Fostering Self-Regulation and Emotional Control with ZONES with Leah Kuypers


Listen Later

Have you ever had one of those moments where you feel out of control?  Where your don't seem to have a grip on your emotions? 

Emotional control can be a challenge for students - throw in the hormonal changes that mess with the limbic system during puberty and you can really see it!  That's why teaching the skills of self-regulations can be so crucial for a child's success in the classroom.  Enter: The ZONES of Regulation.

In this episode, I chat with the developer and author of the ZONES of Regulation curriculum and resources, Leah Kuypers.  We cover topics like

  • How the ZONES originated from her work as a Occupational Therapist
  • Why there's no hierarchy, and why you can be in multiple ZONES at once.
  • The four steps to support regulation: recognize, identify, select a tool, regulate!

As well as the extensive number of books, lessons, apps, and other resources available at www.zonesofregulation.com.
