Lesson Plan

Why School? Lesson Plan

Students will explore why we go to school through a story, group discussion, drawing, and role-play, practicing sharing ideas and expressing feelings about school.

Introducing the purpose of school early builds excitement, reduces anxiety, and fosters social and communication skills in young learners.
