When we respect our students and the feelings they have, we can approach teaching self-regulation through the perspective of understanding, compassion, and assistance, rather than behavior expectations, rewards, and consequences.

There are 4 basic principles for teachers to keep in mind when implementing the Zones of Regulation.

4. The context we are in helps us figure out how to manage our Zone so our behavior meets the demands of the social environment, and in doing so we are able to achieve the tasks we are trying to accomplish and/or the social goals we’ve set for ourselves in that situation.

3. Our behavior is a byproduct of how we manage our Zone; therefore, consequences should not be tied to a Zone.

2. Our Zone is defined by the feelings and internal states we experience on the inside.

1.All zones are natural to experience; there is no bad zone.

The Zones of Regulation is a curriculum dsigned to foster self-regulation and emotional control. It focuses on teaching students how to recognize and manage their zone based on the demands of their environment and the people around them.
