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).

Change the nature of instruction for fractions, and help all students by using this complete, evidence-based guide for teaching fractions to students who may have any or all of the following: Dyscalculia, Learning Disabilities in Mathematics, or Anxiety with regard to mathematics. Are you an educator or parent looking for an effective way to teach your students with prior difficulties with abstract mathematic concepts? If so, this is the resource for which you have been searching. This is NOT just another worksheet packet. This is a complete neuro-informed intervention system built to circumvent all cognitive barriers common to the students you teach, and create true and lasting understanding of fractions that will be retained for the remainder of the student's educational career. By following the Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract (CPA) framework along with the principles of cognitive science, this guide provides students with a means for teaching fractions in a way that they will finally be able to process and master from their neurodivergent brain perspective. Your students will no longer suffer from mathematics anxiety or the "Whole Number Bias", which results in students believing that 1/8 is greater than 1/3. We use Linear Fraction Bars as a visual aid and High Contrast Visual Mapping to make fractions tangible and explainable to students through the use of their neural systems, thus enabling students to understand fractions as Predictable and Intuitive. We deliberately avoid all of the Circular Fraction Models (i.e., Pizza) that confuse students with poor or absent spatial perception. THIS 37-PAGE COMPREHENSIVE GUIDELINE CONSISTS OF: The Educators Guide: This document consists of an in-depth look at the "why" behind the method in phase one. It will include definitions of the cognitive make-up behind dyscalculia, the incorrectness of standard methods, and the architectural guidelines for creating educational tools, including manipulatives that are compatible with how the brain works. This phase will also include case studies based on individual students that can be utilized in grade-level math classes. The Student Workbook: Phase Two will consist of a sequential ten part set of worksheets that will serve as step-by-step guides for students in grades three through five. In other words, the first page of the ten page guide will help students learn what a numerator and a denominator are before they then will be a part of the worksheet on determining whether two fractions are equal or comparable. The remainder of the pages will continue to follow the same sequence, with the last page covering mixed numbers. The Teacher Resources and Visual Aids Section: This section contains all the resources necessary for teacher's to correctly implement the above two guides. In addition to possessing high-resolution diagnostic diagrams that can be utilized in the classroom, this section also contains an answer key that has been developed with pedagogical notes included, and a clinical implementation guide that contains scripted interventions for how to address common errors made by students. PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING Group: Individuals who provide direct instructional support to students with disabilities and other struggles in mathematics, such as: SE Teachers/Specialists Math Interventionists/ Specialists (Tier 2 & 3) Resource Room/Co-Teach Models Tutor and Educational Therapists Homeschool Parents General Ed Teachers who want to use effective differentiation strategies. Break the cycle of poor math performance. Get your students the tools they need to develop confidence and obtain true mastery of fractions through this master guide through the Math Anxiety. Key Terms: Dyscalculia, Math Intervention, Special Education Math, Fractions, Visual Math, Manipulatives, Math Anxiety, Learning Disabilities, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Grade, Homeschooling, RTI, Math Support, Number Sense, *CPA Framework (Concrete, Picture, Abstract) Teacher’s Guide. Reasons Why Parents/Schools Are Enthusiastic About This Resource: Evidence Based and Neuro-informed: This is truly not just a collection of activities but rather a structured program based on cognitive science; designed specifically to help students whom have dyscalculia. Eliminates Math Anxiety: The clear, visual, step-by-step approach removes uncertainty and abstract confusion which builds student confidence and creates a positive attitude ("I can do math") about math. Comprehensive All-In-One System: The complete package allows educators to save a tremendous amount of time in planning. It contains the theoretical document, the workbook (student-facing) as well as the full answer key that contains additional clinical cues. This resource is ready for immediate use as an intervention resource. Promotes True Understanding, Not Just Rote Memorization: By making fractions physical and visual, this program goes beyond mere memorization of rules and fosters true, deep conceptual understanding, which can be applied to future concepts. Highly Targeted for Intervention: This resource is an excellent Tier 2/3 resource for intervention, special education resource rooms, tutoring, and homeschooling. It provides very powerful and focused support, right where struggling learners require it most. An in-depth analysis of the content, research, and worksheets indicates the primary target audiences are: Special Education Teachers: This is a critical instructional support for teachers within this specialty since the resource was designed specifically for students diagnosed with learning disabilities. Math Interventionists: This resource meets the needs of small groups of students (Tier 2 and Tier 3) who are considerably below grade level in mathematics. Educational Therapists and Tutors: Qualified professionals who provide one-on-one support to students with dyscalculia. Homeschooling Parents: Especially for those children who have a diagnosis or possibly math deficits. Targeted Grade Levels: The component will specifically target grades three, four and five because all of the fractions address fundamental fractions through to adding fractions and mixed numbers, which are all taught at these grade levels.

