Super Self Control

Students will define self-control and learn four strategies (deep breathing, counting to five, asking for help, using words). Through role-play, a group game, and reflection, they will practice these skills and set personal self-control goals.

Developing self-control helps first graders manage impulses and emotions, leading to better focus, fewer disruptions, and stronger friendships. Teaching strategies early equips students to handle challenges and supports a positive classroom environment.
