Emotional Regulation & Self-Care Planners for Teens
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Life Skills, Social Skills, Special Education Needs (SEN), Speech Therapy, Life Studies, Coaching, Career, Leadership, Grade 9, 10, 11, 12, Teacher Tools, Assessments, Lesson Plans, Quizzes and Tests, Quizzes, Tests, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Word Searches, Workbooks
The Emotional Regulation & Self-Care Planner for Teens (39 pages), which is available digitally as a curriculum and a planner, is laid out in three phases. The first phase (core content & theory) consists of four chapters dealing with the neurobiology of adolescent emotions, the cognitive restructuring process as well as working with the inner critic; somatic regulation (resilience of the nervous system); strategic self-care (boundary architecture). Also included are real-life case studies of teenagers (amygdala hijack, perfectionism spiral, freeze response/burnout cycle); The second phase consists of a student workbook that includes ten interactive worksheets (re: affective granularity/metacognition cognitive distortion; interoceptive/somatic map; navigating the Window of Tolerance boundary architecture; digital ecosystem audit; executive function/anticipatory anxiety; and interpersonal rupture & repair); The third phase consists of visuals & teacher resources (classroom visuals, answer keys, assessment rubrics, teacher implementation guide). The three visuals contain high-fidelity representations of the Window of Tolerance diagram; cognitive-behavioral triad; multidimensional self-care matrix). The teacher resources contain answer keys for each module and rubrics for use in assessing student work. The resource addresses self-care from three frameworks, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and polyvagal theory and defines self-care as "radical stewardship of oneself". It provides teenagers with practical tools for emotional regulation, managing stress, setting digital boundaries, and developing resilience. The resource was designed to be print-ready and tested in classrooms, and includes fillable blank forms and reflection items. What Parents/Schools Appreciate: Based on research and ready to use in class – Integrating CBT, DBT and Polyvagal Theory, the program includes worksheets for students as well as the teacher's key that connects with social emotional learning (SEL) standards, thereby saving weeks of lesson planning. Directly targeted to teens and highly engaging – The material is presented via case studies from students, real-world issues they face with the digital age and through visual diagrams that connect to these emotional learning experiences for grades 9-12. Trauma-informed and provides safety – The material provides the students with options, breaks the stigma on emotional learning and clearly explains the reporting protocols for educators, making it a resource they can use for success in diverse classrooms. Comprehensive and multi-functional – It can be used for whole class lesson plans, small group counseling, advisory periods or as a self-help resource for individual students, one product meets several needs. Immediate learning and long term benefit – Students develop ongoing skills in emotional granularity, boundary setting, and regulating their nervous system while parents and schools experience decreased levels of anxiety and increased levels of focus. Intended Students: Students in Grades 9-12 only. All the examples, case studies, language, and content are created specifically for high school students (ages 14-18) who are dealing with academic pressures, social media, peer group dynamics, forming their identity, and normal neurodevelopmental changes in the developing teenage brain. This material is inappropriate for middle school students (too mature) or college students (too teen-focused).

