Lesson Plan

Introducing the School Counselor

Students will meet their school counselor, learn who they are and what they do, practice naming emotions, and build comfort by creating a greeting card.

Introducing the counselor in a fun, interactive way builds trust, helps children feel safe seeking support, and fosters positive emotional well-being in school.
