How I self regulate at home. One time my siblings hide my stuff and I was not happy. I ask them where it is and they say it is in this room and I was angry. After I think I should calm down so I took some deep breath and I was looking for my stuff. After I find it I say to my sibling to stop hiding my stuff.
I is important to calm down when you are in one of the zones because if you don’t calm down you could start a fight with you family. Your family is important and you need them. And you don’t want to fight with anyone.

I have met the success criteria and requirements

Self regulation. What is it? Well, it's a term that we use that means our ability to focus and stay on a calm, learning-ready behaviour. We can't do this all the time, but if we really put our minds to it, we can. For example, this summer, I had some issues with my self regulation, but I worked on it and tried to improve. I wasn't doing any chores around the house and I wasn't listening to my parents when they said that meals were ready. I felt bad, and this put me in the Blue Zone. So, I avoided using my screens and other distractions. Now, I feel that I have improved on my self regulation at home and perhaps even at school. There are many strategies that could be completely different than this, but this one worked for me.

I have completed the criteria and all the requirements.

Self regulation. This might be a term you've heard of before. If you're self regulated, you're calm, focused, ready to learn, and in the green zone. As humans, it's almost impossible to always be self regulated. Maybe you're sad, mad, overly excited. One thing that always helps me, is alone time. Sometimes, I get into a fight with my sister. Maybe it's my fault, maybe it's hers. I get mad because of or at something, and the result of that is me in the red zone. When this happens, I get some alone time. I'll go to my room, away from other people, and I let myself calm down. I find being alone and having some time to cool off and breathe is really important, since I'm in a vulnerable and sensitive state, don't want to lash out and someone. Though there are lots of tools and exercises you can do, this is one that really helps me. I think that, now, I have been able to calm myself down and find tools and strategies to help me when I'm not in the green zone. But, as a reminder, it's totally okay to not be self regulated, but bringing yourself back is really good and beneficial for your learning.

I have met and checked the criteria and requirements.

Everyone should try to self regulate most of the time, but sometimes it's hard and you might lose control. Thankfully there are tools you can use to calm down before getting to the Red Zone. For example, one time at home I was working on a craft and it wasn't working out. It felt like no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't do it. I was frustrated and a little bit in the Red Zone so I decided to take a break. I think taking breaks help because after I took one I felt better. I tried again, thought about it differently, and it worked! Sometimes you just need to clear your mind because such strong emotions can fog up your brain in some situations. I think we can all do more to improve self-regulation, because it is a good skill to have.

How can you self-regulate in class or at home? Sometimes self-regulating might be hard, because often times you might loose control. If you are self-regulated, you are feeling calm ,happy and ready to learn! But sadly, not everyone can do that, just like me! Yesterday at lunch time, our teacher Mr.Hong was reading aloud the Fish In A Tree book and I was reading another book. Mr.Hong had to stop reading to call out that some students were reading while he was reading aloud.
I immediately put my book away, feeling bad that I shouldn’t have read.
I was in the blue zone, because I was feeling sad and frustrated. My feelings helped me to stop reading(that was my strategy). Today, my teacher was reading aloud again and I took out my book. I read three pages and I thought of yesterday. Then, I quickly put my book away. I have learnt to focus on what I am doing and try not to read when we are doing something important.
I met the criteria, the requirements and I don’t think I have anything to work on.

Self-regulation. What is it and how do we control it? There are 3 simple steps to self-regulating. First identify what zone you’re in (red, blue, yellow, green). Second why you were feeling that way. Lastly Figure out how to transfer yourself to the green zone or stay in it. I have had to self-regulate myself in the house many times like right now doing my PAR. I could not think of anything. I was in the yellow zone then. I was frustrated that I couldn't think. But afterwards I noticed I could just use that as an example for my PAR. I now fully understand the zones of regulation and how they help every day. Stay in the green zone.

I have met the success criteria.

Matthew

Since we've been learning about self regulation and the zones I am assigned to tell you one time I have self regulated and a time I didn't self regulate. One time at the start of the new school year someone came up to talk to me about something so I told him to get back to work and he accepted that and got back to work. One time recently I was working with my partner for science and you could say he was being a bit chatty and I forgot to self regulate and get back to work. Some tactics I use to self regulate in situations is to tell the other person your talking to get back to work and then I start to do my work again. Another strategy I use when needing to self regulate is to calm down by taking deep breaths when I'm hyper or exited. These are some good strategy's for me and I hope they will work for everyone else.

How I self regulation at home. When i get in the red zone by my siblings stealing my homework and hiding it. In would usually first ask them were is it in a nice way but they will not tell me were is it. So I would have to find it my self it will take me a long time to find it or a short time to find it. If i cant find it i would be super mad so I would go to my room and have some alone time and have a break. After have a break I would try and ask then one more time and they will finally tell me.

