between a “glitch” and an “emergency.” Based upon the popular “Size of The Problem” concept, this toolkit goes far beyond simple worksheets by providing a comprehensive, neuroscience-based approach to building self-regulation skills. This is not just a bunch of activities; it is a comprehensive multi-week program that allows students to learn how their brain works, understand the size of their problems, and respond to those problems with appropriate emotional responses. This program can be used by any teacher, school counselor, special education teacher, or occupational therapist. WHAT IS IN THE PACKAGE - 43 Pages of High Value Content Part 1 – Theory and Clinical Guide (11 Pages) – A detailed educator guide to why the approach is used. This section will include an explanation of the neurobiology of an "amygdala hijack," a review of the principles of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and an explanation of the research supporting visual scales as an assessment tool for young learners. Part 2 – Engaging Student Workbook (20 Pages) – 10 Scaffolded Worksheets: Fun, relatable activities that allow the learners to develop their ability to identify problem sizes and their reaction to those problems. Topics Include: Problem Thermometer, Reaction Rulers, The Match Game, Shrink the Mismatch, What If? Lab, Body Signals, Perspective Taking, and a Personal Problem Map. Part 3 – Teacher Resources and Visuals (12 Pages) – 3 Visual Models for teachers: Classroom poster ("The Proportional Magnitude Scale"), an assessment matrix, and a cognitive mapping flowchart – all are perfect for use as anchor charts and for daily reference. Answer Keys for the student worksheets make it easy to assess your students. Detailed Implementation Guide for teachers: This guide contains a detailed week by week implementation plan for introducing conceptual information and providing reinforcement for long-lasting effects, including scripts and suggestions for implementation activities. Support your students as they develop a base of emotional awareness and skills to be able to deal with emotions throughout their life. Provide your students with the opportunity to not only deal with their emotional responses but to also develop the ability to know, evaluate and manage their emotional responses. CATEGORIES OF LEARNERS: Elementary Education, Social Emotional Learning; Copywriter; Emotion Regulator; Teacher; Student; Self-Regulator; Reference; Help With; Size Of The Problem; Coping Skills; Student Management; Meltdowns; Workbook; Worksheets; Visuals; Posters; Anchor Charts-School; Elementary Grades: 1st, 2nd, 3rd; School Counseling; Special Education; CBT. Reasons for Parents/Schools to Appreciate: Science Based Approach: Proven theories of neurobiology and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) provide a scientific basis for the works that are performed based on their use. Develops Lifelong Skills for Children: Children acquire a language and visual representations of their feelings, enabling them to have the tools they need to cope and manage their feelings as well develop independence and resiliency. Reduces Disruption in Classrooms: Students become more self-regulated and are less likely to act out over little things such as breaking a crayon or losing a game. Therefore, there is increased time for typical learning. A Complete Program: The online program is complete and provides all of the materials needed to teach the program to students. Teachers and counselors do not need to create or gather materials themselves; the time savings are significant! Target audience: According to the content, language, and examples of your product (for example, "first through third grades", 7-9 year-old case studies) the target is: Main Student Audience: 1st Grade to 3rd Grade students (6-9 years). Main Buyer Audience: Elementary school teachers, special education teachers, school counsellors, school psychologists, occupational therapists (OT's), child therapists, and the concerned parents of children who have difficulties regulating their emotions.

This hiking 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: Hiking Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Health / Physical Education Primary Topic: What hiking is, its history, and staying safe Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): Q What This Lesson Teaches Best Defines hiking as “more than a stroll” and describes what hiking feels like on a trail or footpath.

Teaches basic hiking safety and preparedness (boots/shoes, backpack supplies, and the “Ten Essentials” such as a compass and first-aid kit). Names risks hikers can face when weather shifts or routes disappear, including dehydration and hypothermia. Learning Goals Students will describe what hiking is using details from the passage. Students will explain why people walked long ago and how walking for pleasure grew later. Students will identify why trails needed signs, maps, and protection as more people hiked. Students will describe what the passage says about the Appalachian Trail (where it stretches and how long it is). Students will list items hikers pack to “stay alert” and connect them to safety. Students will name risks mentioned in the text that can affect hikers’ bodies. Key Vocabulary From the Text pilgrimages — long journeys taken for religious reasons. destinations — places people want to go or visit. organizations — groups that work together for a purpose. dehydration — not enough water in the body. hypothermia — when the body gets too cold.

Lesson Snapshot Title: The Universe Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Science (Earth & Space Science) Primary Topic: Evidence the universe is expanding over time Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): S What This Lesson Teaches Best Defines universe as “all of space and time and everything inside them,” expanding beyond the idea of stars as a “roof” above Earth. Explains how improved telescopes helped people realize some “cloudy” spots were actually faraway galaxies beyond the Milky Way. Uses the idea of galaxy light “shifted toward red” to show galaxies moving away and that space itself is stretching. Introduces the Big Bang as an explanation for expansion from a hotter, denser beginning, including the estimated age of the universe (about 13.8 billion years). Builds scientific curiosity by highlighting unanswered questions about “dark” ingredients that can’t be seen directly but affect the universe through gravity and expansion. Learning Goals Students will explain what the word universe means using details from the passage. Students will describe how better telescopes changed what people understood about “cloudy” spots in the sky. Students will explain what “shifted toward red” light suggests about galaxies and space stretching. Students will summarize the Big Bang idea as the universe expanding from a hotter, denser state. Students will describe why looking deep into space can also mean looking back in time. Students will identify one mystery scientists still study about the universe mentioned in the text. Key Vocabulary From the Text universe — all space, time, and everything inside them. galaxies — huge groups of stars far beyond the Milky Way. stretching — space expanding so distances grow larger. expanding — growing bigger as space spreads out. gravity — a force that affects everything by pulling.

