Stress Management with Art Lesson Plan
Many students become overwhelmed with increasingly difficult tasks in school, especially in Special Education settings. Since stress management is not usually taught as a subject, most students are not coached how to handle stress. This plan gives students an outlet, through art, to help themselves recover from a stressful event. They can use this technique multiple times, to help them cope, rather than develop Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
