Lesson Plan
Mindful Moments Plan
Students will learn and practice deep-breathing and mindfulness strategies to manage stress and build self-regulation during challenges, engaging in a guided breathing exercise, playful bubble activity, and a cool-down reflection.
Teaching mindfulness empowers students to recognize and manage their emotions, reducing anxiety, improving focus, and fostering a calm classroom environment. These skills support academic and social-emotional growth.
