Do you find that there are many complicated (and sometimes unseen) conflicts in your 4th, 5th, and 6th grade classroom? From conflicts on the playground to having miscommunication on group chat, pre-adolescents have a much more difficult time managing their social world than they ever did before. This curriculum on Conflict Resolution and Peer Mediation is a complete, research-supported program that will help you empower your students with the tools necessary for success in looking at conflict in a way that is positive and productive. This is not just another collection of worksheets; this is a complete Social Emotional Learning (SEL) toolkit that has been created for the modern student. Based on developmental psychology, this curriculum will address the two types of settings in which pre-adolescents experience conflict: the physical environment of the playground and the virtual environment of today's digital world (gaming, social media, texting). Using the use of "scripted roleplay scaffolding" methodology, this curriculum will enable a child to bypass the "fight or flight" response and give them the exact words and tools they need to de-escalate an argument, share their feelings in a healthy way, and resolve conflict. Additionally, by providing the student with a "lexical bridge," they will be able to articulate complex emotions (jealousy, exclusion, betrayal) in a manner that will promote empathy and understanding. What's Included in the 48 Page PDF File Section One - Guidelines for Teachers This section provides an in-depth overview of the theory and methodology used in the development of these scripts along with the reasons behind their creation. It covers issues such as social dynamics of pre-teens, the difference between intent versus impact, and the unique challenges of dealing with conflict in the digital world (Online Disinhibition Effect). Section Two - Eleven Worksheets for Students These are the main component of the curriculum and consist of eleven interactive worksheets that incorporate real-life scenarios faced by students on a daily basis. The worksheets cover a broad range of scenarios dealing with: Group Chat Misunderstanding (Roblox, text messaging) Disputes between Playground Rules (Four Square) Digital Exclusion (Multi Player Gaming, Minecraft) "I Was Only Playing" and Cyber Bullying Rumors, Gossip, and Broken Trust The Challenge of Inclusion (Cafeteria Seating) De-Escalation Strategies for Youth Valuing Digital Property and Creations Section Three - This teacher resource package includes all necessary materials needed to complete each portion of the curriculum. Visual Support: Printable, easy-to-read diagrams outlining the Peer Mediation Pathway, conflict escalation, and I-Statement structure. Complete Answer Key: Sample answers for all questions in the curriculum supporting main concepts of de-escalation and restorative language. Full Implementation Guide: Step-by-step directions for introducing your curriculum, implementing role-playing (including "Fishbowl" method), differentiating for all learning levels, and addressing and assisting with common challenges. Provide your students with a lifelong gift: confidence and ability to develop healthy friendships and resolve conflicts calmly and with compassion. This curriculum is for teachers, counselors, social workers and administrators. Keyword SEO: Conflict Resolution; Peer Mediation; Social Emotional Learning; Grammarly; Digital Citizenship; Cyberbullying; Anti-Bullying; Worksheets; 4th Grade; 5th Grade; 6th Grade; Middle School; School Counselor; Restorative Justice; I-Statements; Role Playing Scripts; Classroom Management; Friendship Skills. Why Parents Schools Appreciate It: Provides the Exact Words: Rather than telling children what to do, it gives them exactly how to express themselves in situations of high stress. This "lexical certainty" is a game changer for those children who become overwhelmed by a situation and don’t know what to say. Addresses Today’s Technological Conflicts of the New Millennium: This curriculum goes beyond teaching children outdated scenarios to dealing with real types of digital situations that they face today, such as gaming exclusion, misunderstandings with friends on a group text message, and dealing with the impact of a “seen” message. Therefore, it is extremely relevant and effective. Research-based & Developmentally Appropriate: The method used in this curriculum is based on solid principles of child psychology and understands the concrete scaffolding that pre-adolescents need to utilize when managing complex feelings. It provides a structured safe environment in which to practice empathy. Comprehensive No Preparation Resource: This is a complete 48-page curriculum, not a single worksheet, along with a teacher’s guide, visual aids, student workbook, and an answer key, therefore providing the educator and/or counselor an immediate implementation resource with a high level of confidence. Builds Lifelong Skills: This curriculum is a method of solving conflicts today, it also creates the building blocks for rewiring a child’s approach to conflict as they move into adulthood and creating the neurological pathways to become more mature, empathetic, and resilient in relationships as an adult. Target Audience Classes : After conducting a thorough review of their report, the authors (PDF) specifically identified the following groups as targets based on a potential audience needs analysis: Grades: Fourth grade through sixth grade Ages: Approximately 9 to 12 years The authors also have tailored to this developmental stage, as well as their own peer social groupings, such as on playgrounds, in-game chat rooms (Roblox, Minecraft), and with friends via group messenger/chat program. Thus, they provide great information directed towards students in early/middle school and also those working with them professionally (school counselor/social worker).

