Time Blindness & Backward Schedule Mapping

Does your student/child frequently struggle with procrastination, missing due dates and managing their time? Does it seem that one instant they are sharp/intelligent and then the next it appears they cannot initiate a simple task? These behaviours are not caused by a lack of desire, defiance, or a personality issue. They are often a product of Time Blindness, a legitimate neurological issue in which the brain has difficulty perceiving time passing, especially for adolescents and students with ADHD, autism and other executive function issues. Time Blindness & Backward Schedule Mapping: A Cognitive Intervention Guide is a complete evidence-based, 40-page curriculum designed to give students the expertise required to dominate their time, alleviate anxiety, and recover their academic self-confidence. This product is more than a planner; it is a system that redefines the student’s perception of time. Through the revolutionary technique of Backward Schedule Mapping (BSM), Time Blindness provides a means of making time a definable, visually perceptible, and manageable resource rather than an abstract and anxiety-producing adversarial force. The resource is a comprehensive toolkit that spans three phases made for school personnel, family members, and people who coach children on improving executive functions. PHASE 1: CORE PARTS AND THEORIES OF INDEPENDENTLY FUNCTIONING FOR YOUR STUDENT OR CHILD. The neuroscience of "time blindness" - why does this happen to adolescents? Explains how adolescent brains are wired, how dopamine impacts the brain, and why regular planning does not work for this age group (or any). The anatomy of backward schedule mapping - explains what backward schedule mapping is and goes through the 4-phase process, including anchor points, sub-task deconstruction, and the "Pessimism Multiplier." How to use backward mapping in real-life examples or case studies (i.e., 7th-grade terrarium project, 9th-grade morning routine, and 10th-grade perfectionist's study schedule). PHASE 2: FILLABLE WORKBOOK FOR THE STUDENT (10 Physical Worksheets to Use with Your Student or Child). Students will go from the theory of backward mapping to the practical application of backward mapping by completing worksheets for each of the following: Time Perception Audit; Calibration of Estimations; Deconstructing Deadlines; Identifying "Time Thieves"; Engineering Buffer Zones; and Backward Mapping for Daily Routines, Extracurricular Activities, and Long-Term Projects. Finally, students will take what was learned in each of the previous worksheets and will develop a plan for contingency planning and how to self-advocate when things do not go as planned in their lives. Section 3: Resources and Change Agents for Teachers Visual Frameworks for Teachers: 3 powerful visuals to utilize as cognitive anchorage for: The Temporal Distortion Cycle, Backward Schedule Mapping Protocol, and Temporal Horizon Discrepancy Comprehensive Answer Key: Detailed answers and pedagogical insights to aid in instruction and locate specific areas of difficulty for a student Teacher Implementation Guide: Step-by-step guide with facilitation scripts, differentiation strategies for students who may feel overloaded and practical tools for success (e.g. Sticky Note Timelines) Define: Who Is This For? - Middle & High School Students (Grades 6-10+) - Students With ADHD, Autism, and/or Executive Function Challenges - Chronic Procrastinators & Perfectionists - Special Education Teachers, School Counselors, and Psychologists - Coaches, Tutors, and Parents Who Homeschool Their Own Child, and any Parent Who Wants to Empower Their Child With Lifelong Skills End the cycle of late-night panic and academic shame - Transform Your Students From Passive Spectators to Active Creators of Their Own Success by Downloading This Entire Product and Building a New Way to Achieve Successful Outcomes Today! Search Terms: Executive Functioning Skills, Time Management Resources for Teens, ADHD Strategies, Study Skills, Backward Planning, Procrastination, Middle School, High School, Special Education, Neurodivergent, Student Workbooks, Teacher Guides, Social-Emotional Learning (SEL), Time Blindness. What Makes Parents & Schools Like It: Promotes Empathy - Decreases Conflict: "Laziness" is redefined by the lens of brain-based neuroscience (due to "Time Blindness") which provides educators and parents a fresh and compassionate perspective while alleviating the amount of friction they may have with students. Practical Application - Concrete Tools - This is not a theoretical-based item, but rather provides students with a step-by-step and hands-on plan they could implement immediately using the 10 worksheets included in the student workbook, for both academic and personal tasks. Authentic Independence - Rather than managing schedules, the curriculum will teach students how to use metacognitive skills to manage their own time - a critical life skill necessary for high school, college and adulthood! Cognitive Science Based - Through the use of brain-based neuroscience and psychology concepts (i.e., temporal discounting, planning fallacy), the curriculum has an established track record and the strategies provided are designed to work as how your adolescent brain functions. Simple to Implement - With a complete answer key, visual supports, and a comprehensive Teacher Implementation Guide (including differentiation strategies/implementation scripts), educators will have the tools they need to successfully implement the curriculum with confidence and effectiveness. Audience Target Analysis: From my short description above on the Audience of this document, as well as from the content itself, your primary target audience is as follows: Students in Grade 6 through Grade 10. Contained within this graphic is the window of time where the academic scaffolding has been removed and executive functions begin to be called on by students.

