Part of Lesson Plan: "Stress'n"
Activity Overview / Details
Teacher summarizes the events of the day and then hands out the homework due the next day. Students will fill out the homework handout by writing down 10 signs of stress their specific animal will show. These may be very specific to the student's animal as they know that animal better than anyone else. In short, each student will create a stress test for their animal.
Students will review their "Stress Test" homework the next day.
