Trace and Colour Number Shape - 3

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

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.

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.
