Lesson Plan

Bendy Bodies Lesson Plan

Students will explore physical flexibility through guided stretches and mental flexibility by adapting poses, building self-awareness, gross motor skills, and flexible thinking in a fun, 30-minute Kindergarten session.

Developing physical and mental flexibility helps young learners gain confidence, body awareness, and a growth mindset—key foundations for social-emotional learning and academic success.
