Lesson Plan

Identity Exploration Blueprint

Students will define self-awareness, identify personal strengths, values, and emotions, and articulate them with confidence through interactive reflection activities.

Building self-awareness in 4th graders boosts their confidence, emotional regulation, and decision-making, laying the groundwork for positive social and academic growth.
