Take a Break (or Relaxation Station) - Compliments the "Zones"

This product can be used to create a calming corner in any classroom to help students practice self-regulation skills. The posters and cards give many examples of "tools" the children can try in order to help them manage "big" emotions.

Students can use the posters to identify how they are feeling, choose a strategy to use, and then return to the learning environment.

If you are looking to create a “trauma-informed” environment, this is a great tool for that. This product also coordinates with the Zones of Regulation.

Included are four color posters and a "toolbox" of strategies for each color. There are also two extra toolbox strategy posters that can be used with any of the colors.

Examples of some of the strategies include: taking deep breathes, counting to ten, giving yourself a hug, doing exercises, using a coping tool (a fidget), asking for help, pushing against a wall, taking a drink of water, etc.
