Trace and Colour Number Shape - 3
, Not Grade Specific,
Repeated numeral forms give young learners several opportunities to attend to the shape of three on one uncluttered page. The outlines can be traced with a pencil, followed with a finger, or filled using crayons or markers according to the teacher's chosen routine. Because no counting objects or quantity model is visible, the activity specifically supports numeral-shape recognition and fine-motor practice rather than number-set counting.

Traffic Light Feelings – SEL Self-Regulation Lesson
, Not Grade Specific,
In this 7-slide Google Slides Lesson Presentation, students will learn about the Traffic Light Feelings. This is a self-regulation tool that helps students identify when they are being unsafe, have a big emotion, and need to stop. Red feelings are feelings that are BIG such as really angry, scared, unsafe, or out of control. Students will learn the phrase STOP, SLOW AND GO strategy. The yellow light represents feelings that are silly, excited, worried, stressed, or frustrated. The green light represents feelings that are good for class, with peers in the class or when they need to focus on a task. There is a sorting activity with 18 sorting cards. Some of the scenarios on the cards are; kids who are too excited and silly with their parent, a child who is very upset and visibly crying, 2 kids arguing, 2 kids fighting, a child who is calm, a child who is reading, a child who is proud about graduating, a child who is raising their hand, a child in their own personal space bubble, a child who is frustrated about breaking a toy, a child who is thinking, a child who is running from a crocodile, children who are jumping in excitement, a child scared about talking in front of an audience, etc. First, you can show the 7 slide presentation with animations throughout the presentation. Next, the students will work in partners/group to do the sorting activity. They will get a sorting sheet and 18 cards. Print off a sorting sheet and 18 cards for each partnership/group. Lastly, invite students back at their own desk to colour in their traffic light colouring sheet and think of the different feelings represented in each light. There are 7 slides in the presentation for the class and there are 5 slides that contain the sorting activity, sorting cards, and colouring sheet.

Transportation Names Worksheet
, Not Grade Specific,
How Do We Get There? develops transportation vocabulary through picture-word identification. Learners examine each image and choose its label from a printed bank that includes land, air, water, and walking options. They then write the transportation word beside the corresponding picture, reinforcing spelling as well as recognition. Because the set contains less common choices alongside familiar vehicles, the word bank supports precise naming and can lead to sorting by environment, engine use, or number of passengers.

Tree ID Activity – Identify Common Trees Game
, Not Grade Specific,
Tree ID Activity builds botanical observation through a three-part matching challenge. Learners compare fruit, tree, and leaf images for several common species and connect the corresponding examples. The guidance suggests using the activity during a science lesson about comparing trees or after study as an assessment, including autumn instruction. A completed matching page supports review. The resource encourages attention to leaf shape, fruit type, and the relationship among multiple visible features rather than relying on one clue.

Unit Lesson Plan Template
, Not Grade Specific,
Unit Lesson Plan organizes a themed sequence into three parallel planning strands. For each objective, the teacher can name an instructional activity and the assessment that will show whether the goal was met. Keeping objectives, learning experiences, and checks for understanding visibly aligned helps expose gaps before instruction begins. The single-page overview is useful for sketching a short unit, comparing the balance of its components, or discussing the plan with a teaching partner before creating daily lesson details.

Using Conjunctions Worksheet
, Not Grade Specific,
The worksheet demonstrates that conjunctions connect related ideas, then supplies four two-sentence pairs. Learners select the conjunction whose relationship fits the meanings and rewrite each pair as one sentence. The choices represent contrast, condition, time limit, and result, so correct use depends on interpreting the relationship rather than inserting any connector mechanically. A completed second page supports review of both word choice and sentence integration.

Using Pictures as Context Clues Worksheet
, Not Grade Specific,
Using Pictures as Context Clues asks readers to examine both words and artwork when building understanding. A short narrative excerpt appears with an illustration, followed by prompts about the illustrator’s choices and the extra information conveyed visually. Students must move beyond identifying objects in the picture and articulate how those details clarify an event, setting, action, or unfamiliar idea. The page supports evidence-based discussion before learners write a concise explanation of the picture-text relationship.

Verbs Anchor Chart – Grammar Reference for K–3
, Not Grade Specific,
A three-chart verb-tense reference tracks five action words — jump, help, skip, hop, and climb — across past, present, and future form, showing the -ed, -s/-es, -ing, and will-plus-verb patterns that build each tense. The first chart is fully filled in for direct reference or classroom display. The second repeats the same layout with key endings blanked out for students to complete themselves. The third chart is left entirely blank, giving a template for building a matching drill around a different verb list.

Vitamins and Minerals word search, scramble and crossword puzzle
, Not Grade Specific,
The vocabulary includes several vitamins and dietary minerals associated with vision, immunity, bones, blood, energy metabolism, muscles, nerves, and thyroid function.

The resource supplies brief associations rather than dietary advice, and this description makes no individualized nutrition or medical claim.

Voice Volume Thermometer Activity
, Not Grade Specific,
The activity teaches voice regulation through a five-position thermometer and a collection of everyday scenarios. Learners distinguish very quiet, quiet, conversational, and overly loud levels, then consider settings such as a library, lesson, small group, shop line, bank, playground, and emergency. Several thermometer designs repeat the same scale for different display preferences. The scenario work asks children to match volume with context rather than treating one level as appropriate everywhere.

Ways to Make a Number
, Not Grade Specific,
The raster-led page appears to invite learners to identify or create combinations representing the same whole. Visual groups and number markings support counting, composing, or decomposing, but the exact target and directions are not reliably established in readable text. Claims therefore remain limited to flexible number-making practice. Visual review is required before specifying the target value, item count, or expected response method.

Weather Fill in the Blank Worksheet
, Not Grade Specific,
Eight available weather terms that describe electrical storms, light frozen precipitation, reduced visibility, air moisture, heavy rain, and wind. Learners read each sentence, infer the condition from contextual clues, and transfer the best-fitting word into the blank. Because all options belong to one topic, success depends on precise meaning rather than recognizing a broad category. The page includes no completed responses, picture bank, or open research task.

Weather Matching Pictures Worksheet
, Not Grade Specific,
The page lists five weather adjectives and presents five visual conditions to be paired with them. Learners draw matches between printed vocabulary and image cues rather than generating spellings independently. The selection includes two kinds of precipitation, a temperature condition, and a cloud-cover condition, requiring attention to distinct visual evidence. Its compact format suits introductory vocabulary review, while the evidence does not support claims about a separate key or extended writing component.

Weather Names Worksheet – Vocabulary Practice
, Not Grade Specific,
The worksheet supplies ten weather terms and a corresponding set of pictures. Learners identify each image and write the matching weather word, moving from visual observation to precise vocabulary. The bank includes several forms of precipitation, degrees of cloudiness, calm or windy conditions, and severe-weather imagery, so choices require more detail than a simple good-weather or bad-weather distinction. No completed page accompanies the task.