Anxiety Management & Stress-Relief Breathing Exercise Worksheets
STEM, Special Resources, Life Skills, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Social Skills, Special Education Needs (SEN), Speech Therapy, Science, Life Sciences, Human Body, Homeschool Curriculum, Homeschool Templates, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Worksheets, Workbooks, Word Searches, Teacher Tools, Lesson Plans, Quizzes and Tests, Quizzes, Tests
This complete resource for anxiety management & stress relief using breathing exercise worksheets includes everything needed for middle school students. It is designed to be both printable (digital/electronic) and neuroscience-based and consists of 41 pages of student worksheets, real-world case studies, fill in the blank knowledge checks and numerous practical breathing protocols (Box Breathing, 4-7-8 Breath, Resonant Breathing, Physiological Sigh, Extended Exhale, Alternate Nostril Breathing and 5-4-3-2-1 Sensory Grounding) along with teacher answer keys, conceptual visuals and a full trauma informed implementation guide. This curriculum teaches students in 6th, 7th and 8th grades to interrupt amygdala hijacks, switch from the sympathetic "fight, flight or freeze" to the parasympathetic "rest and digest" and develop lifelong emotional resilience through the science of somatic agency, vagus nerve stimulation, neuroplasticity and autonomic nervous system regulation. This PDF product is perfect for school counseling, advisory periods, special education and homeschool implementation. There is no prep work necessary for immediate implementation in the classroom or at home. Keywords: anxiety worksheets for middle school students, breathing exercises for relieving stress for teens, anxiety management neuroscience based printable, somatic breathing toolkit, middle school social emotional learning curriculum, tools for testing anxiety, breathing activities for social anxiety. Parents & Teachers Love This Program Because: Science Supported but Student Friendly: This program teaches students the real science (amygdala, vagus nerve, heartbeat, myelination) behind their feelings in a way that helps them stop blaming themselves for the way they feel and begins to help them take charge of who they are by understanding how their body works. No Prep, Ready to Use: The program comes with student worksheets/answer keys, teacher projectables/visuals, and teacher implementation guides (these guides include trauma informed scripts) for busy community counselors, social-emotional teachers, and parents to use to implement this program with ease. The Efficacy of the Program has been Proven over and over Again Through the Use of the Program Addresses Multiple Anxiety Triggers (such as academic tests, social/cafeterias, digital overstimulation, athletic performance, and sleep difficulties) in multiple ways along with the use of protocols which work in real-world education settings. Creates Resilience Long-term: This program teaches daily habits and neuroplasticity, enabling the student to not only survive through anxiety attacks but also rewire their brain to have a calmer baseline state. An Inclusive and Trauma Informed Program: The program includes opt-out options, soft gazing instead of closing your eyes (making it safe for all students), and addresses the awkwardness associated with these activities, therefore making it safe and respectful for all students! Designation of Eligible Student Group (Overall Analysis of Document): The full curriculum covers the department for the 6th-8th grades (a.k.a. middle school or early adolescent age ~ 11-14). All research studies used in the curriculum have both 7th and 8th graders; the neurobiology part discusses the “development mismatch” between an adolescent’s limbic system and their prefrontal cortex; and every worksheet is designed for the life of a middle school student (i.e. school-themed exams, cafeteria social anxiety, hallway anxiety, sports pressure, digital anxiety). Therefore, the program is inappropriate for elementary students (too advanced) or high school students (language and examples are appropriate for the maturity level of students in grades 6-8).

