Lesson Plan
Team-Up Kickoff Lesson Plan
Students will build connections through icebreakers, practice clear role-based introductions in triads, and co-create group expectations to foster a safe, supportive community.
Working in consistent groups of three sharpens collaboration, ensures each student’s voice is heard, and provides targeted support for emotional and language needs.
