Kindness & Gratitude Daily Reflection Journals
Special Resources, Life Skills, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Social Skills, Special Education Needs (SEN), Speech Therapy, STEM, Resources for Teachers, Classroom Management, Community Building, Kindergarten, Grade 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Worksheets & Printables, Workbooks, Worksheets, Word Searches, Teacher Tools, Lesson Plans, Presentations, Quizzes and Tests, Quizzes, Tests
With the Kindness and Gratitude Daily Reflection Journals (e.g K-5), you have the ability to turn your classroom or home into a center of kindness and emotional intelligence. This wonderful curriculum is a complete forty-three page pdf that contains research-based information from the fields of child development, affective neuroscience, and Somatic-Cognitive Integration Methodology as well as ten student worksheets that are ready for live implementation, and teacher implementation resources. This resource is designed specifically for classrooms with student populations from Kindergarten to 5th grade and is built on the facilitation of social skills through three developmental tiers: K-1: Sensory and Affective Identification (visual prompts/drawing) 2-3: Relational Reciprocation and Theory of Mind 4-5: Complex Systems (Ripple Effect) Thinking, and Intrinsic Altruism Through this curriculum, students will become "Kindness Detectives", engage in an Action-Reflection Cycle, create a map of gratitude through various ecosystems, develop their resilience using silver-lining prompts, and implement acts of altruism through a "Kindness Architect" blueprint. In addition, the curriculum includes theory around neuroplasticity, case studies of real-world use that show 42% drop in conflicts in the morning and 60% increase of student feeling "seen and valued", structural schematics (SVG format), differentiation strategies for reluctant learners, and a complete Teacher Implementation Guide. The Kindness Journals are perfect to use in morning meeting times, social/emotional learning blocks, restorative justice, homeschooling, or guidance/counseling sessions. This zero-preparation curriculum is available as a digital download, and you can easily print the material or assign the material digitally. The Kindness Journals can help increase emotional granularity, empathy, and an overall positive class culture within your classroom, while also providing a resource that supports SEL competencies as developed by CASEL. The reason teachers and parents are happy using this program: Results are measurable! Real-life classroom studies show that using the academic curriculum has decreased morning conflict by 42% and has helped 60% of the children who take part be recognized and appreciated. Both parents and teachers see these changes immediately! There is little preparation time needed to use the academic program. There are 10 ready-to-use worksheets and a teacher's guide with supportive materials for you to be able to use this program right now without spending any time preparing. The academic curriculum has been designed to have the ability to grow as the child grows, from drawing pictures in Kindergarten and First Grade to developing a sense of right and wrong in Fourth and Fifth grade. This ensures that each child in the room is able to be challenged and feel successful through the entire academic experience. The academic program uses what's called mirror neurons, neuroplasticity, and body language to ensure children will exhibit kindness as a daily behavior rather than as a rule. The academic program teaches children to look internally for their own feelings and authentic emotions as opposed to focusing on external rewards or expectations (performative kindness). The result of this process helps to create a child with a higher level of empathy and emotional resilience. Who this is for : This document has been created specifically for K-5 students (ages 5-11). It's not right for Pre-K (the material is too advanced) or Middle School./ For grades K-5, the three-level scaffolding aligns directly with elementary learner neuro-developmental stages., making this resource a match for the following categories of K-5 educators: -General education elementary classrooms (Grades K-5) -Families who homeschool their children -School Counselors / Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) Coordinators -Special education / inclusive classrooms (differentiated activities provided) . -After school program or character education clubs .

