This lesson, based on Gym Class Zero – Chapter 4: Coach A’s Help, guides students in exploring how supportive adults can help manage anxiety and build confidence. Through warm-up reflections, read-alouds, partner reading, and guided discussion, students analyze how Chase’s feelings are shown in the story and how Coach A provides encouragement. A role-play activity allows them to practice supportive dialogue in different school scenarios, and the lesson closes with a personal reflection on coping strategies. Assessment is based on participation and exit ticket responses highlighting individual approaches to handling nervousness.
