Do you find that there are many complicated (and sometimes unseen) conflicts in your 4th, 5th, and 6th grade classroom? From conflicts on the playground to having miscommunication on group chat, pre-adolescents have a much more difficult time managing their social world than they ever did before. This curriculum on Conflict Resolution and Peer Mediation is a complete, research-supported program that will help you empower your students with the tools necessary for success in looking at conflict in a way that is positive and productive. This is not just another collection of worksheets; this is a complete Social Emotional Learning (SEL) toolkit that has been created for the modern student. Based on developmental psychology, this curriculum will address the two types of settings in which pre-adolescents experience conflict: the physical environment of the playground and the virtual environment of today's digital world (gaming, social media, texting). Using the use of "scripted roleplay scaffolding" methodology, this curriculum will enable a child to bypass the "fight or flight" response and give them the exact words and tools they need to de-escalate an argument, share their feelings in a healthy way, and resolve conflict. Additionally, by providing the student with a "lexical bridge," they will be able to articulate complex emotions (jealousy, exclusion, betrayal) in a manner that will promote empathy and understanding. What's Included in the 48 Page PDF File Section One - Guidelines for Teachers This section provides an in-depth overview of the theory and methodology used in the development of these scripts along with the reasons behind their creation. It covers issues such as social dynamics of pre-teens, the difference between intent versus impact, and the unique challenges of dealing with conflict in the digital world (Online Disinhibition Effect). Section Two - Eleven Worksheets for Students These are the main component of the curriculum and consist of eleven interactive worksheets that incorporate real-life scenarios faced by students on a daily basis. The worksheets cover a broad range of scenarios dealing with: Group Chat Misunderstanding (Roblox, text messaging) Disputes between Playground Rules (Four Square) Digital Exclusion (Multi Player Gaming, Minecraft) "I Was Only Playing" and Cyber Bullying Rumors, Gossip, and Broken Trust The Challenge of Inclusion (Cafeteria Seating) De-Escalation Strategies for Youth Valuing Digital Property and Creations Section Three - This teacher resource package includes all necessary materials needed to complete each portion of the curriculum. Visual Support: Printable, easy-to-read diagrams outlining the Peer Mediation Pathway, conflict escalation, and I-Statement structure. Complete Answer Key: Sample answers for all questions in the curriculum supporting main concepts of de-escalation and restorative language. Full Implementation Guide: Step-by-step directions for introducing your curriculum, implementing role-playing (including "Fishbowl" method), differentiating for all learning levels, and addressing and assisting with common challenges. Provide your students with a lifelong gift: confidence and ability to develop healthy friendships and resolve conflicts calmly and with compassion. This curriculum is for teachers, counselors, social workers and administrators.

Why Parents Schools Appreciate It: Provides the Exact Words: Rather than telling children what to do, it gives them exactly how to express themselves in situations of high stress. This "lexical certainty" is a game changer for those children who become overwhelmed by a situation and don’t know what to say. Addresses Today’s Technological Conflicts of the New Millennium: This curriculum goes beyond teaching children outdated scenarios to dealing with real types of digital situations that they face today, such as gaming exclusion, misunderstandings with friends on a group text message, and dealing with the impact of a “seen” message. Therefore, it is extremely relevant and effective. Research-based & Developmentally Appropriate: The method used in this curriculum is based on solid principles of child psychology and understands the concrete scaffolding that pre-adolescents need to utilize when managing complex feelings. It provides a structured safe environment in which to practice empathy. Comprehensive No Preparation Resource: This is a complete 48-page curriculum, not a single worksheet, along with a teacher’s guide, visual aids, student workbook, and an answer key, therefore providing the educator and/or counselor an immediate implementation resource with a high level of confidence. Builds Lifelong Skills: This curriculum is a method of solving conflicts today, it also creates the building blocks for rewiring a child’s approach to conflict as they move into adulthood and creating the neurological pathways to become more mature, empathetic, and resilient in relationships as an adult. Target Audience Classes : After conducting a thorough review of their report, the authors (PDF) specifically identified the following groups as targets based on a potential audience needs analysis: Grades: Fourth grade through sixth grade Ages: Approximately 9 to 12 years The authors also have tailored to this developmental stage, as well as their own peer social groupings, such as on playgrounds, in-game chat rooms (Roblox, Minecraft), and with friends via group messenger/chat program. Thus, they provide great information directed towards students in early/middle school and also those working with them professionally (school counselor/social worker).

