Lesson Plan

Self-Discovery Lab Plan

Students will rotate through four hands-on lab stations to explore emotions, test personal strengths, and build self-concept, then articulate insights in a written reflection to enhance self-awareness.

Building self-awareness helps students recognize and manage emotions, boosts confidence through identifying strengths, and lays the foundation for emotional intelligence and healthy decision-making.
