Turn your classroom into an environmental science lab with the help of this awesome 41-page Zero Waste Lifestyle Tracking and Habit Builder Journal! This is a project-based learning resource for grades 4–8 that is aligned to the standards! Looking for a real world environmentally focused way to teach environmental science to your students that isn't just a bunch of recycling posters? A complete curriculum journal combining current neuroscience research, ecology theory and hands-on data collection will give your students everything they need to consider themselves true environmental scientists - and it begins with measuring their own lives! This resource is not just one big stack of worksheets but rather, it is a fully scaffolded 3-phase academic journal developed with university seminar style rigor and middle school classroom style accessibility. Your students won’t just learn about the environment; they’ll measure it, analyze it and make changes to it! CONTENTS (41 Pages, Print & Digital Ready): Phase 1 — Core Content & Theory (4 chapters): 1. The Anatomy of Waste explains what happens throughout the lifespan of waste items, including Lifecycle Assessment (LCA), the impact of microplastics in our world today, which items go in the landfill, which items can be incinerated, and how long it takes for a plastic fork to travel 450 years into our future 2. The Neuroscience of Habit Building discusses how our brains form habits based on the basal ganglia of the brain, how we can rebuild/rewire our habits scientifically through neuroplasticity, and the three parts of the habit loop (cue-routine-reward) 3. The Zero-Waste Hierarchy introduces the four elements of a zero-waste lifestyle: Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Rot (Composting) and Recycle. This chapter includes a real-world example of how one school significantly reduced their waste by over 90% using these four proven methods 4. Data-Driven Stewardship teaches your students to think like a marine biologist and meteorologist by showing them how to track and analyze their own local environmental data. After each chapter is a fill-in-the-blank review of the chapter, called the Scholar's Review. Phase 2: 10Worksheet Workbook for Students (Research Lab Style) Personal Waste Audit 24-Hour (Data Collection Protocols: Empirical) Material Lifecycle Analysis of Material (From Raw Extraction To Disposal) Biochemistry of Composting (Green And Brown Materials, Aerobic And Anaerobic Decomposition) Single Use Plastic Substitution Matrix (Cost/Benefit Analysis) Water and Energy Footprint Calculation (Embedded Energy And Water Load Calculation; Shower Each Year; Cost Of Water To Make Cotton Shirt) Redesign Challenge For Circular Economy (Planned Volatility, Upcycling, Extended Producer Responsibility) Food Waste Economics (FIFO Pantry System, Estimate Of $780 Of Food Waste Per Year, What Is A Food Standard For A Non-Food Waste Item?) Fast Fashion Footprint (Cost To Wear, Use Of Micro-Plastics, Philosophy Of Wardrobe) Supermarket Packaging Detective (Identifying Greenwashing, Multi-Layered Packages, Bulk Purchasing) Zero-Waste Habit Builder (Keystone Priming, 30-Day Tracking Plan, Write Manifesto For A Zero Waste Life) PHASE 3—Teacher Resources and Visuals: Three professionally designed SVG diagrams (Zero Waste Hierarchy, Linear vs. Circular Economy, Sustainability Habit Loop) Complete Answer Key with example answers and teacher rubric notes 4 week pacing guide with weekly objectives, activities, teacher roles and homework 100-point assessments rubric across four categories of data collection, behavioural design, critical thinking and communication Five extension activities (Trash Jar Challenge, Community Waste Mapping, Letter Writing Campaign to Corporations, Do-It-Yourself Repairs Workshop, Composting Science Experiment; if possible please use a separate document per activity) Strategies for differentiating instruction for Grades 4-5, Grade 8/Gifted, IEP/504 and ELL students CONNECTING TO CURRICULUM: This journal ties into Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), Common Core English Language Arts (informational text analysis, evidence based writing) and Common Core Mathematics (percentages, projections, data analysis). This journal combines many subjects — environmental science, behavioral psychology, economics and persuasive writing — into one connected whole. USAGE IDEAS: Great as a 4-week stand-alone unit or as part of an after-school environmental club, summer enrichment program or reinforcement through integration into existing science, health or social studies curricula. Assign user digitally (fillable PDF) or in print. DIGITAL DOWNLOAD — PRINT & GO! REASONS PARENTS/SCHOOLS LOVE THE RESOURCE: Merging Science, Psychology, and Real-World Mathematics – Instead of merely reading about the environment, kids actually conduct real waste audits, calculate their water footprints, and use their own personal data to perform real-world food waste economics analysis – helping them to take abstract concepts and move towards making those concepts their own, and thus, real. Tremendous Support For Teachers From Day One – Each of the resources, including a complete 4-Week Pacing Guide, example responses in the Answer Key, a 100-point Assessment Rubric, and a variety of differentiation strategies to accommodate ALL learners (IEP/504, ELL, Gifted) provides teachers with no-prep stress! Building Lasting Habits, Not Just Raising Awareness – This journal is based on neuroscience principles, specifically the Habit Loop framework, which teaches kids HOW behavior changes within the brain — therefore they can establish long-term environmental habits to implement after the conclusion of the unit. No Eco-Anxiety – Only Eco-Empowerment – Constructivist pedagogy does not endorse guilt-based teaching practices to educate/expose students to environmental issues. Instead, students are encouraged to view themselves as environmental scientists, thereby creating a sense of worth/empowerment as opposed to being seen as passive victims of "climate doom"; hence, all resources provided in this unit have been designed with both emotional safety and motivation in mind. Cross-Curricular and Standards-Aligned Value – When you purchase this journal as a single resource, you are actually replacing multiple separate resources. This one journal covers multiple areas of study related to environmental science, data analysis, persuasive writing, behavioral psychology, economics, and systems thinking — therefore you are maximizing the instructional value and curriculum alignment of numerous subject areas! TARGET GRADES/CLASSES: On evaluating for the content type's level of complexity, the level of language used, the level of math skill needed; and how to teach the content using scaffolding: Primary Target 6th, 7th, and 8th grades (Middle School, our primary audience) Science classes; Environmental Science/ Earth Science Health and Wellness Classes Social Studies/Civics (Circular economy, EPR Policy) ELA Classes (Persuasive writing, Informational text) Secondary Target 5th Grade (Upper Elementary, with teacher scaffolded materials to be used; will require the use of Phase 3 differentiation strategies). 4th Grade (Will require major support in accordance with Phase 3 differentiation, as mentioned in Section 2) 9th Grade (High School, Environmental Science as a remedial unit or an introductory unit) Special Programs Gifted/Honors programs (Students in 8th grade, extension Activities) IEP/504 Accommodations (explicitly provide support through IEP/504) ELL Programs (provide bilingual glossary strategies) Environmental clubs (5th through 9th grade) STEM/STEAM programs Best Audience Targets: Middle School Science teachers (6th to 8th grade) Environmental Science Teachers Parents of Students 10 - 14 taking homeschool classes School Librarians purchasing Sustainability books for their library collection After School Program Coordinators Eco-Conscious Parents with Interest in Supplement Learning Your use of this Resource Agreement: Copyright (or Terms of Use) Copyright is held by Syed Hammad Rizvi.