This radios reading comprehension includes: Visualization (on the front cover) Start your lesson by taking a minute to think and share something about the topic. Read the script aloud (slowly), perhaps prepare some music or sound effects. Student close their eyes and let their imaginations wander. Students open their eyes, read the question aloud and give them a few minutes to complete. Ask a few students to share or keep answers until the end to compare with what they learn in the passage. Quick pause—thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership. Download links and encyclopedia index available here. Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. Give 1 minute for students to write what they already know (no pressure—best guess is fine). Read the five facts together. After each fact, do ask a student for their opinion, was it surprising? Set a purpose by asking students to highlight/underline one fact they want to learn more about during the reading. Reading Passage The text is a high-interest reading passage with set paragraphs, roughly three to four paragraphs long. It contains a variety of themes about the topic, anywhere from history to technology. The passage is between 250 and 350 words in length. First, ask students to look at the headings and see what they’ll learn about today. What do they know about the topic/heading? First read options: Teacher read-aloud (best for support). Partner reading (paragraph by paragraph). While reading, students underline important details, and vocabulary words they think may come up in the questions section. Mixed Questions The first question page contains four multiple-choice questions, each with a choice of four answers, and three written response questions that require a sentence or two from the student. Students complete the mcqs first independently, then review quickly as a class. For the 3 written responses, try to get students giving the answer with some form of evidence: “I think ___ because the text says ___.” If students get stuck, send them back to check the passage. Vocabulary Questions Practice seven key words from the text in this section across two activities. First section is scrambled words where students will unscramble three words given a clue for each. The second section is a word to meaning matching activity. Before starting, have some students read out words they underlined in the passage. Ask students to say the word and read aloud the sentence(s) around each word. Ask students to do scrambled words and the matching exercise in pairs then go through answers as a class. For the scrambled spelling task, get four pairs to come up to the board and write the words for extra practice with the other student reading out the clue. For the matching task, prompt students to give full sentences: “I matched ___ with ___ because ___.” Creative Writing In this question, the student will be required to write a five to eight sentence paragraph on a question related to the topic. Before starting, ask students write down 3 key ideas they are going to include in their piece. Ask students for ideas to share around the class to help those struggling. Pro writing expectations: 5–8 sentences At least 2 facts or details from the passage At least 2 vocabulary words from the previous page Students read their paragraphs while classmates listen for facts and vocabulary words. Extension Activities This page is optional for fast finishers or to take home. There are several activities, each one requiring a different skill. Do some, do none, do all, completely optional - but you will feel reassured knowing every possibility is planned for. Includes summary writting question. Answer Key There are answers for the multiple-choice questions, written response questions have sample answers, vocabulary answers and if there is a summary question then a sample summary will be provided as well. Lesson Plan Included Customized lesson plan for this lesson is included.

Keywords for SEO: Unplugged coding, coding without a computer, computational thinking, STEM, STEAM, hour of code, elementary coding, 2nd grade, 3rd grade, 4th grade, 5th grade, algorithms, loops, if/then logic, debugging, kinesthetic learning, embodied cognition, screen-free activities, homeschool curriculum, computer science fundamentals, problem-solving, logic puzzles. Why Parents/Schools Love It: Promotes Screen-Free Learning: Addresses the widespread concern over excessive screen time by teaching vital tech skills in a completely offline, hands-on way. Kinesthetic & Engaging for All Learners: By using physical movement ("Human Robot" protocol) and tactile puzzles, it captures the attention of all students, especially active learners who struggle with passive instruction. Builds Real Foundational Skills: This is not just fluff. It teaches the core logic (sequencing, loops, conditionals, debugging) that forms the backbone of all programming languages, setting students up for future success. Fosters a "Growth Mindset" toward Errors: The entire unit, especially the debugging module, frames mistakes as puzzles to be solved, not failures. The motto "The Bug is a Teacher, Not a Failure" (page 33) is a powerful tool for building resilience. Comprehensive & Teacher-Friendly: It's a "print and go" resource. With a teacher's guide, student worksheets, visual aids, and a full answer key, it saves educators valuable prep time. Target Student Grade Levels : Based on the content, language, and the explicit "Modulating Rigor" guide on page 40, target: Primary Target: 2nd Grade through 5th Grade The resource is brilliantly designed for differentiation across this range: For 2nd - 3rd Graders: The activities on sequential logic, basic loops ("Code Dances"), and relative direction are perfectly suited. The focus is on concrete, physical actions. For 4th - 5th Graders: The curriculum challenges them with more complex concepts like nested loops (Worksheet 9), compound conditional logic ("Else If"), and writing more precise, efficient algorithms.