Over the last week we have been learning about self regulation, self regulating your environment, emotions, learning etcetera.
I personally have never been unable to self-regulate THIS year.
You should be aware of the zone youre in finding out why youre in that zone and then slowly transferring into the green zone.
At home I self regulate by going into my room, drinking water, listening to music. Those are all good ways to self regulate and might also work for those looking for ways to self regulate.

I have checked and met the criteria.

Also how is it ALREADY the 7th of october. Time flies.

Rachel

10/21/2021 02:10:24 am

@shawn - You did a pretty good job with your paragraph, and I liked your thesis statement, because it was very clear of what your paragraph was going to be about.

Feedback - Not much to say, just try to add some more detail next time, and don't forget to add your commas when listing something! For example, with the sentence, 'you should be aware of the zone youre in finding out why youre in that zone and then slowly transferring into the green zone..' I think you either forgot the commas, or didn't really try to make it as perfect as you could, because in the other sentence, you actually put commas. Again, not sure if you forgot or didn't care, but you need to put apostrophes in between the 'you', and the 're', so 'you're'. Other than that, your paragraph wasn't bad!

How to self-regulate both at school and home. Usually, deep breaths helps me to self regulate at school. Last year, me and my classmate always makes funny jokes and it was really hard to stop myself from laughing. By that time we already learned about the zones of regulation, so I first identify which zone I was in (yellow zone). Then I figure out why I was in this zone and what triggered me laughing. After that, I took few deep breath and stop thinking about it. Right now, I think self-regulating is really important because you should always calm yourself down before you start losing control of yourselves.

Sometimes, self-regulating can be hard. It probably not possible for anyone to always stay relaxed and in the green zone. This is why you should think of tools that can help you self-regulate if you are in the blue, yellow, or red zone. Sometimes, I can’t self-regulate while I’m working on my math. When the person beside me constantly asks me if their answers are correct or tries to copy my answers, I can get annoyed and a bit frustrated. I get a bit “pushy” and become less focused. Therefore, I am in the yellow zone when that occurs. Some tools or strategies I try to use when this happens is to just ignore the distractions and focus on my own work. I also tell the person to stop, so we can both self-regulate. Fortunately, I always return to the green zone quickly. Everyone can’t self-regulate sometimes, but the important part is to use the tools you thought of to return you to a state that is ready to learn.

The passing week I have learned about self-regulation. Not just, regulation ourselves, it also include our environment, emotions, and etc. Once I was pretty mad at sister for stealing my candies. First, I asked her nicely, she doesn't gave them back and I start crying. After, I calm myself down back into the green zone. I think through what happen and think is my behaviour appropriate. Now, I self-regulate by drinking water, sleeping, and take deep breathes.

Self regulation is a kind of term that many people have heard of. If you are self regulated, you belong in the green zone but when you are having a negative feeling you belong in the red zone which makes you hard to self regulate. There are many strategies that could help me self regulate at school such as taking deep breaths and sitting in an area by my self, but I have my own strategy which is fidgeting with a fidget toy. I do have an example when it was hard for me to self regulate because sometimes, I use my computer at home playing video games secretly during weekdays since I was bored but my dad came in and found out that I was playing, so he took my mouse and yells at me and then I got upset which puts me into the blue zone. There was something that helped me self regulate which is to think about my screen time that I can use the computer only in the weekends or if I am using it for working and my mother told me that my dad needs to take my mouse because my dad is actually caring about me since he was worried that If I had too many screen time I might have bad eye vision and then my feelings go back to the green zone because I realize that my dad needs to take it away to care about me. Self regulating is important when you feel upset or raged as you can think what to do next time if somebody upsets you and you could also take deep breaths that can calm you down. I had read the success criteria above.

Self regulation skills at school and at home.

One thing that I can do to self regulate is to self regulate my environment. That means if I am sitting beside some one that I think I will get distracted by move before you talk to them.One time I was sitting next to one of my friends and I got in trouble because I was talking to them. I should have recognized I would talk to them and move before. At home I really wanted to go fishing and my dad said ok but later we had other plans and I couldn’t go so I was really upset. I was in the red zone. My strategy to calm down was to go into my room and take 10 deep breaths and when i am ready go and talk to my dad about it in a calm voice.

I have followed the criteria above.

What is self regulation? Well, Self-regulation is the ability to understand and manage your behaviour and your reactions to feelings and things happening around you. It includes being able to: learn behaviour that helps you get along with other people. The way i self regulate is by breathing, dancing, listening to music, talk to my parents, scream into a pillow, kicking things and positive thoughts to be in green zone again.

