Lesson Plan
Feelings Rescue Mission
Students will learn to identify tough emotions and build a personal “feelings toolbox” of coping strategies they can use in stressful situations.
Helping 4th graders recognize and manage strong feelings fosters self-awareness, reduces classroom disruptions, and equips them with lifelong emotional regulation skills.
