Life Skills, Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Social Skills, Special Education Needs (SEN), Speech Therapy, STEM, Resources for Teachers, Classroom Management, Community Building, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Worksheets & Printables, Workbooks, Worksheets, Word Searches, Teacher Tools, Assessments, Lesson Plans, Presentations, Quizzes and Tests, Tests
A complete 40-page workbook to promote the use of mindfulness and learn how to manage exam stress using neuroscience-based methods. This workbook includes clear theoretical concepts (e.g., "Amygdala Hijacking", "Working Memory Bottleneck", "Default Mode Network versus Task Positive Network") paired with a total of 10 student worksheets, 3 visually appealing colored models for use throughout the course, an answer key that shows all answers for the worksheets and a teacher guide to implementation. In addition to theory, there are practical tools to help the student manage their stress level and perform well on assessments. Practical tools include: Cognitive Defusion (to eliminate the "failure script" you tell yourself), using Somatic Mapping and micro-interventions (e.g., Physiological Sigh, 5-4-3-2-1 Grounding, Box Breathing), using the POP (Pause, Observe, Proceed) method to eliminate "blanks" on assessments, utilizing pre-test mental rehearsal and post-test decompression exercises. This workbook is perfect for use in the classroom, individual counseling sessions, study skills programs, or home schooling. It is available for immediate digital download, and can be printed from your computer or used in your digital course materials with no preparation needed. These strategies have been researched and proven to effectively lower levels of test anxiety and provide access to your working memory when under pressure to perform. Reasons Parents and Schools Love this Product: Science-based methods that help students calm themselves when they take exams through teaching them how to control their brains instead of just telling them to calm themselves down. No preparation required on the part of teachers with regard to having materials like worksheets, visuals, answer keys, and an implementation guide to use immediately in their classrooms or with students who need support. Helps develop true resilience by teaching students ways to cope with anxiety over a lifetime rather than relying on temporary motivation techniques. All micro-interventions available through this product can be done without being seen or heard, therefore making it more conducive to use during exam time. Very easy for both parents and counselors to understand how to use the micro-interventions in a way that they will get maximum benefit from doing so; great for SEL programs, study skills classes, or using at home. Intended Readers : The target audience for this resource is students who belong to the ages of 12-16 (Grades 7-10). The research case studies were conducted with 7th grade (ADHD/test anxiety), 8th grade, 9th grade and 10th grade (AP Biology) students. The resource sections of the Teacher Implementation Guide focus on the students themselves as they relate to their neurodevelopmental stage (middle and early high school). This resource is perfect for middle school (Grades 7-8) and early high school (Grades 9-10) students, who are preparing for any number of major exams, standardized exams and high stakes assessments (i.e., any subject). Not intended for elementary students (too difficult) or late high school/college students (the language and examples were written specifically for the adolescent population).

It was determined that the primary target audience for the content and example case studies of students and adults was high school students ages 14-18 in grades 9-12. Case studies utilized for reference were from students in their 10th and 11th grade year, included high school scenarios such as expected academic performance (i.e., transcripts) to identify which extra curricular activities students would participate in, such as: extracurricular activities (e.g., debate club, robotics); and student worksheets will have students reflect on their interests (e.g., interest in space exploration or environmental projects) and what path they would pursue through a community college or university. This resource is perfect for career education classes, guidance counseling sessions, or homeschooling activities related to getting ready for the job market after high school and the impact on their jobs in an unstable economy. The secondary audience of the content and the example case studies was all post-high school students ages 12+ including: young adults transitioning to a 4-year college, first-year college freshmen, and working adults looking to upskill/re-skill. Additionally; case studies of older adults (past PhD graduates and adults in their late 20s seeking to transition from administrative positions to logistics in the bio-tech industry) demonstrate that the resource promotes lifelong learning, investigation, and adapting to shifting technologies (e.g., AI and quantum computing).Some target classes could be the introductory college career development course; vocational training program; and adult learning/education workshops about Artificial Intelligence Ethics and skill bridging. With an emphasis on marketing to high school career preparation classes, but also demonstrate the versatility of the program to appeal to transitional learners in larger markets.

