Screen Time Superheroes

Welcome students! Today we’re going to become Screen Time Superheroes. Ask: “What are your favorite games or shows on screens?” Use responses to engage. Introduce the idea of balancing screen time with other fun activities.

What Is a Screen Time Superhero?

Explain that a Screen Time Superhero uses screens in healthy ways. Point to the list as you discuss each habit. Ask a few students: “How do you take breaks when you play games?”

Healthy Screen Time Habits

On chart paper, write down habits as students share. Highlight two main tips: setting a timer and mixing in non-screen activities. Ask: “What’s one thing you love to do away from screens?”

Create Your Screen Time Superhero Plan

Distribute the worksheet now. Explain each part: drawing their superhero, writing in morning/afternoon/evening screen times, and coloring. Circulate to support and ask: “Does this plan feel fun and fair?”

Share & Take Home

Invite a few volunteers to share their superhero plans. Praise creative ideas and balanced schedules. Then explain how to share at home: “Show this plan to your family and ask for their help setting routines.”