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).

Alkali Metals Concept Wheel – Interactive Chemistry Activity for Grade
STEM, Science, Chemistry, Physics, Life Sciences, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities, Games, Worksheets & Printables, Quizzes and Tests, Teacher Tools, Worksheets, Flashcards, Projects, Presentations, Graphic Organizers
Alkali Metals Concept Wheel – Interactive Chemistry Activity for Grades 7–10 Learn Alkali Metals - visual learning 🧪🧠 This concept wheel is a practical way to help students understand the alkali metals in Group 1 of the periodic table. I first made it for a grade 8 class that was struggling with the idea of chemical families. Instead of giving them another chart to copy, I tried this wheel activity, and it worked much better because they could see and handle the information piece by piece. The wheel has eight sections that cover the basics: general properties, reactivity, how these elements appear in nature, and some everyday uses. Students cut out and arrange the pieces to build the full circle. The activity takes a little bit of preparation, but once the pieces are made, you can reuse them. I usually store the sets in small envelopes so they are ready for the next lesson. There are different versions included. Some circles are already filled in, which is helpful when introducing the topic for the first time. Others are blank, so students can write their own notes after a lab or reading assignment. I have used the blank ones during review sessions, and students liked comparing their wheels with a partner’s version. It also gives them a sense of ownership over the material. The wheel can be used in many ways: as a warm-up before a lab, as practice during a unit on the periodic table, or as a review before a quiz. It works for group tasks, but I have also had students complete it on their own. When the wheels are finished, they make a clear visual display for the classroom or for a student’s notebook. This activity is designed for grades 7–10 chemistry or physical science. It supports lessons on periodic trends, classification of elements, and the special role of the alkali metals. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and welcoming learning environment. 🐶

Then, each student will provide their gain or loss which will allow the calculation of your class's average stock performance during the project. [You can project the included table on a board and each student can fill in their gain or loss.] 4. Next, students will find out how the stock market performed on average during the timeframe of the project.
