Week 1 of 6 Kindergarten Lunch Bunch

Feeling Detectives Facilitator Guide

Session Time 25 Minutes

Weekly Skill Goal

Introduce lunch group norms, build psychological safety, and teach students to recognize and name 4 core feelings: Happy, Sad, Mad, and Calm.

Supplies Needed

Feeling Faces Activity Mat (1 per student), crayons, hand wipes/napkins, student lunchboxes/cafeteria trays, detective magnifying glass prop (optional).

Step-by-Step Session Plan (25 Minutes)

1. Settle & Lunch Circle Agreements (5 Min) Arrival & Food Setup

Help students open juice boxes, thermos containers, and wrappers. Introduce the 3 Calm Club Promises:

1. Safe Hands & Mouths 2. Kind Ears Listening 3. All Feelings Welcome

2. The Feeling Detective Clue Game (8 Min) Modeling & Chewing

While students chew, model detective clues. Show facial expressions and body posture.

Script Prompt: "Detectives look for clues! When I smile and bounce, my clue says I feel HAPPY. What does my face do when I feel MAD? Eyebrows go down, lips get tight!"

Have students silently copy each emotion face while swallowing food (Happy, Sad, Mad, Calm).

3. Check-In Mat & Share Time (8 Min) Hands-on Practice

Hand out the Feeling Faces Activity Mat. Students point with their index finger to how they felt this morning, then draw a quick feeling face. Go around circle: "Today I felt [emotion] when..."

4. Wrap-Up & Calming Cheer (4 Min) Clean Up & Line Up

Pack lunchboxes and wipe tables. Lead group cheer: "Hands on heart, take a breath in... Calm Club Explorers are ready to win!" Line up safely.

Kindergarten Lunch Pro-Tips

Managing Spills & Talking: Keep wet paper towels nearby. Establish the rule: "Food in mouth = ears are listening; mouth empty = ready to talk."

Reluctant Sharers: If a student shrugs or says "I don't know," offer two choices: "Did your morning feel more like a bouncy puppy (happy) or a sleepy bear (calm)?"

Body Signals Facilitator Guide

Week 2 of 6 Kindergarten Lunch Bunch

Body Signals Facilitator Guide

Session Time 25 Minutes

Weekly Skill Goal

Help students connect physical body sensations (racing heart, clutched fists, fluttering tummy, wiggly toes) to emotional states so they can catch big feelings early.

Supplies Needed

Body Clues Explorer Sheets, red/yellow/green/blue crayons, wet wipes for hands, paper towels for lunch trays.

Step-by-Step Session Plan (25 Minutes)

1. Lunch Setup & Feeling Review (5 Min) Arrival Routine

Settle students with their lunches. Review Week 1's 3 Calm Club Promises. Ask for a quick thumb check: "Thumbs up if your morning was smooth, thumbs sideways if it had a bump."

2. "My Body is a Smoke Alarm" Story (7 Min) Instruction & Modeling

Explain that our bodies send us text messages or siren beeps before a big meltdown happens.

Script: "Your body talks to you! Before you shout or cry, your body gives CLUES. Your heart goes thump-thump-thump! Your hands make tight rocks! Or your tummy feels like jumping frogs!"

Model hand to chest: "Put your palm on your heart. Can you feel your quiet beat?"

3. Body Clues Explorer Activity (9 Min) Targeted Practice

Hand out the Body Clues Explorer Sheet. Guide students to color the body clues:

Heart: Color green if quiet, color red if fast like a race car!
Tummy: Color yellow if it feels twisty or full of butterflies.
Hands: Open and wiggle fingers (soft) vs squeezing tight (angry rocks).

4. Clean Up & "Freeze and Soften" Reset (4 Min) Transition

Students pack up trays. Lead 10-second muscle release: "Squeeze hands into tight lemons... now drop them like warm cooked spaghetti! Ahhh." Walk calmly to line.

Developmental Coaching Note

Concrete Language: Kindergarteners struggle with abstract terms like "anxiety" or "tension." Always use tangible words: tight rocks, buzz bees, race car heart, melted butter.

Physical Safety Check: If a student shows clenched fists often, reinforce that clenching hands is normal, but hands must always stay on our own body.

Step-by-Step Session Plan (25 Minutes)

🥣 Hot Soup Breath

Hold hands like a bowl. Smell the yummy soup in (nose)... gently blow to cool it down (mouth).

🎈 Belly Balloon

Both hands on tummy. Breathe in to puff the balloon out big! Exhale with a gentle hiss: sssss.

⭐ Starfish Trace

Spread one hand out. Trace up a finger (breathe in), trace down a finger (breathe out). 5 full breaths!

3. Finger Tracing on Rainbow Mats (8 Min) Guided Practice

Distribute Rainbow Breaths Tracing Mats. Practice sliding pointer fingers along the curved rainbow track:

"Slide up the rainbow: Breathe in sunshine! Touch the fluffy cloud: Hold a tiny second. Slide down to the pot of gold: Blow out the gray clouds!"

4. Clean Up & "Secret Breath" Challenge (4 Min) Classroom Bridge

Clean lunch table. Challenge: "When you sit on your classroom rug this afternoon, try 1 Hot Soup breath without anyone even noticing!"

Facilitator Troubleshooting

Preventing Hyperventilating: Young children often gasp fast and hard. Emphasize: "Gentle and slow like blowing a soap bubble without popping it."

Food in Mouth Safety: Always make sure students swallow their food before attempting deep breathing or belly breaths to prevent choking.

Friendship Bumps Facilitator Guide

Week 5 of 6 Kindergarten Lunch Bunch

Friendship Bumps Facilitator Guide

Session Time 25 Minutes

Weekly Skill Goal

Teach students to match the size of their reaction to the size of the problem (Pebble vs. Rock vs. Mountain) and practice using calm words during peer bumps.

Supplies Needed

Problem Size Sorting Mats (1 per student), crayons, lunch items, scenario role-play props (small toy blocks or crayons).

Step-by-Step Session Plan (25 Minutes)

1. Lunch Settle & "Bump of the Week" (5 Min) Arrival Routine

Unpack lunches. Ask: "Have you ever had a friend bump at recess or lunch? Like someone sitting in your favorite spot or taking a toy?" Validate that bumps happen every day.

2. The 3 Sizes of Problems (7 Min) Direct Instruction

Explain that our reaction should match the size of the bump:

🪨 Pebble (Glitch)

Tiny bump! Crayon breaks or lost turn. I take a breath and fix it myself.

🧱 Rock (Medium)

Friend won't share or pushes in line. I use my words or ask a teacher.

⛰️ Mountain (Big)

Someone is hurt or unsafe! Get a grown-up right away!

3. Problem Size Sorting Mat (9 Min) Sorting Activity

Hand out the Problem Size Sorting Mat. Read real school scenarios aloud. Students point or draw a line to Pebble, Rock, or Mountain:

Teach the Golden Calm Phrase: "I feel sad when you take my block. Can I please have a turn when you finish?"

4. Clean Up & High-Five Affirmation (4 Min) Closure

Clean lunch table. Pass a gentle high-five around the circle: "Small problems don't need giant volcanoes!" Line up safely.

Facilitation Insight

Validating Before Sorting: Never tell a kindergartener "that's not a big deal." Instead say: "That felt really big to you! Let's see if we can turn it into a pebble together."

Tattling vs. Reporting: Clarify: Reporting is keeping someone safe (Mountain). Tattling is trying to get a friend in trouble over a Pebble.
