Lesson Plan

Sunrise Spark Lesson Plan

Engage 2nd graders in a structured 45-minute morning routine that builds community, energizes bodies and minds, and fosters positive social connections before academic blocks.

Starting the day with low-stakes social interaction and movement sets a positive tone, develops listening and speaking skills, and eases students into learning by boosting mood and classroom cohesion.