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. 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: Skateboarding Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Social Studies (history/culture) / Physical Education (sports) Primary Topic: How skateboarding began and evolved Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): R What This Lesson Teaches Best How skateboarding started in California when surfers tried “sidewalk surfing” using boards and roller-skate wheels. How a problem (hard wheels and injury worries) led to a decline around 1966, and how a new solution helped the sport return. How new technology (polyurethane wheels that gripped and rolled smoothly) changed what riders could do and how safe it felt. How places to ride shaped new styles, from parks with banks/curves to pools, then street spots like curbs, stairs, and rails. How a timeline of key decades/years (1940s–50s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1995, Tokyo 2020/2021) shows the sport’s growth into major events. Learning Goals Describe why skateboarding began and what early riders used to make boards roll. Explain why skateboarding “nearly disappeared” around 1966 using details from the text. Identify how polyurethane wheels changed riding and why turns felt more controllable. Describe how skate parks and empty swimming pools helped create vertical skating and half-pipes. Explain how street-style skateboarding grew and name major events mentioned in the passage. Key Vocabulary From the Text polyurethane — a wheel material that grips and rolls smoothly. contests — competitions where people try to win. controllable — easy to control and not scary. vertical — going up steeply, like riding up walls. debut — first time something appears in an event.

Explains types of drought (meteorological vs. hydrological) and describes what changes in streams, reservoirs, and groundwater. Uses concrete signs/evidence of drought (no puddles, dull grass, cracked ground, animals traveling farther, rivers showing more rocks). Connects history to learning: the Dust Bowl in the 1930s and how it led to soil-saving methods and drought indices. Introduces modern monitoring and responses (rain gauges, river sensors, satellites; fixing leaks, reusing water, collecting rain). Learning Goals Students will define drought using the book’s description and time frames. Students will identify signs of drought described in the passage (e.g., puddles, grass, cracked ground, rivers). Students will explain the difference between meteorological drought and hydrological drought using text evidence. Students will describe what happened during the Dust Bowl and why it mattered for tracking dryness. Students will describe ways droughts are monitored today and one way communities can respond. Key Vocabulary From the Text meteorological — related to weather and rainfall or snow. hydrological — related to water in rivers, reservoirs, and underground. groundwater — water stored under the ground. indices — numbers used to compare and track dryness. evapotranspiration — water moving from land and plants into air.

Guided Reading Level N - Shenyang (with Lesson Plan)

This Guided Reading Book - Shenyang (Level N) 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: Global Cities: Shenyang Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Social Studies (Geography/Culture) Primary Topic: Landmarks, history, and modern life in Shenyang Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): N What This Book Teaches Best Identifies Shenyang’s location and role (largest city in Northeast China; capital of Liaoning province) and connects it to major waterways in the Liaohe River Basin.

Explains how Shenyang developed as an industrial powerhouse , including the Tiexi District’s factory history and preserved museum sites. Shows how a city can blend old and new (Middle Street’s long history alongside modern malls; modern landmarks like the TV Tower and lit-up riverfront). Describes how climate shapes culture , including long, snowy winters and yearly ice-sculpture displays in parks. Learning Goals Identify what the text says Shenyang is the capital of. Describe how rivers and basins are connected to Shenyang’s location and development in the text. Explain what the Shenyang Imperial Palace was used for in the past, based on the text. Describe one way Shenyang’s industry shaped the city in the 20th century. Describe how Shenyang’s winters influence activities and traditions mentioned in the book.

Key Vocabulary From the Text situated — located in a certain place. heritage — important history and traditions remembered and protected. mausoleum — a large building where someone is buried. powerhouse — a place important for producing something. metropolitan — connected to a big city and nearby areas. 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.

Lesson Snapshot Title: Hovercraft Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Science / Engineering (transportation) Primary Topic: How hovercraft ride on air and where they’re used Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): Q What This Lesson Teaches Best Explains how a hovercraft rides on a “cushion of air trapped underneath,” instead of sitting in water. Describes why the air cushion reduces rubbing so the craft can slide over water, sand, or flat grass. Gives a brief invention history (an 1870s patented idea, then a smarter 1950s improvement to stop air leaking). Shows how design changes improved performance, including the flexible “skirt” for obstacles and choppy water. Connects hovercraft to real-world uses today (ferries, rescue missions, military landings, racing/recreation) and notes challenges like wind and waves. Learning Goals Students will describe how a hovercraft is like a boat, a small airplane, and a moving fan. Students will explain how an air cushion helps a hovercraft slide with very little rubbing. Students will describe how Christopher Cockerell improved hovercraft by reducing air leaking in the 1950s. Students will identify the SR.N1 and tell what happened when it was shown to the public on June 11, 1959. Students will explain how the flexible “skirt” helped hovercraft handle obstacles and choppy water. Students will list at least two places or jobs hovercraft can do today, using text evidence. Key Vocabulary From the Text patented — legally protected an invention idea. pressure — pushing force of trapped air underneath. flexible — able to bend without breaking. obstacles — things in the way that block movement. ferries — boats that carry people across a route.