Mindfulness and Somatic Grounding Exercises

The 5-4-3-2-1 Classroom Desk Edition is the ultimate resource for teachers to help their students relieve anxiety, manage the stress of testing, and develop better focus in class. Do you need an evidence-based, effective method to help students, manage anxiety, combat test stress, and improve focus on work? Use the Mindfulness and Somatic Grounding Classroom Desk Edition. This no-fuss curriculum helps teachers help their students through the unique challenges of middle school. In a traditional middle school, there are limited opportunities for students to use mindfulness in a private manner that does not draw attention to themselves. The Mindfulness and Somatic Grounding Classroom Desk Edition is a trauma-sensitive, neurobiologically accurate best practice that provides students with a method to use at their desks that will not call attention to them or make them feel conspicuous. The framework is based on the well-known 5-4-3-2-1 sensory method. By providing instructions for using the 5-4-3-2-1 sensory method at their desks, you will create a space for your students that can serve as an anchor of calmness and safety. The toolkit is a perfect fit for school counselors, homeroom teachers, and any teacher interested in Social-Emotional Learning (SEL). Everything you need to know to successfully teach this practice to your students is included in the toolkit! Here is a breakdown of the 43-page document: Part 1: Educator's Guide and Methodology: We go deep into an adolescent’s brain and how anxiety and their brain function. This will identify the reasons that this method works so that you have the professional knowledge to effectively teach it to students. The report contains case studies and the correct method of implementation. Part 2: 10-Worksheet Student Workbook: The student workbook is practical, interesting and beautifully produced to help guide all students through mastering the technique of Sensory Mapping. The worksheets are progressive in approach to build upon each of the skills necessary to master the technique (for example, from basic sensory mapping to “stealth” self-regulation in social situations and adapting the method of self-regulation for different environments—e.g., the library, science laboratory or assemblies). Part 3: Visuals and Educator Resources: a. Professional visuals—printable diagrams and mind maps that will allow you to visually represent Sensory Mapping to your students (ideal for use as classroom posters or in interactive notebooks); b. Scripts for Educators to teach the new technique to students in the classroom, both to the entire class and to individuals; c. Troubleshooting Guide (advice on what to do when students resist or have challenges with this approach); d. Section-by-section answer keys and educator notes to make it easy for you to assess and assist your students with each of the student worksheets. Assist your students in transitioning from the “fight or flight” response to the “rest and learn” mode by providing them with a self-regulation tool that they can use throughout their lives . Keywords: Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Mindfulness for Kids, Somatic Grounding, 5-4-3-2-1 Technique, Anxiety Management, Classroom Management, Middle School, 6th Grade, 7th Grade, 8th Grade, Test Anxiety, Focus, Self-Regulation, Trauma-Informed, Calm Down Corner, School Counselors, Printable Workbook, Digital Resource. Why School Systems and Parents Appreciate It: Low-Key and Without Stigma: This program lets students secretly control their anxiety with no attention drawn to themselves at their desks. Thus there is no social stigma attached to using an obvious 'calm down' tool or leaving the class to manage anxiety, which many adolescents are concerned about. Empowers Students: By learning how to ‘hack’ their own nervous system instead of relying on an adult to help them stop escalating to an explosive state, students are developing a coping strategy that gives them a tangible skill as well as a sense of control over their emotional state. Based on Evidence and Academics: The approach is based on established research from neurobiology and somatic psychology (the study of the amygdala hijack); therefore, both educators and students view the program in an academically serious manner because of the sophistication of the content but the simplicity of delivery. Comprehensive and Easy to Implement: This program is a comprehensive, use-ready package that includes a thorough description of the concepts, required materials, instructions for the teacher, illustrations, and complete answer keys. A busy educator could implement this program successfully with no problems at all. Addresses a Significant Need: With the increasing number of students suffering from anxiety in school, this program will help educators to address a significant need by providing a practical, efficient, and non-intrusive method to help students be present and able to learn. Target Audience: Content for Primary Target: The content of this resource is specifically targeting the primary target audience with specific and thorough data supporting it. Primary Target: Students in 6th-8th Grade (Middle School). The PDF provides information about this group consistently within the context of their neurological and social challenges they face (e.g. Synaptic Pruning, Social Camouflage, Peer Evaluation). The attached case studies/examples of two students, Julian and Maya, who are in the 8th and 6th grades, respectively and consistent with this audience. The worksheet difficulties are completely appropriate for this age group. Secondary Target: Students in 9th-10th Grade: Older readers with test anxiety or social anxiety will find this resource extremely useful. School Counselors, Psychologists and Therapists: This resource is an excellent Tier 1 (whole-class) and Tier 2 (individual/small group) intervention for school employed mental health providers. Special Education Teachers: This resource will provide an excellent tool to assist students who need a structured, concrete, sensory approach to learning self-regulation.