Who Has It? – Chemical Elements Game (1–118) – 3 Levels of Differentia
STEM, Science, Chemistry, Physics, Life Sciences, Earth and Environmental Sciences, Basic Science, Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Special Education Needs (SEN), Homeschool Templates, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, Activities, Games, Worksheets & Printables, Task Cards, Quizzes and Tests, Teacher Tools, Quizzes, Worksheets, Projects, Flashcards
Who Has It? – Chemical Elements Game (1–118) – 3 Levels of Differentiation A cooperative chemistry card game for grades 7–10 to review atomic numbers, element names, and symbols 🧪🎯 This resource is a classroom game that helps students become more confident with the chemical elements – from hydrogen to oganesson. The game follows the well-known “I have… who has?” format and is designed to reinforce students’ understanding of element names, symbols, and atomic numbers in a playful and interactive way. To support different learning levels, the material includes three differentiated versions of the full game, each with 118 element cards: With element names for both question and answer (beginner level) Only the “I have…” part includes the name , the question uses the symbol/number (intermediate level) Without element names – players must match based on symbol and atomic number alone (advanced level) Each version builds on the last and can be used flexibly depending on students' prior knowledge. The game works best with medium to large groups and encourages students to listen carefully, stay engaged, and support one another. What’s included: 3 full card sets (118 cards per set = 354 total) Differentiated by content and level of language support Clear instructions for printing, laminating, and use Ideal for individual, pair, or group work How I use it in class: I’ve played this game both at the end of a chemistry unit and as a fun opener when starting the periodic table. It’s also perfect for substitute lessons or for classes with mixed ability levels. Since each student needs to be ready when their card comes up, it fosters attention and collaboration. This is one of those games where learning happens almost by accident – students are so focused on playing that they internalize atomic numbers and symbols without even noticing. A simple, engaging way to bring structure, repetition, and movement into chemistry class – no extra prep needed. If you're looking for an easy way to help students become more confident with the periodic table, this might be worth trying in your classroom. Best, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know?

High School Decoding the Shadows: The Evolution of Criminal Profiling
Reading, ELA, Writing, Research, Resources for Teachers, Science, Technology, Homeschool Resources, High School, Teacher Tools, Assessments, Quizzes and Tests, Lesson Plans, Worksheets & Printables, Writing Prompts
As a homeschool mom of a high schooler, you know the struggle of finding that unique and engaging resource. As both a homeschool mom and a resource creator, I designed this study into the history of criminal profiling to move past dry textbooks and get into the real "human truth" of how justice works, tracing the path from Victorian-era "gut feelings" to the sophisticated forensic discipline used today. It is a wild journey that shows our students/homeschoolers how investigators transitioned from looking only at physical clues to decoding the actual psychology of a suspect. By the time they finish, your student/homeschooler will understand how a crime scene is often just a mirror of a killer’s internal state; I have kept the content rigorous enough for high school credit, but paced it like a story they will actually want to keep reading. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: A narrative tracing profiling from its 19th-century roots to modern FBI methods. A clear breakdown of "organized" vs. "disorganized" offender profiles. Real-world looks at Jack the Ripper, the "Mad Bomber," and even the profiling of Hitler. A full bibliography featuring foundational works by John Douglas and Robert Ressler. TOPICS COVERED: Moving from physical evidence to decoding a suspect's motivations. How clinical expertise first entered active police investigations. The formalization of evidence-based profiling at the FBI Academy. Using behavioral tracking for cold cases and modern cybercrime. I hope this resource helps your student/homeschooler see that profiling is a living, breathing field that is constantly evolving—using everything from data analytics to modern forensic psychology to crack even the toughest cold cases. As a fellow homeschool mom, I know how important it is to show our students/homeschoolers that even though profiling has faced its fair share of critics, it remains an essential tool for investigators when they hit a wall. As technology advances, our ability to get inside a criminal's head only gets more precise. This journey from "armchair" theories to the high-tech halls of the FBI's Behavioral Science Unit is really a story about our human drive to understand the unthinkable; it is a great reminder that while science handles the hard facts, profiling is what actually helps us uncover the "human truth" behind the crime. If you and your students/homeschoolers enjoyed this resources, please leave a review. Thank you for your support! Tina - Big Easy Homeschooling Mom

Take a journey the incredible world of fungi with this High School Science Fungi Life Cycle resource! As a homeschool mom who's passionate about quality science education, I created this reading passage and note-taking sheets with your biology students in mind – whether you're teaching in a traditional classroom or at your kitchen table like I do. Instead of drowning our kids in boring technical jargon, I have wrapped key mycological concepts in stories and explanations they will actually want to read (trust me, I have tested these on my own teenager daugther!), all while maintaining scientific integrity. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: ✔️10-page comprehensive reading passage with advanced mycological concepts ✔️20 challenging critical thinking questions with complete answer key ✔️Detailed note-taking sheets TOPICS COVERED: ✔️Plant Reproductive Cycles: Alternation of Generations and Seed Structure ✔️Germination: Molecular Regulation, Hormonal Control, and Dormancy Mechanisms ✔️Vegetative Growth Patterns and Meristematic Activity ✔️Flower Development: Genetic Basis, Floral Induction, and Pollination Ecology ✔️Fertilization Processes: Double Fertilization and Endosperm Development ✔️Ecological Dynamics: Seed Dispersal Strategies and Climate Change Impacts Your students/homeschoolers will get genuinely excited learning how fungi reproduce through fascinating processes like spore dispersal and hyphal networks, examine their unique structures up-close, and discover why these overlooked organisms are absolute superstars in practically every ecosystem. The reading passage flows naturally into questions and activities that encourage real critical thinking – no mindless worksheet filling here! I developed this resource because I believe our high schoolers/homeschoolers deserve science education that respects their intelligence and nurtures their curiosity. The content hits that sweet spot—deep enough to prepare them for college-level biology without overwhelming them. Beyond just teaching facts, these materials foster genuine appreciation for organisms most people walk right past. From the antibiotics in our medicine cabinets to the bread on our tables and the hidden networks beneath forest floors, fungi shape our world in remarkable ways. By connecting concepts to real life, I hope to spark a curiosity in your students that lasts long after the unit ends, just as I've seen happen with my own children.

