Lesson Plan
Relaxation Routine Plan
Students will learn and practice simple stretching movements and deep breathing techniques to calm their bodies and focus their minds, culminating in a reflective discussion on how relaxation supports emotional well-being.
Helping 2nd graders develop self-regulation and mindfulness skills promotes a positive classroom atmosphere, reduces stress, and builds lifelong healthy habits for focus and emotional resilience.
