Lesson Plan:
Intro

- Environment: Play song “Brave” by Sara Bareilles while students get out Yoga mats.
Calm
- Sharing – Share some of the significant words to the song (You can start speaking up, nothings going to hurt you the way that words do, let the words fall out, I want to see you be brave). The song is an example of finding emotional strength in your words.
