This CPD session has been written for those schools looking to embed the Zones of Regulation across their school.
It is a one hour CPD session with supporting teacher guide that outlines a practical approach to making zones work in a school setting.
The teacher guide also provides some useful templates that can be used to support students to ‘take 5’ out of the lesson to self regulate and to guide the process of a ‘take 20’ for an emotional wellbeing chat with a teacher.
Zones has been launched successfully across my school off the back of this CPD session.
An introductory lesson to the Zones of Regulation - a method of supporting young people with their social and emotional health through teaching them strategies to regulate their behaviour.
**This is lesson one in a series of 6, each lesson designed to last for one hour each. ** Further zones lessons and resources are available at my shop.
These resources are easy to use, detailed and can be ammended to suit your needs. Useful for any subject, but particularly PSHE or Tutor Time. Zones lessons would work with upper KS2, KS3 and KS4.
