Zones of Regulation
Children need to be taught explicitly how to regulate their actions when they experience strong emotions. When they can do this, it leads to increased self regulation control and problem solving abilities. Children can learn to recognize their emotions when they pay attention to the responses they are having in the mind, heart and body. In our lessons the students have been exploring how our thoughts create emotions and are learning ways to manage their emotions through self-regulation strategies (taking a walk, getting a drink of water, taking a mindful breath. The Zones of Regulation chart can be very useful to students to help them to recognize when they may no longer be in the green zone. Children still need our help in modelling and demonstrating who to deal with emotions that happen throughout the day.
