Description
Giving your students the space in your classroom to self-regulate, cool down and calm down are extremely important.
When we talk about "challenging behaviors" and behavior management, we need to have proactive strategies to support our students' communication and help de-escalate any possible meltdowns.
In this Calm Down Visual resource, you can set up your students and your class up for success around navigating big emotions like being overwhelmed, feeling frustrated, and generally being upset. We seek to support students with compassion, promote self-advocacy, and giving them space to communicate their needs.
All of our resources are neurodiversity-affirming and strengths-based. We are focused on meeting students where they are and supporting their needs.
