Decisions Matter Lesson Plan

Students will read a social story about making wise choices, identify decision points, practice real-life scenarios through role-play, and reflect on outcomes to strengthen decision-making skills.

Effective decision-making supports social-emotional growth, helps students anticipate consequences, and fosters self-confidence in academic and personal situations.
