This week’s lesson is: 

Zones of Regulation – How the zone you are in impacts others around you? 

This week we are learning to identify which zones people are in and how it makes the people around them feel. 

In order to do this, we watched some shows to identify which zones characters were in and how others reacted to it.  

This is what we asked students to think about while watching: 

• How did the characters get along with each other when they were in the different zones? 
• What were others thinking about them when they were in the Yellow or Red Zone and it was unexpected? 
• In which zone were the characters most successful? 
• What did people think of them when their zone was expected? 
• In what zone do you feel you get along best with others or are most successful? 

People are most likely to have positive interactions when they are in the Green Zone. You can perform better when you remain calm and focused.  

Other people may perceive your behaviour as disruptive or inappropriate in the Yellow Zone, even though you may not think so.