We all make mistakes, but sometimes our actions can go a little too far. Self-regulating can help us in many ways, and it's usually involved with controlling our behavior, or emotions. I had a time where I pretty much lost control of myself, because my sister ripped a drawing of mine, and I had 2 choices in mind. The first choice was to tell my mom, and my second choice was to stay calm and act like I didn't care. By picking the second choice, nothing chaotic ever happened, and I slowly began to forget about it. Of course, I can't always handle my situations nicely, because another time at home, I lost control again, and during that time, I wasn't able to regulate myself. Instead, I focused more on my actions and started throwing whatever I saw across the ground. I don't regret my past actions at all though, because we aren't perfect, and like I said before, we all make mistakes.

Oriana

10/7/2021 09:55:25 pm

@Rachel - you did a really great job!
FEEDBACK: Maybe instead, you can split "I had a time where I pretty much lost control of myself, because my sister ripped a drawing of mine, and I had 2 choices in mind." into two sentences. Like "I had a time where I pretty much lost control of myself, because my sister ripped a drawing of mine. I had two choices in mind, the first one..." since it seemed a bit...long?
FEEDBACK 2: "can't always handle my situations nicely, because another time at home, I lost control again, and during that time, I wasn't able to regulate myself. Instead..." Split that one too. "can't always handle my situations nicely. Another time at home, I lost control. During that time, I wasn't able to regulate myself. Instead,..."
Overall, you did a fantastic job, and it was hard to give you feedback since it was so good.

Making mistakes is part of one's learning process, and learning to adapt from our previous actions will drive one forward to more success. For example, my communication with others may sometimes be problematic because I can get quite worked up. My brother and I often fight and argue with each other because of a variety of reasons. We may lose control, ending up throwing things, screaming, and making our house a place of chaos. Expressing myself angrily in the red zone releases stress and frustrations, but I understand that that would not benefit my mental health and other people's mental health, too. Therefore, I try my best to focus on my work or book, for it distracts me from other problems. Eventually, my frustration seaps away, and I am back in the green zone. Therefore, to self-regulate when I am in the green zone, I like to distract myself with hobbies, a book, or some other aspect of work.

Self Regulation. What is Self Regulation?? Self Regulation is something very important during every scenario. You need Self Regulation during school, at home, basically everywhere you go. Self- regulating helps us control our behavior. Once, I was literally losing my mind like I'm serious I was gonna rage #red zone. But I self-regulated by going into my room and attacking my pillow aggressively. Then I went back to green zone after awhile and was chill. After that I was acting like I did NOT just have a red zone moment, I think I surprised my parents a little with my 'unexpected behavior' #mega red zone. Yet I still said sorry and apologized for exploding. After that I was complete green zone. Anyways, some other ways I self-regulate is by punching my pillow, taking deep breaths, cuddling my dog, drawing, and other stuff.

How can you self-regulate your feelings? The are four zones the red zone, the green zone, the yellow zone, and last of all the blue zone. Each of these zones represents an emotion. The zone is when you get mad and you don't want to self-regulate. The green zone is when you ready to learn and self-regulate. The yellow zone is when are very hyper and it is hard for you to self-regulate. The blue zone is when you feel tired or sad and it is hard for you to focus and so it is hard to self-regulate. There are tools and strategy's to keep you can teach your self to be able to self-regulate yourself into being in the green zone. I have used these tools when I get mad or sad. One time I have got very mad/in the red zone because last year someone was very annoying to me but I self-regulated myself by taking deep breaths and it really helped me calm down. Having these tools helped me self-regulate and I hope these tools have helped you too.

In class for the past few weeks, we've practiced and talked about self-regulation. This is something very important both in learning and in life, and not only for kids, but for adults as well. Being self-regulated means you're calm, in control, ready to learn, and following behavioral expectations, also as you may know, the green zone. Not being self-regulated could include being in the red zone. Everyone has been in the red zone before, including being out of control, mad, or frustrated. Some people might even experience being in the red zone every day, which is totally normal. For example, I sometimes get insanely stressed out and annoyed by my homework, which puts me in the red zone. My most useful strategy to help bring me back to the green zone is taking deep breaths, closing my eyes, and concentrating on my breathing for a period of time. I also like to be somewhere peaceful and quite, preferably alone and away from distractions. So in summary, when I'm in the red zone for any kind of reason, I remind myself to be mindful of how my behaviors during that time can affect others, such as yelling at the top of my lungs, which could make others move toward the red zone, too. However, I understand that being in the red zone is not a bad thing, it's normal human behavior, and everybody goes through it. Although it's okay to be in the red zone, we also have to use our tools and strategies to bring us back to the green zone and self-regulate ourselves once again. Being able to self-regulate gives us the best learning environment and mindset we can possibly get.

