Define mindful scrolling in simple terms. Emphasize paying attention to feelings and taking breaks when needed.

Invite students to share positive aspects of social media they’ve experienced. Record their ideas under a “Benefits” column on the whiteboard.

Introduce the chart. Explain how to use it during group work to map posts to feelings.

Explain the group task. Hand out the worksheet and remind them to use the Feelings Chart.

Bring students back together. Ask each group to share one scenario and its key triggers. Write them on the board.

Guide students through brainstorming. Encourage creative and concrete strategies.
