Lesson Plan
Pause Power Lesson Plan
Students will learn to identify impulses, apply the "Pause Power" self-control strategy to real-life scenarios, and practice impulse management. By the end, each student can name at least two techniques and demonstrate them through guided role-play.
Developing self-control empowers students to make better choices, improve relationships, and achieve academic success by managing impulses in everyday situations.
