Lesson Plan
My Calm Superpowers Lesson Plan
Students will learn three simple calm-down strategies—deep breathing, counting, and mindful observation—to help them recognize and manage strong emotions during the school day.
Building self-regulation skills early supports emotional awareness, reduces classroom disruptions, and fosters a positive learning environment where children feel empowered to manage big feelings.
