Stress Snapshot Plan

Students will identify personal stress triggers, reflect on current feelings, and practice breathing and grounding techniques to calm their minds. By the end of the session, each student will complete a stress snapshot, map key triggers, participate in a grounding circle, and lead a mindful minute.

Adolescents often lack tools to manage stress; this session builds emotional awareness, fosters peer support, and equips 9th graders with quick, practical strategies for self-regulation under pressure.
