This Impulse Control Activity Packet for High School Students is a valuable resource designed to help students develop self-control and self-discipline through activities that are relatable to their everyday experiences. The activities are based on real-life scenarios and challenges that teens commonly face, such as peer pressure, social media conflicts, academic stress, etc., making the lessons meaningful and engaging. Students will participate in decision-making exercises and role-playing activities that encourage them to think about the consequences of their actions. These activities connect directly to situations students encounter, helping them apply impulse control strategies in a practical way. The activities in this packet also help students practice pausing and thinking before acting, encouraging them to carefully consider their choices and avoid making decisions they might later regret. This packet aims to equip students with skills to manage emotions, think critically, and make positive decisions in their day-to-day lives.

Answer keys | Sample Responses are included to help you guide discussions, provide feedback, and ensure students are on the right track as they work through the activities. These keys offer clear examples and solutions to support both understanding and skill development.
