This two-session mini-lesson helps a 1st grader replace self-stimulatory behaviors (stimming) with more appropriate self-regulation strategies. Through discussion, engaging activities, and guided practice, the student will learn to recognize their needs and use alternative coping techniques. Each session lasts 20 minutes.

In this 30-minute Tier 1 lesson for 2nd graders, students will learn the difference between tattling and reporting, discovering when it’s important to tell an adult and when it’s best to mind their own business. This skill helps build a respectful classroom community and empowers students to make smart choices about speaking up.
