Lesson Plan

Ready, Set, Pause! Lesson Plan

Students will learn to control impulses and transition smoothly by responding to visual and verbal cues in interactive games, practicing pausing on command and moving safely between activities.

Developing impulse control and smooth transitions helps Kindergarteners focus, follow routines, and reduce classroom disruptions, building confidence and self-regulation skills for the school day.
