There are Many Reasons Why Schools/Parents Enjoy Using This Innovation: Teaches Students to Analyze the Real World: In addition to teaching students about types of clouds, this program develops their analytical abilities through collecting and analysing data; using models for interpretation; and understanding the inter-relationships between the factors that cause changes within the Earth system. Ready to Use and Saves Time: The entire unit takes two weeks to complete and is complete with a teacher’s resource guide, a pacing schedule and an answer key. This makes preparing for instruction very easy. Connects Science with Human Influence: The case studies from amazing weather events (the Joplin tornado, the Galveston hurricane) provide relevance to this type of science and illustrate how vital it is to be able to predict weather (saving lives). Allows for Differentiation for All Students: The lesson plans in the teacher resource guide have been designed with differentiated strategies to enable every child to be successful (both developing learners and advanced learners). Professionally Designed Visuals that are Easy to Understand: Each lesson in this unit is supported by visually appealing drawings and charts (professional looking) that will help make concepts such as pressure gradients and forecasting workflows tangible and concrete for all students. Student Class Targeting : Identify students based on evidence from the teacher guide or complexity of material: 1) Primary Target Group: 7th and 8th Grade Middle Schoolers taking Earth or Integrated Sciences courses. This material is high-level material and meets the systemic thinking capacity of these high schoolers. 2) Secondary Target Group: 9th and 10th Grade High School students taking introductory Earth or Environmental Science classes.

Instead of offering vague advice about “positive thinking,” give your students real tools to solve their issues with frustration, decision paralysis, and negative self-talk! The 36-page, neuro-developmental curriculum, “Growth Vs. Fixed Mindset Reframing: Action-Oriented Problem-Solving,” is specifically designed for 2nd through 5th graders, at a time when many kids experience the hurdles outlined above. This resource doesn't simply tell children to "keep trying"; it gives them the skills to understand how their cognitive reframing systems work so they can start to use them.

Concrete Coping Skills that Kids Will Use: The coping strategies contained in the book include how to use deep breathing techniques, create a 'Worry Jar', create a 'Safe Zone', and write a 'Worry Journal.'

What parents/schools enjoy most about it: Makes feelings that are hard for kids to understand into something they can relate too. For example; anxiety, as it translates into worries, and provides children with tools (Worry Zapper & Courage Cape) to cope with the emotion of anxiety. Provides children with practical strategies to cope with anxiety. For example; taking deep breaths and using positive self-talk is a great way for kids to cope instantly with anxiety rather than just talking about their feelings. Kids learn about emotional regulation through coloring; this is how they learn to cope with the impending emotion of anxiety and is never a lesson or responsibility for the child. Children gain confidence and build their resilience by learning that they have control over their thoughts, feelings, and emotions therefore giving them a sense of independence and self-efficacy.

This 43-page digital PDF contains a facilitator's guide, theory, student workbook, and teacher resources, all rolled into one. Developed with the principles of neuroscience, psychology, and the Seasonal Cyclicality Model (SCM), this social and emotional learning program for kids takes students on a series of fun, gamified, and micro-level missions aligned with Autumn (self-awareness), Winter (social observation), Spring (social skills), and Summer (responsible decision-making). This social and emotional learning program for kids, tweens, and pre-teens is perfect for parents, teachers, and counselors who want to develop the cognitive empathy, emotional intelligence, and growth mindset of middle school students. A must-have for middle school emotional intelligence development, bullying prevention, and classroom community building. Instant download. Keywords: SEL curriculum for 4th to 7th grade, empathy workbook for middle school, social and emotional learning activities, tween emotional intelligence development, neuroscience-based SEL program. Why Parents/Schools Love It: Neuroscience-Based: Fuses the power of brain science with the ease of using Micro-Missions to develop empathy as a "muscle" that grows with repetition, creating a lifelong tool for children without overwhelming them. Seasonal Format: Utilizes the power of seasonal themes and activities to eliminate social anxiety issues with a "game" approach to SEL that integrates easily into the school year or home schedule. Comprehensive Resources Included: Provides facilitator guides, student worksheets, case studies, images, and teacher keys in one convenient PDF format for quick and effective implementation with proven results such as improved conflict resolution and self-regulation.

Target Classes/Students : After a thorough analysis of the entire content presented in the PDF, from the introduction to the chapters, case studies, worksheets, and teacher resources, the content is clearly targeted at students from grade 4 through grade 7 (approximately 9-13 years old). This is consistent with the "middle years" concept presented throughout the content, which covers neurological developments such as prefrontal cortex restructuring, synaptic pruning, and the progression from Erik Erikson's Industry vs. Inferiority stage to the Identity vs. Role Confusion stage. For example, grade 4 community projects, grade 5 integrations into the classroom, grade 6 self-awareness interventions, and grade 7 conflict resolutions. The content is applicable for homeschoolers, classrooms in public/private schools, after-school programs, and counseling sessions for the target age group, with modifications for neurodiverse students with ASD or NVLD.

