Think Framework Lesson Plan
Students will learn the THINK framework (True, Helpful, Important, Necessary, Kind) to evaluate their words and practice using kind language, culminating in a personal Kind Words Pledge.
This lesson gives students a simple tool to filter speech, reducing unkind remarks, fostering empathy, and supporting a positive, bully-free classroom culture.
