Lesson Plan

Big Deal Little Deal Plan

Students will define and differentiate big deals and little deals in daily situations by sorting scenarios and reflecting on personal experiences, building perspective-taking and emotional regulation skills.

Understanding the difference between big and little deals helps students regulate emotions appropriately, reducing overreactions to minor events and allocating attention to significant issues, fostering healthy emotional development and social perspective-taking.
