BITE SIZE of Lesson 6 in the Zones of Regulation series - a method of supporting young people with their social and emotional health through teaching them strategies to regulate their behaviour.
This is lesson 6 in a series of 6, each lesson designed to last for 15-20 minutes each. This lesson explores the size of the problem and how students responses to problems should match the size of the problem in front of them. It explores why students can sometimes over react to a small problem and teaches how to put problems in perspective.
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.
