Lesson Plan
Counselor Detective Quest Lesson Plan
Students will discover key counselor tools and their uses through a detective-themed guessing game, then practice empathy and teamwork by solving emotion mysteries.
By revealing real counselor tools (tissues, games, breathing cards), students learn how counselors support feelings and friendships and feel more comfortable asking for help.