The Evidence-Based Working Memory & Sequential Recall Curriculum Will Help Unlock Your Students' Ultimate Learning Potential! As an Educator, Clinician, or Special Education Teacher do you have students struggling to complete multi-step directions, reading comprehension or complex math problems? Do you see them grasp a concept at one moment, and then lose it the next? More than likely, the root cause of this lack of learning is not due to the student not putting forth effort, but rather, it's simply a bottleneck in their working memory. This comprehensive 41-page digital curriculum is much more than a set of worksheets - it's an evidence-based intervention program specifically developed using the science of neuroplasticity and within Alan Baddeley's highly regarded cognitive theory to target, strengthen and developed the most important part of the cognitive engine of learning, which is working memory and sequential recall - so that teachers are able to go beyond rote memorization while at the same time, enabling the student to create robust, long-lasting executive function skills. Designed to meet the needs of 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade Student as well as for support of older students who are in RTI/MTSS or Special Education, this curriculum is going to help support students bridging the gap from seeing the information to actually processing the information. HOW TO USE THIS 41-PAGE DOCUMENT This is a comprehensive 3-step program that is ready for you to implement right away: Step 1 - Core Content and Theory (A Guide for Educators) — An in-depth look at the cognitive science behind the exercises. Through clear definitions and supporting case studies, you’ll be able to accurately explain Phonological Loop, Visuospatial Sketchpad, Central Executive, and Episodic Buffer to yourself and to others so that you, as an educator, can become an expert in understanding what each of these components does. Step 2 - Student Workbook — Ten progressive, fun worksheets for students to accomplish as if they were on “missions” (i.e., Zoo Keeper’s Roster, Detective’s Missing Clue, Architect’s Blueprint, etc.). These worksheets each target unique aspects of working memory by having students perform: - Forward/Backward Sequential Recall - Procedural Recall/Recognizing Steps - Semantic Clustering/Categorizing - Dual-Task Process/Inhibiting Distractors - Pattern Recognition/Chronological Sequencing Visual Aid and Teacher Resources (Part 3): The essential support for successful teaching. Cognitive Architecture Visuals; Diagrams to support cognitive processing and visual representation of working memory. Teacher Implementation Guide; Framework for cognitive dose control of Load with 7-10 minute intervals. Differentiation; Explicitly designed order of operations enabling the use of scaffolding in strategies used for increasing to gifted levels. Comprehensive Answer Key; A tool for quick and effective evaluation of student achievement. You will be able to change your responses of, "I forgot," to, "I've got this!" once you have utilized your resources from above. Key Words: Working Memory, Executive Functions, Sequential Memory, Special Education, Speech Language Pathologist/ Speech Therapy, Response To Intervention, Multi-Tiered System Of Supports, Cognitive Skills, Following Multi-Step Directions, Reading Comprehension, Math Word Problems, Learning Disabilities, ADHD Support, 2nd Grade, 3rd Grade, 4th Grade, Digital Resource, Paper Forms, Cognitive Load. The reasons parents/schools value it: Targets Root Causes: This program helps children build the underlying cognitive skills themselves rather than just treating their symptoms (e.g., bad grades, lost assignments). These skills (working memory) allow students to do all of their academic work. Based on Scientific Evidence & No Prep Required: The exercises included in this program are not simple "busy work." They form part of a well-structured curriculum based on scientific principles of cognition. They are provided to the teacher in easy-to-print/implement formats, thus allowing the teachers to save preparation time. Differentiation Built-In: The teacher's guide includes specific strategies for the teacher to assist struggling learners and to challenge gifted learners, thus allowing all children to make significant (meaningful) progress. Increased Independence in Class: Students completing the exercises will demonstrate increased ability to follow multi-step instructions, complete complex tasks, and work independently with minimal redirection. Improved Achievement Across All Academic Areas: Students who have a strong working memory can better comprehend what they have read (because they can track characters and plot), can solve math problems more accurately (because they can hold the numbers and steps they are holding), and can write more clearly and accurately because they have better organization. Target Audience Analysis: On the basis of the content, the nature of the language, and the explicit references within the PDF: The primary audience are second to fourth graders (approximately ages 7-10). The document explicitly states this developmental window as its focus. Secondary audience: The resource is just as appropriate for older students (5th grade and up) with identified learning disabilities, ADHD, or who are in a support program through Special Education, Resource Rooms, Speech Therapy, RTI, or MTSS. These basic foundational skills are often the major barriers to learners. Primary audience: for professionals, and not the kids. Of course, other groups are: General Education Teachers (Grades 2-4) Special Education Teachers School Psychologists Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) Educational Diagnosticians Homeschooling Parents who are familiar with brain development.
