Letter O Worksheets + PowerPoint Lesson: Beginning Sounds Lesson 15
Special Resources, ELA, Special Education Needs (SEN), Language Development, Phonics, Speech Therapy, Kindergarten, Preschool, Worksheets, Worksheets & Printables, Presentations, Teacher Tools
Letter O Worksheets + PowerPoint Lesson Lesson 15 teaches the letter Oo and its related phonic sound through a 37-slide PowerPoint lesson, and 5 follow-up activity worksheets. All you need to teach the phonic letter O! Whether in school or at home, this series of phonic presentations can help you effectively teach initial/beginning sounds to all pupils, including those with special needs/dyslexia. This lesson is part of a synthetic, systematic phonics programme for all abilities, including those suspected of being dyslexic. This lesson is in the first stage of the Reading Made Simple programme, where we teach the initial, or beginning, sounds. The ability to hear the initial/beginning sound is stressed throughout, while we learn to associate each letter with its sound. Each lesson can stand alone, but the activities will presume knowledge of the previous letters in the alphabet as Reading Made Simple teaches the initial sounds in alphabetical order. Special features of the Letter O Worksheets and PowerPoint presentation: The PowerPoint is silent so that you can interact with your child in the best way for them: full instructions are provided at the bottom of each slide - be sure to show 'Notes'. The PowerPoint is editable so that you can make it fit your pupils. Science of Reading Aligned Truly phonetic; no 'i' for 'ice-cream'. We focus heavily on phonemic awareness, which is so necessary for a head start in phonics The child is given plenty of opportunities to learn the necessary skills - perfection is not expected in lesson 1. Still, the teacher will look for the development of the necessary skills as the child works through the alphabet. What is included in the Letter O worksheets Pack? A 37-slide PowerPoint which teaches phonemic awareness, letter/sound correspondence and letter formation, along with practice games 5 follow-up, Letter O worksheets How can this resource be used? It can be used in multiple ways: As the child learns each sound, you can use the PowerPoint lesson to reinforce your lesson It can be sent home for a child to watch with his/her parents after being taught the letter Oo in class - this will then act as revision as well as training the parent as to what is necessary to help the child. Use in class Use at home by parents or for home education Suggested Method: Introduce each letter in turn to your pupil. Have a flashcard of the letter ready. Say each letter's sound to the child and ask him/her to repeat it thrice. Explain that some words begin with this sound. Give an example. You can use the lesson as teacher training for yourself, to learn how to teach your child, or to use it with the child. Choose suitable activities (matching your child's ability) from the pack of worksheets. Notes are suggestions only. Use language appropriate to your pupil and be sure to interact naturally. However, could you focus on the child's hearing of the sounds at the beginning of words? This is often overlooked in the quest to help children learn the initial sounds as quickly as possible. Technical help: Please open PowerPoint in normal mode so you can see the notes and use the 'Draw' tool when prompted. Some slides are interactive.

Lesson Plan on Pablo Picasso
Art, Creative Arts, Art History, Fine Arts, Biographies, Social Studies, Not Grade Specific, Activities, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools, Worksheets, Worksheets & Printables
Pablo Picasso was among the most impactful artists of the 20th century. He is recognized for co-founding the Cubist movement, creating constructed sculpture, co-inventing collage, and for the diverse range of styles that he contributed to and examined. For approximately 80 of his 91 years, Picasso dedicated himself to creating art that played a crucial role in the overall progress of modern art during the 20th century, especially through the creation of Cubism (alongside artist Georges Braque) around 1907. Picasso is often regarded as THE genius of the twentieth century. Possibly more than any other artist, he transformed the course of art, initiating the modernist movement. He was an innovator of Cubism, subsequently of collage art, and eventually neo-classicism. This lesson plan centers around the artwork of Pablo Picasso. Numerous activities are provided, arranged in two worksheets. Their answers are provided in the end. Six of his most famous works are also included.

