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 the New Year in January.

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 January Mindful Listening! Students can color their black & white listening buddy page topper or you can print the color version.

Ancient Egypt slide show project for Egyptian Pharaohs and Gods/Goddesses. Includes a description of project and a rubric.

This project encourages students to choose an SEL topic of their own interest and create a presentation and activity as if they were delivering a lesson on it.

This project allows students to take the format of SEL lessons they've learned from and practice using it themselves to find, understand, and share information. This benefits individual students, as they can explore information of interest, and allows the educator to gauge what topics their students are curious about for future lessons.

If you have students present their lessons they also get practice talking about SEL topics and respectfully listening to peers do the same. I find this to be a great end of year project to wrap up SEL learning.

With presentations this project can be made to take up a whole week of SEL instruction (based on a 30-45 minute period a day). Day 1 students can hand in their topic and activity idea for teacher feedback, days 2-3 students can create the material, and day 4-5 students can present. Examples are simple for clarity and to suit a range of students, but expectations can be adjusted based on grade-level. This project includes a packet with clear instructions (with examples) and space for students to write their chosen topic and activity, an example slideshow, and two example activities that accompany the slideshow.

This inspiring Christian Easter craft activity provides a meaningful way for children to connect with the resurrection story of Jesus Christ. The project involves dividing a circular template into six segments on the back, where children can thoughtfully select and depict six pivotal events from the Easter narrative using images, text, or a blend of both. This thoughtful arrangement encourages children to delve deeply into the significance of each event.

This Christian-themed Easter craft product offers several compelling benefits that make it a valuable addition to any Christian education setting, whether in a school, Sunday school, or at home:

1. Educational and Spiritual Enrichment: The craft focuses on retelling the Easter story, a central narrative in Christianity that details the resurrection of Jesus Christ. By selecting and illustrating key events, children engage both cognitively and spiritually with the story, enhancing their understanding and retention of these pivotal biblical events.
2. Interactive Learning: The spinner design of the craft encourages interaction. As children rotate the window to reveal each segment, they actively participate in the storytelling process. This hands-on approach caters to various learning styles, particularly kinesthetic learners who benefit from physical activities tied to learning.
3. Creative Expression: The project allows for creative expression through the decoration of the craft elements. This not only makes the learning process enjoyable but also allows children to express their interpretation and feelings about the Easter story through art.

This is a fun way to close up your Life Cycle lesson.

This product includes:

• Model cut-outs in black and white
