I-Messages and Please Stop Lesson

Description

Help your Pre-K students learn how to advocate for themselves with this fully scripted social-emotional learning lesson. Grounded in SEL research-based best practices, this engaging lesson uses a short story about Lulu the tortoise and Pippa the koala to help young learners learn the importance of communicating how you feel and how to do it assertively. Students will build their self-awareness, connect to real-life scenarios, and practice this important skill through movement, activities and discussion.

Included in the resource:

• Slideshow featuring an interactive read-aloud story with a movement-based activity
• Whole group practice activities to help students learn to communicate their feelings in real time
• Cut-out character puppets to bring the story to life and support role play and retelling
• Extension activities, including a worksheet, recommended book companions, and a teacher handout for additional support
• Closing circle questions to deepen reflection and discussion
