Unlock Your Emotional Superpower Lesson Plan
Over six 30-minute sessions, high school students will learn to identify emotions, practice regulation skills (breathing, reframing, grounding, self-talk), and create a personalized coping plan.
Adolescents face stressors that can overwhelm them without healthy coping tools. Structured practice of emotional regulation reduces distress, improves focus, and builds resilience.