More actual skill-building. Students are given practical systems they can use immediately. Built for middle school. The lessons address the jump from one highly scaffolded classroom to multiple teachers, deadlines, digital systems, and cumulative assessments. No moralizing. The curriculum treats organization, procrastination, and studying as skills with teachable mechanisms—not character flaws. Easy to monitor. The four-point rubric tracks independence, consistency, transfer, and growth without turning study skills into a traditional academic grade. Designed for independence. By Grade 8, students are encouraged to transfer these systems across classes and prepare for the demands of high school. ✨ Give middle school students the tools to understand how to be a student —before high school makes the gaps more expensive. Download the Study Skills Resource Pack for Grades 6–8 and give your students routines they can actually use across their school day.

Tipping is becoming more and more common and the amount you are expected to tip is increasing too. Make sure your students understand what tipping is and how to calculate a tip- useful life skills! Here’s a ready-to-print real-life percent math lesson for middle school students (in grades 6-9) or special education or life skills classes in a high school setting. Teach your class all about tipping culture and tips in both Canada and the United States. Why do people tip or give certain people a gratuity? What places do we tip? What places do we not? Has tipping been increasing recently ("tip-flation")? Show students how the math skills and concepts that they have been learning in class (percentages, decimals, division, fractions) can be useful in their everyday lives! How to Use: 1. The first page is a handout that you complete with your students (with fill-in-the-blanks) to teach them the ins and outs of tipping: where and when you do it, etc. 2. The second page teaches students two simple methods of calculating tips (using well-known percentage benchmarks OR multiplying the price by a percentage written in decimal form). Encourage your students to determine a third method they could use. 3. After that, there are 7 practice word problems of realistic tipping situations that your students can complete. From tipping for a meal to paying at a salon, or even calculating tax AND tip together, your students will get a lot of real-life practice completing these problems in small groups or own their own. 4. To finish, you can have a class discussion about tipping in general and what your students think about our system. What's Included: 6 Page PDF - Teacher Instructions - Handout with Fill-in-the-Blanks about Tipping - 3-Page Worksheet and Written Reflection - COMPLETE ANSWER KEY INCLUDED If you want more practice working with tips try these two products: Fractions for Calculating Taxes, Tips and Sales Percents for Calculating Taxes, Tips, and Sales

