Lesson Plan

Heart-to-Heart Planning

In a 30-minute session, parents and 3rd graders collaborate to create a personalized Daily Calm Plan, practice emotion reflection, review self-regulation success criteria, and establish a routine for ongoing feedback at home.

Building self-regulation at home supports emotional resilience and academic focus. This toolkit empowers families with clear strategies, reflection prompts, and measurable criteria to foster consistent growth and confidence in children.
