Perfectionism - mistakes are normal and how we learn, everyone make mistakes, rough drafts, brain storming, parents to take to pediatrician, don't draw attention to problem recognize and reward small improvements, checklist of how many times the student shreds, gets upset, showing improvement in self-regulation.

Our plan is to have the safe and inclusive school team work with Stuart Shanker resources and implement consistent school wide self-regulation strategies (Zones of Reglation). We will also plan parent drop in sessions and have the Health Dept. support with training for parents on Resiliency for Students. We will invite parents with children in "need" to join us for particular sessions creating a common aproach at home and at school.
