Introduce the lesson: Explain the purpose of today's session on self-control, emphasizing the fun and importance of learning how to stay safe and behave appropriately in the classroom.

Explain what impulse control is. Use the Impulse Control Visuals to show a simple story of a character who practices waiting and thinking before acting. Ask simple questions like “What do you think happens when we pause?” to engage the student.

Introduce the Self-Control Story Cards. Narrate a short story about a character who demonstrates staying in the classroom rather than running out. Encourage role-play by asking the student to act out scenarios from the story.

Guide the student through a quick practice session. Ask reflective questions about what they learned. Emphasize positive feedback and encourage repeat practice.
