Less than $5 Pre-K Social Emotional Learning Resources

Are you looking for a fun and engaging way to add classical music to your classroom or homeschool? Classical music has been shown to provide numerous benefits for children, including reducing stress, improving focus and concentration, and increasing creativity. These activities are great for music appreciation and also help build social-emotional skills! Each activity is easy to set up (no glue required!) and a great way to engage students for Valentine's Day.

Listening Buddies sheets feature a piece of classical music with the composer’s name. While the music plays, students draw a scene in the box inspired by the music. They can also explore the feelings and mood of a piece by choosing meaningful keywords that match their listening experience. Students color the listening buddy at the top of the page or you can print the color version.

There are no wrong answers, and no musical training is required. Just print and play! Music is available on YouTube or your preferred streaming service.

This activity pack features one music selection from Sweet February Mindful Listening! Students can color their black & white listening buddy page topper or you can print the color version.

Embark on a 12-month musical journey through time with the Classical Journey Bundle! ♬

Add a touch of mindful music to any season, holiday, or composer unit study. With over 150 categorized classical pieces, the Classical Journey Bundle offers an engaging printable for every occasion. Each month unlocks a curated selection of themed classical music pieces, perfectly paired with a holiday or season!

Use these printable behavior management punch cards to keep track of your students' behaviors through positive reinforcement. Every time a child exhibits a desired behavior, you use a paper punch to make a hole in the card. When all of the holes in the card are punched, the child gets a reward. It is easy to differentiate your classroom behavior management because each child can have their own punch card with their own individualized goals and incentives.

School counselors or behavioral specialists can use these cards to help children work towards goals. They are also great for home use as rewards for doing chores, potty learning or finishing homework.

This set of punch cards has an "outer space" theme and includes ten unique cards.
