Lesson Plan
Calm Crew Tools Lesson Plan
Students will identify, explore, and practice simple coping strategies through hands-on worksheets and peer collaboration, building a personal ‘Calm Crew’ toolbox to recognize emotions and self-soothe.
Early exposure to coping tools helps kindergarteners recognize big feelings, manage stress, and develop self-regulation skills that support social-emotional growth and a positive classroom climate.