Guided Reading Level K - The World of Goats (with Lesson Plan)

This Guided Reading Book - The World of Goats (Level K) with lesson plan includes: Guided Reading Color Label (front cover x1) This is a quick way to match the book’s demands to what students can generally handle.. The overall goal is to use the level/color to pick books for several smaller groups. To qualify for a certain level, a student is expected to read a book from that level with about 90–94% accuracy. If a student is consistently accurate and understands, move up a level. If the student is struggling at that level, drop down and add more support. Each student will improve at completely different rates, but it is generally one of the best ways to check progress across the class. DOWNLOAD THE CATALOG TO VIEW ALL GUIDED READING BOOKS AVAILABLE (SORTED LEVELS A-Z) Pre-Reading Question (x1) Teacher asks the prompt aloud, can be while showing the cover or first page. Students share what they already know, or make educated guesses from the cover. Prompt them to use the target vocabulary. Write some of their responses on the board to look back at during the reading. Vocabulary Words (x5) Introduce the five words, best doing it one at a time. Start by saying it, while students repeat and then see if anyone knows what it means before reading further. Read through the meaning and try to briefly connect each word to a picture or gesture so it’s meaningful. Ask students to flip through the book pages and point to where they see each of the vocabulary words. While reading the book pause upon coming across one of the vocab words or read the sentence twice to make sure students understand the word has appeared. Optional: Ask students to raise hands whenever they see/hear one of the new words. Guided Reading Pages (x10) Check the book snapshot (below) for: primary topic - do you need to prep extra reading or intro materials on this? what is taught best - decide on 1-2 bullets to focus on, use the prompt or words provided here for best results. learning goals - what you are checking for students to be able to do after the session, elicit answers using prompts or words provided. key vocabulary (see section above). questions overview - so you know what is coming up and if you need to prep extra materials to assist understanding. Run the lesson You may have already looked at a few of the pages together, but you can show them some of the pictures again first to set meaning. Depending on how much time you have and how familiar your students are with guided reading class, you may want to read the book aloud first with the group first. Students whisper or partner read, while you listen in. If time, do it as a group, one student reading a page each. Use the guided page’s prompts to coach: “Check the picture / does it make sense?” “Point under the words / try the first sound” “Reread the sentence smoothly”. Try to focus more on one student per session (rotating every time), so you can work out if they are ready to move up or need to move down a level. Comprehension Questions (back cover x3) This is your way to check that students didn’t just say the words, but actually understood the text. First, let students answer by pointing to the page/picture and saying a short sentence. After any answer, follow with: “Show me where you found that in the text.” In bigger groups, have partners answer first (10–20 seconds), then call on 2–3 students to share. Differentiation tips: Emerging speakers/struggling readers: oral + pointing On-level: oral in a full sentence Higher: one written sentence or draw + label Book Snapshot Title: The World of Goats Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Life Science + Reading (Informational Text) Primary Topic: Goat traits, behaviors, and how they help Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): K What This Book Teaches Best Describes goats as “smart and curious” animals that live in many places around the world. Explains body parts that help goats move and stay safe (horns, hooves, and special eyes that help them “see all around”). Teaches what goats eat by defining them as “herbivores” and naming plants they munch on (grass, leafy bushes, bark). Highlights goat abilities and behaviors (climbing steep, rocky cliffs; kids running and jumping; goats playing and gently bumping heads). Connects goats to farm life by stating they provide milk and wool. Learning Goals Students will identify key goat traits and behaviors described in the text. Students will explain how horns and hooves help goats, using details from the text. Students will describe how a goat’s special eyes help it stay safe. Students will explain what herbivores eat and list plants goats munch on from the text. Students will describe how goats communicate and what a “bleat” can help a mother goat do. Students will describe how goats can be helpful to people on a farm, according to the text. Key Vocabulary From the Text curious — wanting to learn more by exploring. hooves — hard feet that help goats walk. rectangles — shapes with four sides and four corners. herbivores — animals that eat only plants. bleat — the sound a goat makes. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: What features might help goats live in different places? Comprehension questions: How do a goat’s special eyes help it stay safe? Comprehension questions: What kinds of plants does the book say goats like to munch on? Comprehension questions: Why do goats gently bump their heads when they play together? Printing Tips 1. Best Printing Method (Recommended) “Booklet” Printing (Best if Available) If your printer or PDF viewer supports Booklet Printing , use this. Settings to use: Print mode: Booklet Paper size: Letter or A4 (either works) Orientation: Landscape Print on both sides: Yes Flip on: Short edge Scaling: Fit to printable area Booklet subset: First test: Front sides only Then: Back sides only This will automatically: Pair pages correctly Put the cover on the outside Align everything for folding After printing, fold in half and staple along the spine . 2. If “Booklet” Printing Is NOT Available You can still print this correctly with manual duplex printing . Step-by-step: Open the PDF. Choose Print . Set: Orientation: Landscape Pages per sheet: 1 Print on both sides: Yes Flip on: Short edge Print all pages . Because each PDF page already contains two facing book pages, the result will still fold cleanly into a book. Thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership.

