This lesson meets standards for CASEL, AASL and ISTE.
Whether it's watching TV or playing on a tablet, using tech can be super fun! Often, kids find it hard to transition from an online activity to an offline one. Teach your students a simple routine for how to manage those inevitable digital interruptions that are part of everyone's lives in the digital age.
Students will be able to:
-
Learn why it's important to be aware and respectful of people while using devices.
-
Learn the Pause, Breathe, Finish Up routine as a self-regulation strategy for transitioning from technology to face-to-face interactions.
