Lesson Plan

Mind Matters Lesson Plan

Students will gain a basic understanding of mental health and learn to identify its importance in everyday life through a combination of video content and guided discussion.

Fostering mental health awareness in early adolescence helps reduce stigma and equips students with the tools to recognize and discuss mental health challenges openly.