It is also appropriate for advanced 8th graders attending middle school life skills sessions and/or pre-high school financial literacy programs; however, this workbook is not appropriate for elementary/middle school because much of the content assumes students in these grades can: - Receive a paycheck. - Get a credit card. - Make decisions about going to college or trade school.

This hiking 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. 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: Hiking Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Health / Physical Education Primary Topic: What hiking is, its history, and staying safe Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): Q What This Lesson Teaches Best Defines hiking as “more than a stroll” and describes what hiking feels like on a trail or footpath. Explains how walking shifted from serious reasons (like religious pilgrimages) to walking for pleasure and adventure. Describes how trails needed signs, maps, and protection as hiking grew, including work to build and maintain the Appalachian Trail. Teaches basic hiking safety and preparedness (boots/shoes, backpack supplies, and the “Ten Essentials” such as a compass and first-aid kit). Names risks hikers can face when weather shifts or routes disappear, including dehydration and hypothermia. Learning Goals Students will describe what hiking is using details from the passage. Students will explain why people walked long ago and how walking for pleasure grew later. Students will identify why trails needed signs, maps, and protection as more people hiked. Students will describe what the passage says about the Appalachian Trail (where it stretches and how long it is). Students will list items hikers pack to “stay alert” and connect them to safety. Students will name risks mentioned in the text that can affect hikers’ bodies. Key Vocabulary From the Text pilgrimages — long journeys taken for religious reasons. destinations — places people want to go or visit. organizations — groups that work together for a purpose. dehydration — not enough water in the body. hypothermia — when the body gets too cold.

In this resource, you will get an engaging game like Apples To Apples. There are 36 strategy cards and 18 situation cards. This is an SEL game. Each person takes a turn with being the judge like Apples to Apples. It is important to make enough sets for the number of groups who will be playing. for example, I recommend at least 3-5 people playing together for each group. So if there are 20 students, then create at least 5 different sets of the cards, Then follow the directions for the game below: First, everyone gets 5 strategy cards. There is no revealing the cards to other players. Then one person is chosen to be the "judge" for the first round. I usually pick the oldest person to make it fair. The judge reveals the card to all and even can read the card out loud. The the other players choose one of their strategy cards to handle that particular situation. Then the judge decides which one they would use. Important; there is not right or wrong here, just what one person would do in that situation. Next the next player goes (usually counter clockwise) to who will be the judge. The person will reveal the situation and the other players will play their strategy card. Play as long as time allows. Next, you can print off the mindfulness coloring sheets for students to color and reinforce the idea or coloring mindfully when they are upset, frustrate, need some time alone, etc. There is a way to change the word and position of the word in the mindfulness coloring sheet. These are SEL coloring pages.