Provide your advanced high school students with this 42-page climate policy curriculum that focuses on advanced dialectical analysis rather than simplified activism. This curriculum will encourage active learning for your students by transforming passive learning into a deep intellectual engagement through multi-perspective debate, policy creation, and ethical reasoning. Students will explore: The transition from the Kyoto Protocol to the Paris Agreement and the principle of Common But Differentiated Responsibilities (CBDR) Carbon pricing mechanisms (Carbon Tax vs. Cap and Trade), as well as the Social Cost of Carbon The ethics of geoengineering (Stratospheric Aerosol Injection [SAI], moral hazard, risks associated with unilateral use of SAI) Environmental justice, climate debt, and the Cobalt Paradox in developing countries Youth climate lawsuits, climate refugees and international law, methane agricultural policies, financing urban adaptation, and accountability for greenwashing Includes 10 high-level student worksheets with conceptual fill-in-the-blank (using a unique 7-underscore system), real-world case studies and hypothetical case studies, critical debate prompts, and challenging policy creation assignments for students. Teacher answer keys, implementation guides, visual diagrams (Climate Policy Trilemma, Stakeholder Matrix, and Carbon Pricing Mind Map), and differentiation strategies are also included. Ideal for AP Environmental Science, AP Government, AP Economics, IB Global Politics, Honors Humanities, and Model UN/debate programs. Encourages real critical thinking, systems analysis, and nuanced understanding of the trade-offs between enhancing developing countries. The Key Reasons Why Parents and Schools Appreciate It: Facilitates unbiased critical thinking instead of dogmatic, ideologically-based, practical-thinking-by-proxy students making arguments for and against competing choices (e.g., Growth vs. Fossil-Fuel Abolition; Independent Sovereign Nation vs. World Government; Technology as Hope or as a Curse). Extensive preparation for taking Advanced Placement tests; writing college level essays, debating other humans, as well as the development of well-thought-out arguments using established policies, and ethical reasoning based on sound ethical reasoning standards. A balanced view of the world; an honest consideration of the challenges facing developing nations, "Just Transition", climate liabilities, and the risk of neo-colonial influence in creating green supply chains. Teacher support that is broad in scope and purpose; includes teacher-oriented teacher guides, "look-for" answers for the teachers, pacing guides and strategies for differentiating instruction, visual aids to illustrate concepts, and techniques for managing classroom conversations. An exceedingly entertaining way to teach about Climate Change, as well as Science, by creating opportunities for students to compete with each other on an intellectual level, as opposed to being preached at.

Dmitri Mendeleev – The Man Behind the Periodic Table Comprehension Activities A short reading and comprehension activity for science classes (PDF + H5P) ⚗️📘 A printable and digital resource for grades 7–10 science and cross-curricular teaching 🧪🧠 This resource introduces students to Dmitri Mendeleev, the chemist who first organized the periodic table in a way that allowed scientists to predict the discovery of new elements. His approach wasn’t just about sorting known facts – it was about seeing patterns and thinking ahead. That story can really bring chemistry to life for students. The material includes a short, student-friendly informational text along with structured follow-up tasks. It works well in a chemistry unit focusing on the periodic table or chemical elements, but it can also be used in interdisciplinary contexts or as part of a history-of-science project. Included in this resource: A brief reading text about Mendeleev and his scientific achievements A worksheet to help students summarize key information in a profile format Quiz questions with an answer key Two optional extensions: – Students write their own questions about the text – Exchange questions with a partner and respond Formats: – PDF (print and digital use) – DOCX (editable, without images) – H5P (for digital platforms, text-only) How to use it in class: I’ve used this type of material both as an introduction to the periodic table and as a filler activity when students need something structured but manageable. The quiz can be done individually or discussed as a group, and the partner tasks work well for early finishers. The H5P version is especially helpful in digital classrooms or for homework: students can check their answers independently and work at their own pace. You don’t need much prep. Just print or upload the files and you’re ready to go. Have fun exploring the world of science with your students! Warmly, Lernfitness Did You Know?

Archimedes – Scientist Profile and Comprehension Activities Informational Text, Student Tasks & Quiz (PDF, DOCX, H5P) ⚖️🧠 This resource introduces students in grades 7–10 to Archimedes, one of the most influential figures in early science. Best known for his work on buoyancy and the principle of density determination for irregular objects, Archimedes connects classical thought with key scientific concepts still taught today. The material combines factual reading with structured tasks. It can be used flexibly: in science lessons, for cross-curricular units, or as an easy-to-run activity in substitute teaching. Students read a short informational text, fill in a profile worksheet, complete quiz questions, and – if time allows – create their own questions to exchange with a partner. What’s included: Informational text about Archimedes Profile worksheet for comprehension and reflection Answer key for the profile Quiz questions with solutions Two extension tasks: – Create your own questions – Exchange and answer a partner’s questions File formats: – Printable PDF – Editable DOCX (text only) – Interactive H5P version (text-based, no images) In the classroom: I’ve used this kind of resource in regular science lessons as well as in non-specialist cover lessons. The tasks are clear enough for independent work and provide a good balance between reading, writing, and critical thinking. The H5P version allows for easy digital use on learning platforms, especially when students work from home or on devices in class. It’s also great for differentiation: stronger students can work on their own questions, while others use the glossary or reread sections to complete the basics. Whether you use it to introduce Archimedes in physics or to practice nonfiction reading strategies, this is a flexible resource that’s ready to go with little prep. Have fun exploring the world of science with your students! Warmly, Lernfitness Did You Know?
