Lesson Plan
Waiting Wizards Lesson Plan
Students will practice patience through guided waiting games and a creative craft activity. They will learn to wait quietly, follow instructions, and reflect on how waiting helps develop self-control and social skills.
Patience is a crucial social-emotional skill that helps children manage emotions, take turns, and engage positively with peers. Early practice of waiting builds self-regulation, reduces frustration, and supports a calm learning environment for Pre-K students.
