Mindful M3 (SEL) - General Evaluation Form

Step 4: The Pilot Evaluation Form

This work is still in draft form—unfinished, evolving, and in need of your thoughtful eyes. Time is of the essence. The challenges children face are not waiting, and the truth is, they needed tools like this yesterday.

You may notice that some of the material, at first sight, appears advanced for 4th grade — for example, lessons on subjectivity and objectivity. In practice, however, I have taught these same lessons to a 4th grade class by using the simple language of 'facts and feelings.' Each student was able to write a short story about a food experience using both facts and feelings in their sentences, and then we shared and discussed them together. The children didn’t need to master the concept — the point was to stretch their thinking, expand their growth mindset, and introduce them to the idea that they are capable of much more than conventional pedagogy often assumes.

As you complete this evaluation form, please focus on:
- Content clarity
- Flow and engagement
- Usability for educators and parents
- Ways to make it more game-like and experiential

18. Would you recommend this curriculum to another educator or parent? Why or why not?

19. If you were to put a value or price on this curriculum, what would you consider fair and reasonable? Please explain your reasoning (for example, comparing to similar curriculums, the amount of content, or the potential impact on children).

20. What could I add to the value or price. We are looking at a trading card game of the Neuroids

21. Any final thoughts, comments, or creative ideas you’d like to share?

Section Eight: Testimonial & Special Notes

Would you be willing to share a short quote or comment that I could use (with your permission) for future marketing? Even though this is an unfinished work, any testimonial you can offer will help me move this project forward.

A personal note: I have a lot to learn about marketing and how to bring a curriculum like this to the public on the scale I am hoping to do. If you know anyone who could help with the business, marketing, or branding side of this vision, it would mean the world to me if you would connect us.