Are you having difficulty keeping your class from being disrupted by impulsive behaviors, such as yelling out of turn, grabbing objects off the desk, etc? Transform your classroom into an orderly, peaceful environment using this cutting edge, neuroscience-based curriculum for teaching impulse control skills! This is not a behavior chart. It is a complete, turn-key curriculum designed to provide K-3 students with a reason for their actions and give students the skill set necessary to “Stop and Think.” This curriculum is based upon cause and effect mapping. This curriculum also creates a visual, non-judgmental framework for developing and reinforcing lifelong self-control and executive functioning skills without relying upon punishment. The impulse control curriculum is a perfect teaching tool for general and special education teachers and school counselors because it directly addresses the neurodevelopmental needs of young children. Young students will finally develop a clear understanding of how to connect the impulse for an immediate action with the consequences of that action at a future time. Packages Include 46 Pages of Content That Covers: Phase 1: Educator’s Guide to the Impulsive Brain: A Simple, Easy-to-Follow Guide About the Neurobiology of the K-3 Brain So You Can Implement this Strategy in Your Classroom with Confidence. Phase 2: Student Workbook with 10 Scenarios: Homework Sheets That Help You With Everyday Classroom Challenges. Primarily Used For Teachers To Give Out, Also For Students To Complete On Their Own. Examples Include: Calling Out (The Interruption Ripple) Grabbing & Boundary Violations (The Space Invader) Hallway Safety (The Transition Tornado) Task Avoidance and Frustration (The Frustration Flash) Cutting in Line, Misusing Supplies, Indoor Voice and many other examples. Phase 3: Teacher Visuals and Resources: Conceptual Diagrams: Simple Visual Aids To Help Explain The ‘Stop and Think’ Cycle And The Domino Effect of Actions.

Download now and create a more compassionate, calm, and productive classroom! Search Terms: Impulse control, self-regulation, social emotional learning (SEL), classroom behavior management, behavior Intervention, executive functioning, Cause and Effect, Stop and Think, K-3, Kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade, 3rd grade, ADHD Support, Emotional regulation, print documents, behavior mapping, visuals to support learning. Reasons Why Parents and Schools Appreciate This System: The focus of this system is on skill building through the development of empathy & social awareness, rather than punishment. When discipline is replaced with proactive skill building, it empowers your child. This system is backed by neuroscientific research on how children develop. Many traditional methods do not function well because they do not work with how the brain develops, so this system is based on good science. Through the principle of the "ripple effect", children will develop a better understanding of how their behaviour affects not only themselves but also family & friends. This is not just a worksheet. This system includes the teacher's guide, activities for students, visual aids and an answer key, so you can spend more time teaching & less time preparing. The system will validate the feelings and impulses of a child ("Your body was telling you to grab") and provide the child with tangible tools to make a better choice, allowing him/her to become an active architect of his/her own success. Intended Audience: The target audience is educators and support personnel who work with children in grades K-3, as well as parents who want to support their child at home. The way that children in this age group typically learn and behave, make it difficult for them to develop effective self-regulation skills, therefore parents and professionals need additional support in teaching these skills. The explicit text indicates a K-3 focus (ages 5-9) and the type of behavioral problems addressed in this resource; behaviors classified as K-3 students in the general education classroom include: * K-3 General Education (all K-3 classes) * K-3 Special Education teachers who assist students with ADHD, ASD and/or other executive functioning deficits * School-based counselors, social workers and school psychologists providing small group and individual intervention * Behavior interventionists and BCBAs * Proactive parents wanting to implement strategies at home to help their child gain self-regulation skills Copyright and Terms of Use: The author, Syed Hammad Rizvi, has copyrighted this resource for your sole enjoyment in the classroom and at home. You may not copy, modify or distribute this resource in any way, including on the Internet, where it can be found and downloaded for free by anyone. If you would like to share this resource with your colleagues (and they would like their own copy), you can purchase additional licenses from Teachsimple!

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.

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.