Being self-regulated means you're calm, in control, ready to learn, and following behavioral expectations, or as you may know, the green zone. Not being self-regulated is also known as being in the red zone. Everyone has been in the red zone before, which can include being out of control, mad, or frustrated. Some people might even experience these emotions every day, which is totally normal. For example, I sometimes get insanely stressed out and annoyed by my homework, which puts me in the red zone. My most useful strategy to help bring me back to the green zone is taking deep breaths, closing my eyes, and concentrating on my breathing for a period of time. I also like to be somewhere peaceful and quiet, preferably alone and away from distractions. So in summary, when I'm in the red zone for any kind of reason, I remind myself to be mindful of how my behaviors during that time can affect others, such as yelling at the top of my lungs, which could make others move toward the red zone, too. However, I understand that being in the red zone is not a bad thing, it's normal human behavior, and everybody goes through it. Although it's okay to be in the red zone, we also have to use our tools and strategies to bring us back to the green zone and self-regulate ourselves once again. Being able to self-regulate gives us the best learning environment and mindset we can possibly get.

I have checked the success criteria and met the requirements.

We need self to regulate to focus on work. Drawing learning of the four regulation zones we learned that four steps can help you self-regulate. The four steps are 1. Identify which zone you are 2. Figure out why you are in this zone, what causes you to be in this zone 3. Used tools to help you get back to the green zone. For me, I have a really good strategy for getting back to the green zone while you're in the red zone. Once when I was little I always get mad but I figured this strategy that can come me down, so I somehow had a fight with my brother and I was extremely mad then I made this strategy, 1. Go to a place that you are alone, 2. Try to do something that distracts you from the things that made you mad, 3. After you come down to the yellow zone try to think positive then you'll get back to the green zone. I tried this strategy a lot of times and it works very well.

I have met the criteria.

Self regulate skills and how I can use it at home or school.

Self regulate is like a way you can be in the green zone.For example when it was around the first day I wanted to sit around with friends but because of that I got in trouble and had to move desks.I should of realized that sitting with friends wasn't a good idea and sit in a other desk.At home I can sometimes be yell at and this gets me to the red zone.So I mostly just talk about it to my self too not build up the anger but let it out maybe in a pillow maybe.

I have met the success criteria 😀.

Self regulation is very important during class. For me, on Thursday I wrote something very bad during the Q&A of the body science thing, I wrote "what is deez?". I should have known better but I thought it would be funny at that time, turns out not many people laughed. I should have gotten into trouble but Mr. Hong told me to do better next time. I will try my best to self regulate next time. When that happened I was in the blue zone, I was sad and worried that I would get in trouble, but I decided to tell Mr. Hong about it which not only made me more calm and went back to the green zone, but also I did not get in trouble. Mr. Hong is truly a funny and caring teacher.

What does self-regulation mean? Self-regulation means controlling yourself without external help. But how can we self-regulate? Self-regulation is not easy; I find it hard to self-regulate when working with friends. One way I used to self-regulate is to think about the due date of an assignment and how much time I've got until it. Then I Probably tell my friend to focus and not to distract me. I also use the strategies like drinking water and deep breathing to get back down to the green zone. I also sometimes argue with my parents, often because they asked me to do something but I didn't. I sometimes get in the red zone and lose control, but to calm down, I usually just go into my room and stay there for a while. I also try to think about something else or read a book when I'm in the red zone. These are the things I do to self-regulate.

How can i self regulate at home and in the school? Is self regulating is easy to control? The answer is no self regulating yourself is harder than you think. Imagine your talking to your family and your arguing with them you can't stop and your really mad at them! like you yell at them basically we can't stop our self were in red zone more worse. In my family. In my school example in library we always sit together with my friends but tried to be far at them so i can focus so i know what is happening. Sometimes i can't stop my self to talk to them. Even if i get in trouble. I need to put away the things i know will distract me during lessons. I need to take a deep breath so i can focus on my work. So how can i self regulate my self? i can regulate myself while watching something so i won't get bored. Go to my room lock the door turn off lights open my lamp. Grab a book from my desk! or sometimes i lock doors dancing or singing in my room! HAHAHA thats how i can self regulate my self.
Also i already met the criteria

@Gen - Good job!
FEEDBACK:
1) Check the GIVENS. Capitals - mostly your 'i's and beginning of sentences; Grammar - weird wording and you added extra words. "Is self-regulating easy to control?" Without the extra 'is'; Spelling - some of the "your" s should be 'you're'.
2) You added some unnecessary punctuation and you're also missing punctuation - You have run-on sentences. (sentence structure)
Great work Gen :)
