Lesson Plan

Trust Fall Overview

Students will build trust and collaboration by engaging in guided warm-up exercises and paired activities, then reflect on communication and empathy skills through group debrief.

Trust underpins effective teamwork and classroom community. These activities give 9th graders hands-on practice in reliance, clear communication, and mutual support in a safe environment.
