Social Thinking & The Zones of Regulation to build
mindfulness and social skills:
We Thinkers! series helps children build foundational
social competencies and essential life skills through stories,
lessons, and play activities. The teachings help kids better
understand themselves and others, develop self-
awareness, perspective taking, social problem solving, and
supports students’ social-emotional learning, relationship
building, classroom learning, and academic performance.
Zones of Regulation® teaches students strategies for
emotional and sensory self-management. Rooted in
cognitive behavioural therapy, The Zones approach uses
four colours to help students identify how they are feeling
in the moment given their emotions and level of alertness
as well as guide them to strategies to support regulation.
Our approach to develop a well-rounded individual is
multi-faceted. Therefore we are invested in teaching our
young students mindful awareness, as a life time skill
and to help with cognitive and academic growth.
Mindfulness helps children improve their ability to get
along with other children, be more emphatic, more
optimistic and enhance self-concept, self-regulation and
self management. Children will learn to have better
impulse control and less reactivity: how to shift
perspective to come up with a less emotional—and more
productive—reaction. Also, mindfulness education teaches
children to reduce stress, focus better on tasks, follow
through and prioritize.
Strategies we engage for teaching mindfulness: “mind
break” used in stressful situations, or simply when
transitioning from one activity to the next: students take a
deep breath and calm themselves, quiet their minds, be
present, peaceful and really focus on the positive.
Other lessons include practising mindful awareness
during everyday activities, like walking and eating, to
teach kids to truly be in that moment, and how to help
them remember a happy time or appreciate a happy
experience.
All of these programs include Family Letters/At
Home Activities to help you support your child's
learning at home.
