THE ZONES OF REGULATION: A CONCEPT TO FOSTER SELF-REGULATION & EMOTIONAL CONTROL

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The Zones of Regulation®: Exploring Emotions is an application designed to foster self-regulation skills in fun and exciting ways while simulating everyday situations to which students can relate. The app helps students gain skills in consciously regulating their behaviors to the social and environmental demands.

Exploring Emotions offers a new medium to address self-regulation needs and reinforce The Zones framework. There are several features in the app that create a comprehensive learning experience:

* Audio voiceover enriches the experience for students by providing social interaction between characters and instructional teachings throughout the app.

* Data tracking allows students to apply what they are learning in the app to their own life by self-monitoring and reflecting on their feelings (Zones) and how they were managed during events that occurred over the course of their day. These graphs can be saved, revisited and edited, and emailed to an email address.

* Easy navigation throughout the app allows students to return to any point in the app to replay and consider different outcomes.

* Integration of an expansive toolbox that is fully customizable by students which allows them to learn about and categorize dozens of tools to help them manage their zones. They are also able to adjust the content of their toolbox.

* Incorporation of mini games provide real-time the opportunities for students to reflect on the outcome of the games and how this triggers emotions.

* Multiple environments including a classroom, a cafeteria, and a park that offer different scenarios, events and activities that students can easily relate to are presented throughout the app, helping students to make connections between learning in the app to real life.

* Reinforcing activities are infused throughout the app. For example, students can unlock a mini game and customize their avatar by coloring their hair and buying custom outfits.

* References to The Zones of Regulation curriculum are embedded throughout the app to assist adults who support a student in locating additional educational resources to strengthen learning.

Exploring Emotions is designed to be used with Pre-K, elementary students, secondary students, and is applicable to adults that struggle with emotional control. To enhance learning, it is recommended that an adult closely monitor the student's progression through the App, asking probing questions and facilitating discussions about how the App's content can be generalized to the student's real life. Exploring Emotions is a resource for parents to teach and encourage self-control and emotional management in the home through the Zones framework. It is an exciting resource for therapists and teachers looking to address social emotional learning (SEL) through a medium that is motivating for students.

The App provides a fun and engaging experience for students while they learn and gain valuable knowledge to assist in developing real-life skills in self-regulation and emotional control.

The Zones of Regulation: Exploring Emotions is available on iPad®, iPhone®, iPod touch®, Mac® and Android™.

The Android version of The Zones of Regulation: Exploring Emotions, is currently only available on The Amazon App store for Android. If you own a non-amazon tablet or phone you will need to install the Amazon App Store to your device. Please click the link below to download the APK and then follow the instructions to install it on your device.

Daily FB Lives

Home Safari Facebook Lives start today.
CINCINNATI, OH (March 16, 2020) - The Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden closed to the public yesterday to do its part to curb the spread of the Coronavirus (COVID-19). During the closure, the Zoo plans to offer Home Safari Facebook Lives seven days a week!

"We're bringing the Zoo to people who are stuck at home," said Cincinnati Zoo Director Thane Maynard. "This Zoo is so important to the community and not being able to visit will create a void that we're trying to fill. The goal with the daily live sessions is to provide fun and educational content to people who are stuck at home."

The Home Safaris will start today at 3 p.m. EST. The first one will feature the world's most famous hippo, Fiona. To watch live, just visit the Zoo's Facebook page at 3pm. The Zoo will also post the safaris on its website and on YouTube so everyone can view.

"We announced the safaris on Facebook yesterday, and the response was phenomenal. That post has reached more than 18 million people and has been shared 283,000 times," said Maynard. "I'm not a social media expert, but I'm pretty sure those numbers are off the charts."

The Zoo also picked up 400,000 new Facebook followers after it announced the lives. It plans to bring the Zoo into peoples' homes via its other social channels throughout the day as long as it remains closed.

"As a non-profit organization, the Zoo relies on ticket sales, zoo visits, memberships and donations to operate. Being closed will have a significant impact on its overall operating budget. Please consider donating to our emergency operating fund to assist us with the care of our animals and team members. Your support now is more critical than ever," said Maynard.

Other ways to support the Zoo during this difficult period is to purchase or renew existing memberships, ADOPT animals or send a personalized Cameo message from Fiona to someone you love!
