Lesson Plan
Rise and Shine Routine Plan
Students will learn and sequence the seven-step morning routine—wake up, go potty, eat breakfast, get changed, brush teeth, put shoes on, and get backpack—using engaging picture cards to build independence and confidence.
Establishing a consistent morning routine helps Pre-K learners develop self-management skills, eases transitions, and fosters independence, reducing anxiety and morning chaos.