It also defines three performance bands: Secure (80%–100%) , Developing (50%–79%) , and Needs Support (below 50%) . The Student Performance Profile on page 15 of Part 2 provides a one-page strand snapshot with space for strengths, focus areas, assigned Part 3 practice pages, and group placement. The Class Data Tracker on page 16 gives teachers a whole-class view of strand percentages, while the Suggested Instructional Groups on page 17 connect shared student needs to specific follow-up practice. Standards & Learning Goals This seventh grade science diagnostic assessment reviews foundational science concepts, evidence-based reading, and scientific reasoning across four major areas: 🌱 Life Science — cell structure and function, photosynthesis, cellular respiration, matter cycling, traits, DNA and gene hierarchy, Punnett squares, dominant and recessive alleles, probability of traits, sexual reproduction, genetic ratios, ecosystem energy flow, organism roles, limiting factors, population data, and ecosystem CER reasoning ⚛️ Physical Science — atoms and elements, chemical reactions, conservation of mass, signs of chemical reactions, heat transfer, conduction, convection, radiation, thermal energy flow, forces and motion, velocity-time graphs, acceleration, force and mass relationships, and chemical-reaction CER reasoning 🌎 Earth Science — Earth’s four interacting systems, system components, system interactions, renewable and nonrenewable resources, energy-source graphs, human impact, sustainability, and resource-use CER reasoning 🔬 Scientific Practices & Reading — experimental design, independent and dependent variables, controlled variables, inference, repeated trials, averages, graph analysis, reading scientific texts for evidence, citing text details, interpreting passage data, drawing conclusions, and reading-based CER Students demonstrate understanding through varied science tasks rather than one question type. The assessment includes a photosynthesis diagram , cellular respiration diagram , DNA hierarchy , Bb × Bb Punnett square , genetics data, ecosystem population data, a chemical reaction model, sealed-container mass data, heat-transfer scenes, a velocity-time graph, Earth-system interactions, an energy-source graph, experimental variables, repeated-trial averages, and a two-series plant-growth graph. The Skill-by-Skill Scoring Chart on pages 11–13 of Part 2 helps teachers pinpoint specific gaps rather than relying only on one overall score. Skills include photosynthesis, respiration, DNA and genes, Punnett squares, heredity, ecosystem energy, chemical reactions, conservation of mass, heat transfer, forces, acceleration, Earth systems, natural resources, experimental design, variables, averages, graph analysis, reading for evidence, text evidence, passage-data interpretation, and reading-based CER. A particularly valuable feature is the integration of science literacy . Part 1 includes two short scientific texts— “The Hand-Washing Study” and “Coral Reefs and Warming Oceans” —followed by evidence-based questions that ask students to identify variables, cite controlled-test details, explain relationships, interpret numerical trends, and construct a CER response from text evidence. Why Teachers Love It ✨ Move beyond a single test score. Results can be analyzed by strand and individual skill, helping teachers see exactly where students are secure and where review is needed. ✨ Measure both science knowledge and evidence-based reasoning. The diagnostic checks content while also asking students to interpret models, analyze data, read scientific texts, cite evidence, and explain reasoning. ✨ Turn assessment data into an instructional plan. The scoring tools connect results to performance bands, student profiles, instructional groups, and targeted follow-up practice instead of leaving teachers with a stack of completed tests. ✨ Integrate science and reading skills. Two short scientific passages are followed by five evidence-based questions, giving teachers insight into how well students extract and use information from science texts. ✨ Use authentic scientific topics for reading practice. Students analyze a hand-washing investigation and a passage about coral reefs and warming oceans, then answer questions using specific evidence from the texts. ✨ Build genetics readiness. Students work with traits, DNA and gene hierarchy, dominant and recessive alleles, Punnett squares, predicted ratios, and observed offspring data. ✨ Connect photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Students interpret both processes through diagrams, equations, inputs, outputs, organelles, energy relationships, and matter cycling. ✨ Assess chemical reactions through models and evidence. Students analyze atom rearrangement, conservation of mass, reaction signs, sealed-container data, and CER evidence from temperature change and gas formation. ✨ Strengthen graph and data analysis. Students interpret ecosystem tables, genetic ratios, reaction mass data, velocity-time graphs, energy-source graphs, repeated trials, multi-series plant-growth graphs, and numerical trends in scientific passages. ✨ Support data-driven small groups. The Suggested Instructional Groups on page 17 of Part 2 organize students around shared gaps in Life Science, Physical Science, Earth Science, or Scientific Practices and connect those groups to matching Part 3 pages. ✨ Differentiate with clear performance bands. Use Secure, Developing, and Needs Support ranges to guide enrichment, targeted practice, or foundational small-group reteaching. ✨ Assign only the review students need. The 11 targeted follow-up pages include: Cells & Energy Review Genetics & Heredity Review Ecosystems Review Chemical Reactions & Matter Review Heat Transfer Review Forces & Motion Review Earth’s Systems Review Natural Resources Review Experimental Design & Data Review Reading Science for Evidence Review CER Writing Review The Practice Page Menu on page 2 of Part 3 directly matches common student difficulties to specific follow-up pages, making targeted assignment faster. ✨ Refresh key concepts before practice. Every targeted page includes a concise Key Concept section. Students review essential ideas before completing fresh practice, reducing the need to create separate reteaching notes. ✨ Extend learning for students who are already secure. Every follow-up page includes an Extension task that pushes students into explanation, application, prediction, argument, or investigation design. ✨ Use fresh follow-up practice instead of repeating the diagnostic. Part 3 explicitly provides all-new practice so students can demonstrate understanding with new examples and situations. ✨ Teach students how to read science for evidence. The dedicated Reading Science for Evidence Review page includes a new earthworm investigation passage and asks students to cite evidence, explain repeated trials, connect biological information to results, and generate a testable follow-up question. ✨ Build stronger Claim-Evidence-Reasoning responses. CER appears throughout the diagnostic and also receives its own targeted follow-up page. Students practice distinguishing claim, evidence, and reasoning and constructing a complete response from data. ✨ Make grading more manageable. Part 4 provides correct answers, short explanations of why, suggested responses for open-ended and reading items, completed diagrams, sample CER responses, and partial-credit guidance. ✨ Use completed diagrams for faster checking. The Completed Diagrams Quick View on page 2 of Part 4 points teachers to fully worked versions of photosynthesis, cellular respiration, DNA hierarchy, the Punnett square, the chemical reaction model, and heat-transfer scenes. ✨ Score open-ended work more consistently. Part 4 explains that multi-part items can receive point-by-point partial credit and that CER and reading items should be evaluated for a reasonable claim, specific evidence, and reasoning that connects them. ✨ Keep the instructional loop connected. Assessment, analysis, grouping, targeted review, science literacy practice, reteaching, and answer support are designed as one coordinated system rather than disconnected activities. Start the year knowing what students understand, how well they reason with evidence, and what they need next with this 7th grade beginning of year science assessment . Download this complete middle school science diagnostic and targeted review system to assess readiness, analyze results by strand and skill, create focused instructional groups, assign specific follow-up practice, strengthen science reading and CER writing, and support reteaching with complete explained answer keys. Perfect for teachers searching for a 7th grade science diagnostic assessment , beginning-of-year science review, middle school science pre-assessment, back-to-school science assessment, seventh grade science review, Life Science review, Physical Science review, Earth Science review, Scientific Practices assessment, photosynthesis and cellular respiration, genetics and heredity, Punnett squares, ecosystems, chemical reactions, conservation of mass, heat transfer, forces and motion, Earth systems, natural resources, experimental design, variables, graph analysis, reading science for evidence, CER practice, science intervention, small-group science planning, data-driven instruction, or targeted science reteaching.