This fully planned out unit, straying away from Climate Anxiety and allowing students to build agency related to climate action, can be printed right out of this document and used in the classroom immediately. Designed for use in Grades 5–7 (ages 10–14), students will progress through this unit comprehensively by learning about the Carbon Cycle, measuring their actual CO₂e emissions, and creating their own personal plan for sustainability. The unit provides scientific text, real-world case studies (i.e. The Life of a White Cotton T-shirt), 10 individual audit worksheets related to home energy, transportation, diet, consumption, and water use. There is a Carbon Calculator provided which translates students' daily habits into actual data as well as templates for SMART Goal Setting and Advocacy Letters to promote action from students after completing the project. The materials align with NGSS (Earth and Human Activity Standard) and are ideal for Earth Day, STEM, or to promote Environmental Literacy throughout the rest of the school year. Not only does this package come with an extensive Teacher's Guide complete with answer keys, grading rubrics, visual aids, and a flexible 5-day pacing guide; the materials have been scaffolded to help mitigate eco-anxiety with both kindness and evidence-based science. The highlights include: 4 engaging chapters on greenhouse gases, CO₂e, and Life Cycle Assessment 10 student audit worksheets and a Carbon Calculator to synthesize student audit results SMART Goals Workshop for setting student action plans and evaluating systemic actions Professional writing activity related to Advocacy Letters A comprehensive Teacher Key, including Answer Keys, Grading Rubrics, and 5-Day Unit Plan All materials have been classroom-tested and proved to be effective. Appreciated by Parents and Educators: Empowerment Versus Fear – Empowers children and youth to make positive changes by turning their fear of climate change into tangible steps they can take themselves. Real-World Math/Data Skills – Develops mathematics and data-based skills through the calculation of CO₂e from current activities, reinforcing applied math and unit conversion skills and improving critical thinking.

Teacher-friendly, Minimal Prep/Materials Needed – All materials required for implementation are provided (e.g., rubrics, answer keys, visuals, and 5-day pacing guides), so even non-science specialists can implement without difficulty. Opens Up Conversation at Home/School/Community – The advocacy letter and family audit provide an avenue for discussion beyond the classroom, resulting in actual changes to household sustainability. Targeted Grade Levels: The statement in the introduction clearly states that targeted grade levels are ‘5th, 6th, and 7th Grade.’ Therefore, because the math being introduced in this program involves multiplication, metric/unit conversions, basic percentage reasoning and cognitive complexity, I believe students in grades 5 through 7 will best use this resource as follows: Primary Group: 5th – 7th Grade (10-13 year olds) Secondary/Extension Group: (4th Grade) Advanced; 8th – 9th Grade as a basic review of what they learned in grades 5 and/or 6.

Math Project: How to Make Circle Graphs and Pie Charts

Math Project: How to Make Circle Graphs and Pie Charts
Math, Percentages, Geometry, Graphing, Statistics, Grade 5, 6, 7, 8, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools, Projects, Activities

This fun math project includes clear step-by-step instructions to show your students how to make a circle graph. This is a great way to review several math skills while showing how useful they can be! Tasks include: - Writing a survey question: Your students learn to write a question that has exactly six possible answers. - Collecting data: Your students can ask the members of your class their question. They collect data using a tally chart. They need to ask exactly 25 people. - Recording results as a fraction: Once they have their data, they can turn each answer into a fraction with a denominator of 25. - Calculating an equivalent fraction: Then, they calculate an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 100. - Working with percent (written as a decimal): Finally, they turn that fraction into a percent in decimal form. They use this percent to multiply by 360 degrees in a circle (they can use a calculator for this part) to find out how many degrees each answer gets. - Drawing angles with a protractor: They carefully draw the six angles in their pie chart, one by one. - Labeling a graph: They label the graph to make it clear for others to read. Grades to Use WIth: This math project works well in the middle grades (4-8) when students know how to use protractors, calculate with fractions and decimals, and make graphs. It could also work well in a high school special education classroom. What's Included: A total of 5 pages. in PDF Format Title Page Survey Page Equivalent Fractions Page Decimals Page Circle Graph Template Standards: 7th Grade Geometry: Draw shapes with specific conditions. 4th Grade Fractions: Write equivalent fractions.

