As a homeschool mom who is passionate about bringing real science into our learning, I created this resource after watching my own kids become fascinated by optical illusions and questioning "how do we really know what we see?" This comprehensive package takes that natural curiosity and channels it into serious academic exploration of how our minds work. I have spent countless hours researching current neuroscience studies to ensure this material meets the rigor your advanced students deserve while remaining engaging and accessible. Whether you are preparing high schoolers/homeschoolers for college psychology courses or diving deep into critical thinking with curious learners, this resource delivers the kind of substantial content that sparks meaningful discussions around your kitchen table or classroom. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: Comprehensive reading passage that makes complex neuroscience understandable 20 carefully crafted questions that really make students think (not just recall facts) Complete answer key with detailed explanations Five note-taking sheets TOPICS COVERED: How optical illusions reveal the shortcuts our brains take every day Why we believe what we want to believe (confirmation bias explained) The sneaky ways first impressions influence all our decisions How growing up in different cultures literally changes what we see This resource bridges the gap between high school and college-level work beautifully. I designed it specifically for families and educators who want to offer their students/homeschoolers the kind of rigorous, research-based content they will encounter in university psychology and neuroscience courses. The depth and sophistication of the material challenges advanced learners while the clear organization and teaching supports make it manageable for dedicated students/homeschoolers. Whether you are homeschooling through high school or teaching AP-level courses, this resource provides the academic foundation and critical thinking development that sets students/homeschoolers up for success in higher education and beyond. If you and your students/homeschoolers enjoyed this resource, please leave a review. Thank you for your support! Tina - Big Easy Homeschooling Mom

Coping Toolbox SEL Lesson and Activity

Coping Toolbox SEL Lesson and Activity
Special Resources, Life Skills, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Special Education Needs (SEN), Preschool, Grade 1, 2, Teacher Tools, Lesson Plans, Activities, Crafts, Worksheets & Printables, Writing Prompts

In this social emotional (SEL) activity and SEL coloring pages, you will get a lesson plan on teaching students how to cope with change, strong feelings, and other challenges that come their way. This is such an important skill for students to learn so they can weather the ups and downs of childhood. They will create a paper toolbox, learn 4 different categories of coping, and write/draw with a prompt on a separate handout. The coping skills they will learn about are; slow breathing, say what you see, hear, and feel, think of something to look forward to, and do what you enjoy. This is most suitable for kindergarten, first, second and third grades. There is some reading required but teachers and parents can help the students understand what each skill is. There are visuals on the coping skill sheets as well. There is a page of directions and a link to a video on belly breathing. If you like this product and would like more social emotional learning resources, please visit my store at https://teachsimple.com/contributor/jennifer-moyer-taylor I am a full-time school counselor and create my own products for my students. I test each product on students when I go into the classes for classroom guidance lessons. If a resource does not resonate with the students, I change it to be more relevant and engaging. These are really kid tested, kid approved products! Teachers and school counselors can benefit from weaving in more social emotional learning lessons in the classroom-if students are not able to cope with a feeling, they have a very difficult time learning and paying attention. It is essential to teach these skills beginning at an early age and continue lessons that are developmentally appropriate as they grow up.
