Social Thinking

- small_title: “” text: | When working with students, Zones of Regulation are used to help teach self-regulation and emotional control. When students are able to identify feeling states and which zone they are in, they are better able to identify strategies needed to reach the ideal state of alertness, the green zone. Identifying tools/strategies for each of the zones is also a helpful way to teach self-regulation and reinforce skills.