Turn your classroom into an environmental science lab with the help of this awesome 41-page Zero Waste Lifestyle Tracking and Habit Builder Journal! This is a project-based learning resource for grades 4–8 that is aligned to the standards! Looking for a real world environmentally focused way to teach environmental science to your students that isn't just a bunch of recycling posters? A complete curriculum journal combining current neuroscience research, ecology theory and hands-on data collection will give your students everything they need to consider themselves true environmental scientists - and it begins with measuring their own lives! This resource is not just one big stack of worksheets but rather, it is a fully scaffolded 3-phase academic journal developed with university seminar style rigor and middle school classroom style accessibility. Your students won’t just learn about the environment; they’ll measure it, analyze it and make changes to it! CONTENTS (41 Pages, Print & Digital Ready): Phase 1 — Core Content & Theory (4 chapters): 1. The Anatomy of Waste explains what happens throughout the lifespan of waste items, including Lifecycle Assessment (LCA), the impact of microplastics in our world today, which items go in the landfill, which items can be incinerated, and how long it takes for a plastic fork to travel 450 years into our future 2. The Neuroscience of Habit Building discusses how our brains form habits based on the basal ganglia of the brain, how we can rebuild/rewire our habits scientifically through neuroplasticity, and the three parts of the habit loop (cue-routine-reward) 3. The Zero-Waste Hierarchy introduces the four elements of a zero-waste lifestyle: Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Rot (Composting) and Recycle. This chapter includes a real-world example of how one school significantly reduced their waste by over 90% using these four proven methods 4. Data-Driven Stewardship teaches your students to think like a marine biologist and meteorologist by showing them how to track and analyze their own local environmental data. After each chapter is a fill-in-the-blank review of the chapter, called the Scholar's Review. Phase 2: 10Worksheet Workbook for Students (Research Lab Style) Personal Waste Audit 24-Hour (Data Collection Protocols: Empirical) Material Lifecycle Analysis of Material (From Raw Extraction To Disposal) Biochemistry of Composting (Green And Brown Materials, Aerobic And Anaerobic Decomposition) Single Use Plastic Substitution Matrix (Cost/Benefit Analysis) Water and Energy Footprint Calculation (Embedded Energy And Water Load Calculation; Shower Each Year; Cost Of Water To Make Cotton Shirt) Redesign Challenge For Circular Economy (Planned Volatility, Upcycling, Extended Producer Responsibility) Food Waste Economics (FIFO Pantry System, Estimate Of $780 Of Food Waste Per Year, What Is A Food Standard For A Non-Food Waste Item?) Fast Fashion Footprint (Cost To Wear, Use Of Micro-Plastics, Philosophy Of Wardrobe) Supermarket Packaging Detective (Identifying Greenwashing, Multi-Layered Packages, Bulk Purchasing) Zero-Waste Habit Builder (Keystone Priming, 30-Day Tracking Plan, Write Manifesto For A Zero Waste Life) PHASE 3—Teacher Resources and Visuals: Three professionally designed SVG diagrams (Zero Waste Hierarchy, Linear vs. Circular Economy, Sustainability Habit Loop) Complete Answer Key with example answers and teacher rubric notes 4 week pacing guide with weekly objectives, activities, teacher roles and homework 100-point assessments rubric across four categories of data collection, behavioural design, critical thinking and communication Five extension activities (Trash Jar Challenge, Community Waste Mapping, Letter Writing Campaign to Corporations, Do-It-Yourself Repairs Workshop, Composting Science Experiment; if possible please use a separate document per activity) Strategies for differentiating instruction for Grades 4-5, Grade 8/Gifted, IEP/504 and ELL students CONNECTING TO CURRICULUM: This journal ties into Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), Common