This camping reading comprehension with lesson plan 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. COMPANION VIDEO NOW AVAILABLE (EMBEDDED AFTER PREVIEW PICTURES IN PRODUCT DESCRIPTION) 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 and additional facts. 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. Lesson Snapshot Title: Camping Genre: Nonfiction (informational text with headings) Subject: Reading (Informational Text) / Social Studies Primary Topic: How camping began, changed, and stays respectful Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): N What This Lesson Teaches Best Explains what camping is and what campers might notice at night (lantern glow, smell of pine, owls, cooler air). Builds background knowledge about how camping shifted from travel/work to a fun hobby in the late 1800s. Uses a chronological structure with time markers (late 1800s, 1894, 1901, 1908, after World War I, 1960s) to show change over time. Introduces environmental responsibility through a “leave-no-trace approach,” including keeping camps small and taking trash home. Gives practice with text features (section headings) to locate information efficiently. Learning Goals Students will describe what camping is using details from the passage. Students will explain why people slept outside long ago and how camping later became a hobby. Students will identify key events and dates from the passage (1894, 1901, 1908, after World War I, 1960s). Students will use headings to find information about camping’s history, campgrounds, and “leave-no-trace.” Students will compare different ways people camp (backpacks vs. car/RV) based on the passage. Students will explain what the passage says a leave-no-trace approach means. Key Vocabulary From the Text shelter — a place that protects you. lantern — a light you can carry. demanded — needed or required. commercial — run as a business. approach — a way of doing something.

This unit focuses on the Beginning, Middle and Ending Digraph sounds. Learning how to read can be the most challenging activity for many students and for a teacher. A digraph in the English language are two letters put together that represents a single sound or phoneme. Understanding that the combination of letters can make one sound can be difficult to master and requires repetitive practice of reading and writing these words with these sounds. There are other phonics units that I sell that focuses on the Beginning Digraph sounds, and one that focuses on just the Ending Digraph sounds. Reading can be made easier with these phonic helps that repeatedly encourage students to practice these Beginning, Middle and Ending Digraph sounds. Activities include reading comprehension and identifying the digraphs in their reading, writing their answers to questions regarding the paragraph, identifying additional digraph words in sentences using a word bank, matching words with pictures, spinning a paperclip activity where students will write the word with the digraph sound, and lastly a fun wordsearch with the digraph words. These activities are for each digraph so there is plenty of opportunities for students to practice their comprehension reading skills and phonic sounds. Students will practice the following Beginning, Middle and Ending Digraph sounds: ch, sh, th, wh, and ph. Teachers can use this resource in whole group, individually with students, students can practice with each other in centers, or they can be assigned as homework. Worksheets are also differentiated for each Beginning, Middle and Ending Digraph sound for all young learners which makes it perfect for all 1st - 2nd graders. A total of 33 pages full of reading and phonic activities. Along with reading and writing, there are matching, cutting, and pasting activities.

Mindfulness for Exam Stress – Focused Attention Worksheets
Life Skills, Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Social Skills, Special Education Needs (SEN), Speech Therapy, STEM, Resources for Teachers, Classroom Management, Community Building, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Worksheets & Printables, Workbooks, Worksheets, Word Searches, Teacher Tools, Assessments, Lesson Plans, Presentations, Quizzes and Tests, Tests
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).
