Recess Ready Lesson Plan

Students will learn and practice expected recess behaviors through a personalized social story, guided discussion, and role‐play to build social understanding and ease transitions.

Kindergarteners often feel anxious about unstructured play; this targeted session boosts confidence, reduces behavioral challenges, and supports positive social interactions during recess.