Core English Language Arts (informational text analysis, evidence based writing) and Common Core Mathematics (percentages, projections, data analysis). This journal combines many subjects — environmental science, behavioral psychology, economics and persuasive writing — into one connected whole. USAGE IDEAS: Great as a 4-week stand-alone unit or as part of an after-school environmental club, summer enrichment program or reinforcement through integration into existing science, health or social studies curricula. Assign user digitally (fillable PDF) or in print. DIGITAL DOWNLOAD — PRINT & GO! REASONS PARENTS/SCHOOLS LOVE THE RESOURCE: Merging Science, Psychology, and Real-World Mathematics – Instead of merely reading about the environment, kids actually conduct real waste audits, calculate their water footprints, and use their own personal data to perform real-world food waste economics analysis – helping them to take abstract concepts and move towards making those concepts their own, and thus, real. Tremendous Support For Teachers From Day One – Each of the resources, including a complete 4-Week Pacing Guide, example responses in the Answer Key, a 100-point Assessment Rubric, and a variety of differentiation strategies to accommodate ALL learners (IEP/504, ELL, Gifted) provides teachers with no-prep stress! Building Lasting Habits, Not Just Raising Awareness – This journal is based on neuroscience principles, specifically the Habit Loop framework, which teaches kids HOW behavior changes within the brain — therefore they can establish long-term environmental habits to implement after the conclusion of the unit. No Eco-Anxiety – Only Eco-Empowerment – Constructivist pedagogy does not endorse guilt-based teaching practices to educate/expose students to environmental issues. Instead, students are encouraged to view themselves as environmental scientists, thereby creating a sense of worth/empowerment as opposed to being seen as passive victims of "climate doom"; hence, all resources provided in this unit have been designed with both emotional safety and motivation in mind. Cross-Curricular and Standards-Aligned Value – When you purchase this journal as a single resource, you are actually replacing multiple separate resources. This one journal covers multiple areas of study related to environmental science, data analysis, persuasive writing, behavioral psychology, economics, and systems thinking — therefore you are maximizing the instructional value and curriculum alignment of numerous subject areas! TARGET GRADES/CLASSES: On evaluating for the content type's level of complexity, the level of language used, the level of math skill needed; and how to teach the content using scaffolding: Primary Target 6th, 7th, and 8th grades (Middle School, our primary audience) Science classes; Environmental Science/ Earth Science Health and Wellness Classes Social Studies/Civics (Circular economy, EPR Policy) ELA Classes (Persuasive writing, Informational text) Secondary Target 5th Grade (Upper Elementary, with teacher scaffolded materials to be used; will require the use of Phase 3 differentiation strategies). 4th Grade (Will require major support in accordance with Phase 3 differentiation, as mentioned in Section 2) 9th Grade (High School, Environmental Science as a remedial unit or an introductory unit) Special Programs Gifted/Honors programs (Students in 8th grade, extension Activities) IEP/504 Accommodations (explicitly provide support through IEP/504) ELL Programs (provide bilingual glossary strategies) Environmental clubs (5th through 9th grade) STEM/STEAM programs Best Audience Targets: Middle School Science teachers (6th to 8th grade) Environmental Science Teachers Parents of Students 10 - 14 taking homeschool classes School Librarians purchasing Sustainability books for their library collection After School Program Coordinators Eco-Conscious Parents with Interest in Supplement Learning Your use of this Resource Agreement: Copyright (or Terms of Use) Copyright is held by Syed Hammad Rizvi.

