This month the class is focusing on a learning skill but it's so much more than a learning skill! We are learning all about self-regulation. Self-regulation is our ability to regulate our emotions and behaviours in times of stress or anxiety. Our capacity to regulate our emotions allow us to be calm, alert and happy! According to educational research, self-regulation along with self-control are huge predictors in whether or not a child will thrive in school, adolescence and even later adulthood. Luckily, self-regulation is a skill that is highly teachable at any age. Being conscious of ourselves, our emotions, our triggers and our calming strategies help us to be more self-aware and self-regulate. T
