How can you use these task cards?

• Have the task cards available in makerspaces, centers, tubs, busy boxes, morning baskets, or available for early finishers to complete using ANY available materials. Students can even draw their creations instead of building them!

• Use one card a day during morning time. Have students fill out a STEAM / STEM worksheet or discuss and use the Google Slides as a class.

• Use them for public speaking practice. Allow students to build and then show and tell with the class or their parents. They can discuss what they made, liked, what they would improve, and how it solved the problem on the task cards. They can practice speaking and listening skills, using loud and clear voices, and giving full attention to the speaker. Encourage students to ask questions to their classmates.

• Ideally the goal is to do one challenge a day, but you could certainly allow students to do more than one.

**********************************************************

Why do I think you will love this product, and what makes my challenge set unique?

I love silly stories that bring humor and adventure to life for kids, but also that force them to use their imaginations in fun and exciting ways. This challenge task set does exactly that through the loose wacky stories where they are the main character. Silly scenarios, adventure and disaster, problem solving, and learning, are all part of the experience when building these challenges.

Most building challenge task cards are independent from each other. “Build a boat,” or “build an airplane,” are common themes among the cards. While those are fantastic, and we have done many of them ourselves, I wanted to do something different and more cohesive and engaging for kids.

The only rule is to HAVE FUN and allow those imaginations to soar!

**Please note that while the intent is for these to be independent, early readers may need some assistance in reading the cards.**

**This is not an editable document.**

This creative Geometric Shapes Collage: Art Unit was designed to be printed and displayed as examples while you teach. Use this Google Slide file to display these beautiful images one-by-one on the big screen. For this assignment, I asked students to make a Geometric Shapes Collage showing squares, rectangles, triangles, and/or circles. Students get to choose three of their favorite colors to work with. Students choose which colors go on top the base color papers. Students learned folding, cutting, gluing, and placing (overlapping) skills during this 1-to-2-Day Art Unit. Students shared their artworks on display inside the Art Gallery. I hope you and your kiddos love this! Enjoy!

“Pop” your student’s anger with this creative and cute calming strategies activity! This self-regulation activity includes seven versions of a 3D coping skills foldable activity. These cut-and-fold activities are quick to prep, easy to assemble, and highly effective at teaching calming strategies and emotional regulation skills. 

Encourage students to use their self-assessment skills to look for signs of anger and use anger thermometers to gauge their anger levels. Encourage students to take control of their big emotions by experimenting with various strategies for self-control and emotional regulation until they find the ones that work best for them. 

Empower students to be calm, regulated, and in control. 

Here’s What You’ll Get:

• Directions for the foldable activity assembly
• Four cover options
• Seven inside template options

Students will love this interactive activity that quite literally "pops" up at them. Anger will fade away when the 3D inside component of the foldable pops out at students as they open their foldable. This activity teaches emotional regulation strategies and valuable social-emotional learning skills with a crafty, pop-up, twist. 

Teachers & Counselors Like You Said:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Anetter P. says, “Great but easy craft type activity!  I like to send the students away with something from the counseling office to talk with their teacher or parents about if they chose to so this is perfect.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amanda M. says, “Great activity and kept by boy group engaged.”

This creative Stained-Glass Tree Painting Unit was designed to be printed and displayed as examples while you teach. Use this Google Slide file to display these beautiful images one-by-one on a large screen. For this assignment, I asked students to practice drawing different trees. Next, I taught students how to draw a tree that has branches extending to the edge of the paper. I demonstrated how to outline and fill in the tree. Students created their own stained-glass tree artwork on Final Copy Paper. Students outlined and colored their artwork. Students used mostly watercolor paints for their artwork. I hope you and your kiddos love this! Enjoy.

Teaching students how to make good choices, as well as the difference between good choices and poor choices is crucial. Teach children decision-making skills and how to make good choices with this cut and glue puzzle activity for elementary students. 

This resource includes six cut and glue activity sheets, all featuring different situations. Students cut out the situation puzzle pieces, and sort them based on if they are good or poor choices. They then glue the puzzle pieces into their proper places on their worksheets. 

It is simple, yet highly effective!

For this assignment, I asked students to make an awesome artwork out of a simple “circle”. Students start with a brainstorming circle paper. After brainstorming different circle designs, students choose their favorite for a Final Copy Paper. Art materials could be colored pencils, crayons, watercolor paint, and/or color sharpies. *CONTRAST, PATTERN, REPETITION, MOVEMENT, ETC. This is a 2-3-day assignment.