Are abstract financial literacy lessons that simply do not engage your students giving you frustration? This immersive Curriculum of Gamified Budgeting & Cost of Living PBL makes the theory from the textbook material tangible in the experience. This is not an ordinary worksheet, but an eye-opening multi-day undertaking aimed at making students realize the real cost of living independently. By choosing a job opportunity and working with real-time data from their area, students will create a clear monthly budget. They will face the financial reality of taxes, the difficulty of searching for a reasonably-priced apartment with the help of Zillow, the complexity of finding the grocery bills as well as utility costs, and the burden of debts. This comprehensive curriculum requires no preparation in advance and allows for having great “A-ha” moments as well as develops critical thinking, resilience, and got a deep understanding of money issues. What is Included In this 42 Pages All-in-One PDF: Part 1: A Comprehensive Theory Guide (9 Pages): An exhaustive orientation for the instructors about the learning process and methods that includes ideas such as Income Illusion, Housing Heavyweights, Convenience Tax and Subscription Creep in connection with the evidence. Part 2: The Student Assignment of 10 Worksheets (20 Pages): An assignment providing an intricate guide to students concerning the following: Worksheet 1: Choosing Careers, Gross and Net Income, and Taxes Worksheet 2: Reality of Housing Market (checking local rents) Worksheet 3: Utility Costs and Connectivity (actual costs of electricity, internet, etc.) Worksheet 4: Food Spending & Eating Out (actual supermarket prices) Worksheet 5: Historical Costs of Transport (auto-loan payments and public transport) Worksheet 6: Health and Emergency Expenses Worksheet 7: Lifestyle Audit (spending for pleasures) Worksheet 8: Debt and Obligations (credits) Worksheet 9: The Monthly Report (bringing everything together) Worksheet 10: The Pivot (experiencing a financial crisis like rent increase or car problems) Part 3: Elaboration on the Instructional Tools for Educators (13 Pages): Illustrative Visuals: The educational tool gives as many graphics to make complex ideas easier. Detailed Example Answer Key: Detailed examples that illustrate the whole project using a specific example (Dental Hygienist in Austin, Texas). Five Days Implementation Guide for Teachers: Teacher's handbook. Assessment and Grading Sheet: Grading rubric made easy and comprehensible. It is vital that the Manners Project gives students crucial financial survival skills they will need later in their lives. Why Parents/Schools Think It's a Wonderful Idea: Practical Applications: The curriculum is based on local and current real data (like Zillow) that is tapped to teach budgeting, causing students to learn it in a practical way that has great relevance to their own local community. Engaging & Game-based: The curriculum is very engaging as learning is approached in a project approach (it is gamified, as students are allowed to choose a profession and deal with financial surprises) that gets students interested and involved in the learning process. Builds Useful Skills: This curriculum allows students to work in tough situations when they have to make decisions about money. Target Audience Choice: Due to the complexity of its content, its emphasis on independent living and its application of mathematical concepts, we recommend: High school students (10th-12th grade): This is probably the best audience, especially for juniors and seniors who are studying economics, personal finance, life skills, or even in a general math course as an end project. Homeschooling cooperatives: Home school parents look for high-quality real-life themes for their teenagers. Community colleges/early-stage university students: A very suitable application for "First-Year Experience" or other student success sessions to assist the young adults with the necessary transition to life away from home.

Guided Reading Lesson Plan & Activities Grades KG-12 (13-Book Bundle)
Reading, ELA, Reading Comprehension, Kindergarten, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools, Worksheets, Worksheets & Printables
Guided Reading is a research-based instruction process whereby the teacher works with small grouping of students being equal in a particular reading achievement level. The teacher provides for each reader's development of effective reading competencies. However different than in the earlier days of reading groups, small and temporary groups are flexible and dynamic. The observance and evaluation of the progress of readers are done by teachers on a systematic basis. Thus, grouping and regrouping students is based on the strengths of students and the intense changing needs throughout their reading development. In the 1960s in New Zealand, Guided Reading was developed. It was enhanced over the years after it arrived in the United States thanks to educators like Gay Su Pinnell and Lesley Fountas. In 1996, Fountas & Pinnell published their enormously influential book, Guided Reading: Good First Teaching for All Children (Heinemann). This book changed how reading was taught, and it is still taught today to over a million teachers worldwide. The aim of Guided Reading lessons is to develop effective readers. A set of 13 books is bundled together with all 13 worksheets of the Guided Reading series for grades KG-12. There are lesson plans and different activities for every grade, with the answers in the end section of the worksheet.

Life Studies, Home Economics, Special Resources, Life Skills, Math, Multiplication, Multiplication and Division, Percentages, Money, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Teacher Tools, Lesson Plans
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
