Stressed Out!

Have you ever stopped to think about how your reaction to stress is viewed through your child's eyes? If you are pregnant, how does your baby know when you are stress out?

Life is stressful and there is no way to avoid it! We have covered a great lesson about stress management this week. Here is the Stress Management Lesson Plan for teachers to view.

These are some of the things you learned:

• stress vocabulary
• levels of stress
• stages of coping with stressful situations
• your own stress score
• physical changes you notice from stress
• learning how to cope with daily stress

At the end of this unit your class will write the ABC's of Managing Stress. (Create your own title). We will upload your list onto The ABC's of Life website so other teen parents will be able to learn about stress.

Comment Assignment: Describe how this unit helped you and what are some coping skills you will use in your own life.
