Lesson Plan

Spark Starter Session

Students will develop skills to anticipate the consequences of their choices by brainstorming possible outcomes, discussing real-life scenarios, and reflecting on past decisions through guided journaling.

Understanding potential outcomes helps students make thoughtful, responsible decisions, reduces impulsive actions, and builds lifelong decision-making skills in and out of the classroom.
