Learning, thinking, listening, processing information, communicating and relationships with others are best when one is in a calm and regulated state. Regulation in others, starts with our own skills of self-regulation. Then through the process of co-regulation, calm is shared and modeled which in turn develops and fosters the ability for students to self-regulate. This course will provide participants a framework to understand calm and regulation through the brain/body/behavior connection. Participants will develop a working understanding of the terms: regulation, dysregulation, and co-regulation. Resources and materials are designed to help participants implement strategies and teaching procedures to create calm. This course is relevant to all who work in schools with children ages 5-21 in both regular and special education settings. This course has been designed for all school administrators, regular and special education teachers (grades K-12 and ages 5 to 21),special area teachers (gym, art, music, technology) school psychologists, school counselors, guidance counselors, social workers, speech and language therapists or speech pathologists and occupational or physical therapists.
