Lesson Plan

Sensory Break Station Lesson Plan

Students will engage in a Brain Dance warm-up, explore sensory tools, participate in a guided sensory break, and complete a Mood Meter check-in to build self-regulation and sustain attention during class.

Regular sensory breaks help 2nd graders manage energy, reduce stress, and practice self-awareness, leading to better focus and behavior throughout the day.
