Lesson Plan

Weather-Emotion Mapping Plan

Students will recognize and articulate at least two emotions by mapping them to weather patterns and share their insights in a supportive group setting.

Building emotional literacy and self-awareness helps ninth graders manage feelings, communicate needs, and foster peer support—key skills for mental well-being.
