Students at every grade level learn about their emotions, behaviors, and thoughts. Some students may experience bigger emotions or behaviors than others. The global pandemic students have experienced has taken a toll on not only their academic success but their mental health. Social and emotional learning within schools promote a positive and safe school climate while simultaneously enhancing a student's ability access to their education.
By creating a 'Take a Break' space in each classroom throughout the school, students can access a space created to help self-regulate their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors.
A 'Take a Break' Space will offer students an opportunity to engage in self-regulation tools and strategies without leaving the classroom and missing whole group instruction. Whole group instruction/lessons are needed for students to gain knowledge and content related to specific subject areas in order to succeed.
