Jabbedu Education Podcast

Have you ever had one of those moments where you feel out of control?  Where your don't seem to have a grip on your emotions? 

Emotional control can be a challenge for students - throw in the hormonal changes that mess with the limbic system during puberty and you can really see it!  That's why teaching the skills of self-regulations can be so crucial for a child's success in the classroom.  Enter: The ZONES of Regulation.

In this episode, I chat with the developer and author of the ZONES of Regulation curriculum and resources, Leah Kuypers.  We cover topics like

• How the ZONES originated from her work as a Occupational Therapist
• Why there's no hierarchy, and why you can be in multiple ZONES at once.
• The four steps to support regulation: recognize, identify, select a tool, regulate!

As well as the extensive number of books, lessons, apps, and other resources available at www.zonesofregulation.com.

Kim doesn't have high expectations... all she wants to do is solve world peace and uproot the entire education system... nothing too lofty. 

I say that in a sarcastic tone, but isn't this the kind of person we want out in front of us, leading the charge in our education system? 

In this episode Dr. Yoak and I chat about how she became a mathematics fanatic, how her guiding principle of "Empower every learner every day through mathematics to create a just and peaceful world where all people flourish" guides her professional development sessions, and how we can make math more meaningful for our students.
