This program can take the chaos of group projects and create effective teamwork, as it teaches students how to manage conflict, delegate and hold each other accountable, thereby decreasing frustration for both students and their teachers. Students will learn to develop critical thinking and resilience through in-depth analysis of complicated situations through case studies, and by analysing barriers to success, they learn to anticipate future barriers, and the learning experiences enhance their ability to develop and implement strategic plans. This program contains a complete, ready-to-use unit with all elements for no prep for teaching educators — including detailed theories, worksheets, visual resources and comprehensive teacher guides to support educators in teaching these essential skills with confidence. Target Classes of Attendees (Students): The target audience for the worksheets can be classified as follows: 1. Primary Target: High School Students (Grades 10-12). The worksheets contain advanced vocabulary and concepts presented in detailed scenarios appropriate for Grade 10-12 students who are preparing for or currently enrolled in AP, IB, Honors, or Gifted/Talented programs. The content, therefore, would be too complex for younger students (Grades 9 and below) or students in Special Education; whereas, the content is sufficiently challenging for 8+, 12+ grade-level of students but the activities/situations are not directly related to those students. 2. Secondary Target: First-Year College/University Students. The worksheets could be used as supplemental materials for freshman seminar courses, introductory business/engineering courses, and any program that emphasizes group projects. 3. Niche Target: Teacher Professional Development. The frameworks included in this document are designed specifically for teachers who want to improve their own collaborative working practices with their own departments or other collaborative groups via Professional Learning Communities (PLC).

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.

Has tipping been increasing recently ("tip-flation")?

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 Parents/Schools Appreciate Most About It: More Than Just Study Materials: This is not your standard guide of food pyramid style based information that provides answers to "why" food is important rather than just teaching them about "what" food is by incorporating real biochemically based research that gives students leadership skills through critical thinking about applying appropriate nutrients in their daily diets. No Need To Create New Lessons: It is a comprehensive, ready-to-teach resource that contains all the lessons needed for instructing students, including student learning materials (worksheets), student-directed interactive media, and an answer key for each lesson; which allows teachers to reduce their lesson planning and preparation time by several hours. Teaching Students Skills For Today And Tomorrow: Students will acquire real-world skills that they can apply throughout their lives, including, reading confusing food labels and budgeting for groceries, as well as creating meal plans based upon their own individual physical demands and/or mental needs (i.e., studying for exams, participating in sports). Based On Research And Up-to-date Information: The curriculum provides students with current scientifically valid information by disproving current myths and focusing on scientifically verified, up-to-date information (e.g., nutrient density, the body's hormonal response to food, and the importance of the body's microbiome). Audience For This Poster: From examining the content, language, and references in the text (i.e. two references to "grade 8 students," two references to "9th grade students," and teacher reference to "middle years (grades 7-9)"), I am using the following criteria to define my audience? Primary Target: Advanced Middle School Students (Grades 7-8) and regular High School Students (Grades 9-10) Justification: The vocabulary is appropriate for students of this age and demonstrates a high level of abstract thinking (i.e. biochemistry, paradigm shifts, phospholipid bilayers, anaphylaxis). This will serve as an excellent core unit for a Health or Biology class in high school or as a challenging, extensive science unit for an advanced middle school science class.

It provides a very powerful evidence-based structure for turning executive function challenges into work-related credentials. Includes: •Phase 1-Curriculum Theory Basics (Hidden Curriculum, Cognitive Load, Sensory Schema, and Ambiguity Traps) • Phase 2-Student Workbook & 10 Worksheets (Task Initiation, Working Memory, Cognitive Flexibility, Emotional Regulation, Time Blur, Sustained Attention, Organisation, Long Term Goals, Self-Monitoring, and Self-Advocacy) • Phase 3-Visual Structures, Flow Charts, Cognitive Load to Environmental Friction Mapping plus Teacher Implementation guide with complete Notion integration.

Reasons Parents & Educators Appreciate It: • Transforms labels of “unmotivated” or “distracted” students into real, visible, employer-ready micro-credentials that significantly increase retention rate after employment (example: retention rates went from 60% to 88% in a single year). • Comes with teacher keys; student worksheets; and pre-made templates to make implementation take only minutes instead of months (no longer create resources from scratch). • Uses affirming language that respects students' neurodiversity; allows schools to have an established, professional portfolio to provide to employers and IEP teams. • Uses a hybrid model of digital and printable content - all learning styles and budgets are accommodated; schools love the built-in assessment rubrics and portfolio defense scripts. • Quickly bridges the gap between school and the workplace; parents know that real-world skills (i.e. self-advocacy script; sensory anchors; Plan B matrix) will continue to be used even after high school graduation. Target Student Populations (Identification by PDF Analyses): These curricula were specifically designed for neurodivergent youth between 14 to 22 years of age (IDEA transition services) and are intended to be used in the following educational settings: • Special Education/Inclusion Classrooms, Grades 9-12 • Post-Secondary Transition Vocational Rehabilitation, 18 to 22 • Autism Spectrum Disorder Support and Transition Programming • ADHD/Executive Dysfunction focused Life Skills/Work-Study Programming • Community Based Adult Transition Programs, ages 18 to 22 Not for elementary/middle school; does NOT include general education environments without a neurodivergent focus.