Uncover the amazing world of Artificial Intelligence with AI for Kids by Syed Hammad Rizvi – the best easy to read and conceptual book about what AI is for kids! This 315 page long book has no coding requirement; instead, it presents many complicated ideas such as; machine learning, algorithms, deep learning, data patterns, ethical AI & bias, quantum computing, autonomous vehicles, robotics, and The Future of AI (including the singularity and AGI) in an interesting and fun way by using many familiar analogies that can be easily understood (i.e. Lego sorting, riding a bike, master cooks). AI for Kids is perfect for kids who want to learn how Siri, Netflix recommendations, facial recognition, and ChatGPT actually work without any programming or technical knowledge! There are 151 short chapters filled with real-life examples appropriate for children, and the information in these chapters empowers children. The book can be used as a tool to create interest in STEM subjects, or as an educational resource to be used at home, school, in after-school STEM clubs, or at night before bed to build AI literacy and inspire future generations of innovators, ethicists, and thinkers! Keywords: AI, kids, artificial intelligence, machine learning simply explained, neural networks beginners, ethical AI & the future of AI, no coding AI, STEM children 8-14. Here's what Parents & Schools find appealing about this Read: - No technical overwhelm – just follow AI concepts with relatable analogies to make it easy to understand & fun for kids. - Covers every aspect of AI within 151 bite-sized chapters (history, how AI learns, applications in health care, gaming & robotics, ethics, bias, jobs of the future) – this one book replaces the need for many resources. - Build early critical thinking skills and digital citizenship skills by getting children thinking critically about AI choices, identifying biased information, and preparing children for careers related to AI. - Very versatile for classroom/homeschooling use – short chapters, discussion prompts, & real-life examples are well-suited to be used as part of lessons/projects or for independent reading. - Future-proof & aspirational – encourages children to believe they can influence AI positively, while dreaming of careers such as “AI Ethicist" or "Human-AI Team Coordinator." Target Audience (Based on Complete Analysis of Book): The title and content are explicitly created for kids, with simple formats (analogies, short chapters), questions and real-life examples being used throughout all 151 chapters (from basics at Chapter 1 to complex concepts such as singularity, quantum AI, bias, ethics and future impact in the other chapters). The content continually uses easy-to-understand language to help engage kids, even through some of the most trying sections (example of AGI: like a true thinker who could write novels and create music; bias, using the analogy of a warped photograph; and food science using the analogy of a digital chef). While the book does not provide any required ages/grades, the depth of material (differentiating between narrow/general AI, explaining XAI, discussing the predictive policing debate, interdisciplinary teams, and impact on society) and no requirement of coding make it appropriate for children age 8-14 (grades 3-8 / upper elementary and middle school). Younger children (grades 3-5) will enjoy the fun stories and introduction of subject matter, while older children (grades 6-8) will understand the ethical aspects of these technologies and their potential future career opportunities as well as understand how these technologies apply to the real world and benefit society through further learning. This book would be a good resource for homeschoolers, teachers, gifted programs and any student who has an interest in technology. It will be too basic for high school students but will provide a solid foundation and valuable supplemental material.

Culture Lesson: Cultural Norms and Avoiding Stereotypes Worksheets
Social Studies, Psychology, Life Studies, Grade 5, 6, 7, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Activities, Experiments, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools
Do you want your students in grades 5-7 to learn how to become global citizens who can respect a variety of cultural norms and comprehend cross-cultural differences? Are you looking for a fun way to bring all of these ideas to life? Check out this ready-to-go lesson for your class. This 5-Page PDF is ready to print for your social studies classroom. It includes clear teacher instructions for a fun class simulation where half of your students will act out a new "class norm" (five options are provided such as not raising your hand to ask a question) that the other half of your class won't be expecting. While the simulation is happening, everyone will be working on a three page reading comprehension task. Students will read about cultural norms from around the world (slurping noodles when eating in Japan or nodding one's head to say "no" in Bulgaria). They will imagine how not knowing about the cultural norms in a place where they are travelling could lead to accidental misunderstandings. Students are also taught a simple definition of the concept of stereotypes, and they will think of how they are different from cultural norms. Finally, there is a 1-page reflection with prompts- perfect for after a class discussion. Teacher Instructions: 1. Split your class in two and talk to only one half. 2. Tell them that they will have a new “class cultural norm.” Pick one from the provided ideas. 3. When the whole class is reunited, pass out the reading page & worksheets. Students read about cultural norms and answer the questions. 4. As they work, the selected half will enact their new norm, which will confuse the other half of the class. 5. Once the point has been made, let the other half in on the secret. 6. Have a discussion about cultural norms and give students time to write a reflection about this lesson.
