Lesson Plan

Mindful Practice Agenda

Students will engage in quick, guided mindfulness exercises—deep breathing, visualization, and sharing—to reduce stress and boost focus in just one session.

Teaching brief, daily mindfulness helps 3rd graders self-regulate emotions, manage stress, and improve attention—key skills for academic success and mental well-being.