This product is NOT just a bunch of worksheets, it is an entire educational experience! The resource contains 3 parts: a theoretical guide for teachers, an interactive student workbook & a complete teacher resource pack. The unit provides students with hands-on experiences as they explore 6 classical simple machines (levers, pulleys, inclined planes, wedges, wheels and axles, screws) by examining real-world case studies such as the pyramids of Giza through modern skyscrapers, & then participating in a series of hands-on, challenging activities. Constructivist approaches promote "productive struggle" within the context of providing students with a true understanding of the concepts in this unit, using low-cost, readily available, recycled materials. No more expensive kits, use real-world, authentic inquiry-based learning that develops a true engineering mindset! What This 38-Page Resource Includes: In-depth explanation of Simple Machines: Each of the 6 Simple Machines is explained to teachers in easy-to-understand language. Helpful historical case studies and concept reinforcement questions are included to aid understanding. Worksheets: 10 challenging worksheets designed for students, allow students to demonstrate an understanding of Simple Machines in real-world contexts.

Simple machines, STEM activities, processes used in the design of mechanical systems (engineering design), the learning of physics, the learning of physics from the perspective of children, third grade, fourth grade, fifth-grade science, hands-on learning, project-based learning (PBL), the use of levers and pulleys, worksheets, STEM units or courses together with lesson plans requiring little or no preparation and low-cost preparation; utilizing mechanical advantages using acceleration. The Reasons Parents/Schools Value: Comprehensive & Ready to Use: This isn't just one thing to do; it is a full 5-week unit plan which includes theory, worksheets, visuals, and a detailed teacher's guide. This prepares the teacher for doing the lesson in dozens of hours less than would normally be required. Cost Effective & Easily Accessible: This unit plan was designed to be completed with items that are readily available to you such as cardboard, bottle caps, or string. There is no need to purchase expensive robotic kits that are specialized. Provides Deeper Conceptual Understanding: When students work through building challenges (e.g., utilizing force) they have a hands-on experience they will remember long after the activity is completed. Encourages Developing an Engineering Mindset: In addition to using the Engineering Design Cycle and creating "productive struggle", there is an emphasis on teaching students how to think like an engineer and to use real-world skills to solve problems, be resilient, implement multiple iterations of their solution, and critically think. Target group analysis : The text has an explicit statement of the target audience ("For students in grades 3-5"), so it's clear that the cognitive level of this audience is in the appropriate range. Because of these two factors, we have identified: 1. Primary audience Members consisting of 3rd through 5th Grade Teachers (from public, private and charter schools). 2. Secondary audience members of Homeschooling Families looking for a complete, structured STEM Curriculum. 3. Tertiary audience members will be STEM/STEAM Coordinators, After School Program Directors and Science Club Leaders or Facilitators.

Lego-Themed Emotion Regulation Lesson
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Kindergarten, Grade 1, 2, 3, Teacher Tools, Lesson Plans
In this Lego themed lesson, students will learn about the different zones made up of feelings and energy levels. There are directions for lesson one and two. The first lesson is to teach about the zones and to use a Lego themed poster to help explain them. There is a link to a cute song using Lego characters and teaching about the zones. There are instructions on what students will do next to build a robot, tower or person made up of the color zone(s) they are feeling. For example, if the student is feeling happy and tired, the structure would be made up of green and blue bricks. It is important to buy either Legos or a generic brand of toy bricks for this lesson. After the students create their structures, they can share with a partner, group or class. In the 2nd part of the lesson, students will discuss different types of strategies for how to move from the red, yellow or blue zones and get back to the green zone. They will then build a structure that represents a calm down strategy for them to use when they are in the other zones besides green and need to be focused to learn. For example students can build a cup to represent getting a drink of water. Then students will reflect on their learning by filling out a worksheet. This is a fun, engaging, and hands-on lesson to teach about emotion regulation. It is suitable for kindergarten, first, second and third grades. Each student can bring home the poster to share with their families. Then families can reinforce these concepts at home with their children.
