Lesson Plan
Zones Mapping Activity
Students will collaboratively map emotions and activities to the four Zones of Regulation, learn to identify their current zone, and practice targeted strategies to shift to their optimal learning zone.
Building self-awareness and self-regulation helps students manage emotions, reduce disruptions, and stay engaged in learning by choosing appropriate strategies when they feel stuck.