Transform your students from passive listeners into masterful storytellers with this complete, no-prep Podcasting Interview Skills Unit! Are you looking for an engaging, real-world project that goes beyond the traditional essay or book report? This comprehensive resource is designed to teach middle school students the sophisticated art of conducting powerful podcast interviews. Students will move beyond simple Q&A and learn to become architects of inquiry, crafting open-ended questions, listening actively, and unearthing compelling narratives. This is more than just a set of worksheets; it's a full-fledged pedagogical journey into the heart of communication, critical thinking, and media literacy. Perfect for your ELA, Journalism, Public Speaking, or Media Studies class, this unit equips students with the 21st-century skills they need to succeed. What's Included in this 48-Page Resource? This unit is meticulously structured into three phases to ensure student success and make implementation a breeze for you: Part 1: The Methodology & Theory (10 Pages) Deep dive into the "Architecture of Inquiry." Clear explanations of open-ended vs. closed questions, active listening, and structuring a narrative arc. Engaging case studies and examples that illustrate core concepts like "Narrative Anchors" and "Thematic Buckets." Strategies for troubleshooting common interview problems like reluctant guests or tangents. Part 2: The Student Workbook (19 Pages) 10 scaffolded, high-interest worksheets that move students from theory to practice. Exercises on identifying and transforming weak questions, drafting powerful follow-ups, spotting "the drop," using the "5 Whys" technique, structuring a narrative, navigating emotion, and more. A final "Master Blueprint" worksheet that guides students in creating a full interview outline from start to finish. Part 3: Visuals & Teacher Resources (19 Pages) Classroom-Ready Visual Aids: Three clear, printable anchor charts/visual frameworks explaining the core concepts (Anatomy of a Question, Active Listening Funnel, Interview Flow). Comprehensive Answer Key: Detailed, exemplar answers and pedagogical notes for all 10 student worksheets to make grading easy and effective. A Complete Teacher Implementation Guide: A 5-day+ lesson plan that walks you through direct instruction, modeling, guided practice, role-playing activities, and a final audio documentary project. Assessment Rubric: A clear, 4-point rubric for grading the final student interview project, focusing on question quality, narrative structure, follow-up agility, and audio professionalism. This isn't just a project; it's an experience. Watch your students' confidence soar as they learn to listen with empathy, think on their feet, and curate truth through the power of the human voice. Why Parents/Schools Love It: Develops Core Critical Thinking Skills: This curriculum explicitly teaches students how to move beyond surface-level facts and analyze information, synthesize ideas, and construct logical inquiries—skills essential for academic and life success. Builds 21st-Century Communication Skills: In an age of digital distraction, this program cultivates the "soft skills" that are most in demand: active listening, empathetic conversation, public speaking, and clear articulation of thought. Promotes Media & Digital Literacy: Instead of just consuming media, students become thoughtful creators. They learn the process behind the podcasts they listen to, gaining a deeper understanding of narrative construction and journalistic ethics. Provides Authentic, Real-World Application: Students are highly motivated by this project because it feels relevant and real. They are not just learning for a test; they are creating a tangible product (an audio documentary) that they can be proud of. Comprehensive and Teacher-Friendly: This is a complete, "plug-and-play" unit. The detailed teacher's guide, answer keys, and rubric save educators dozens of hours of prep time, making it easy for schools to implement a high-quality, engaging curriculum. Target Student Classes : Based on the explicit text in the PDF ("sixth-grade scholar," "Target Audience: Grade 6 Educators"), the primary target is 6th Grade . However, the material is sophisticated and rigorous enough to be highly effective for a broader range. I would recommend it for: Middle School ELA (Grades 6-8): As an alternative to traditional research papers or oral presentations. It hits standards for speaking, listening, writing, and critical analysis. Middle School Journalism or Media Studies Electives (Grades 7-9): This is a perfect foundational unit for any introductory journalism course. High School (Grades 9-10): Excellent for remedial or introductory communications, public speaking, or journalism classes. Gifted and Talented Programs (Grades 5-6): Ideal for younger, advanced learners who are ready for a challenging, project-based learning experience.

Do your pupils suffer from anxiety before exams, worry about their academic ability and feel they are going to fail? Have you seen brilliant students, who should do well on national exams such as the SATs, Advanced Placement finals or chapter tests, perform poorly due to the pressure of the exam?

In-depth and relatable case studies that provide real-life context to the theory so that you can explain to your students in a relatable manner. PART 2: The Student Workbook (10 Actionable Worksheets) A step-by-step process through which a student can begin to actively restructure their anxious thoughts. Each worksheet is intended to build on the previous worksheet to create long-lasting & profound changes.