Are you ready to go further than just a simple "piggy" bank lesson and actually give your students the skills they need for the real world? This complete, integrated Money Management Unit is filled with lots of tools to develop your students into well-rounded, professional "Young Scholars" by learning how to use the basic concepts of applied microeconomics in creative ways that meet the unique developmental abilities of both upper elementary and middle school students. The Money Management Unit is not a pack of worksheets; it is a full set of easy-preparation teaching materials that will help you develop a lasting understanding of financial literacy within your students. By using a structured, three-phase approach, this resource will help students gain a better understanding of the more complicated topics related to making good choices when it comes to spending or saving money through the use of opportunity cost; and will give them all the tools they need to manage the way they spend or save their money, from using an allowance to saving up for something they want to buy (zero‐based budget). WHAT'S AVAILABLE IN THIS SET OF 33 PAGES OF MATERIAL: PHASE 1: The Textbook: Applied Microeconomics for Young Scholars: A comprehensive but user-friendly resource for learning about many topics related to economics. The textbook covers the following topics: Income and Outflow: What is an allowance? What is entrepreneurship (using the example of a lemonade stand)? What's the difference between Needs and Wants? Budgeting Strategies: How do you use a "Zero-Based Budget" and the Spend, Save, and Share Approach? The Psychology of Saving: Delayed gratification, SMART goal setting, and the math of compound interest. The Economics of Choice: Understanding opportunity cost and consumer traps (e.g., Gamified Value in in-app purchases). PHASE 2: Student Workbook (10 Rigorous Worksheets): Worksheets which reinforce the concepts presented in the Textbook. Students are provided an opportunity to practice through hands-on activities in the areas of: Analyzing Revenue and Expenditures Making Decisions about Needs versus Wants Creating and Balancing a Ledger Calculating Savings Goals and Timelines Evaluating Opportunity Cost Recording Daily Transactions Understanding Emergency Funds and Unit Pricing Final Project: Create a Budget from Scratch! Phase 3: Teacher Resources (Visual Aids & Answer Key) 3 Visual Aids That Are Clear & Easy To Use! Perfect on a smart board or printed poster style (or printed out as handouts), these three docs provide simple visuals of how to create a budget, set goals and make impulse purchases so that students can see their financial decisions. An Answer Key Containing All Calculations & Rationale Is Ready For Use! A full key has been created for each of the ten worksheets so grading each student work will be easy. These two items can be used by any classroom and a great teaching resource to provide math centres, economics unit, life skills classes or by parents who want to give their child an early advantage through financial literacy. Why do Parents/Schools love: - The unit not only gives students the mechanics of counting money but explores how to think about money by teaching about core economic principles (opportunity cost, behavioral economics). - The entire unit is in one PDF file and provides a full resource package (textbook, 10 worksheets, various visual aids and full answer key). All materials are ready to print and teach - no planning time is wasted! - Students will have exposure to real-world experiences that will help them to connect abstract concepts to their everyday life through relatable case studies and scenarios such as saving for sneakers, managing their allowance & avoiding getting trapped in the arcade. - The psychology behind financial decisions is addressed and students are provided with tools for delayed gratification, goal setting (S.M.A.R.T.) and impulse control which will serve them throughout their lives. - The unit provides a wide range of options that can be tailored for any type of student. The rigor of the lesson is appropriate for gifted programs while the clear structure and answer key provides a high level of support for whole-group lessons or independent learning. Target Market (Student Classes): Based on the content's terminology ("applied microeconomics", "cognitive architecture") and concepts addressed, the following target audiences should be: Primary Target Market: Students in 5th and 6th Grade. The material is abstract in nature and at the appropriate developmental stage of maturation for these grades, as addressed in the Introductory Section provided in the PDF. Secondary Target Market: Gifted students in 4th Grade who are capable of handling advanced concepts and vocabulary. The material will provide them with a challenge while stimulating their interest. Tertiary Target Market: Students in 7th and 8th Grade that have never received an introduction to or have already been remediated in Financial Literacy concepts. The unit provides excellent foundational material for students enrolled in Life Skills and/or Economics courses.

The Bill of Rights Unit (and a Little About Amendments 11-27)
Social Studies, Government, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools
The purpose of this 49-page mini-unit is for students in grades 6-12 to develop a clear understanding of what their rights are under the Constitution, particularly our rights under the Bill of Rights. Increasingly, Americans, especially students, are not able to name many of the rights we are entitled to in the Bill of Rights. They are well aware of Amendment 2 and parts of Amendment 1, and the “I plead the fifth” clause of Amendment 5, but they are woefully uninformed of the other rights that protect us. This mini-unit is designed to give students not only a complete understanding of these rights but opportunities to put their knowledge into practice through the various worksheets and a culminating project at the end of the unit, which is available separately in my store,, “A Great Good Place for Teachers,” called The Bill of Rights: A Project to Assess Knowledge and Understanding. The ultimate goal is for them to have a healthy and complete understanding of why these basic rights are so necessary for our democracy. This mini-unit is part of my unit: “Our Living Consitution” which is designed using the Into, Through, and Beyond model of lesson planning. The lessons in the Our Living Constitution unit can be used independently or as a supplement to what you already teach or as a whole. Here is a summary of what is in the unit.
