ENGAGE 2024 Professional Learning Conference

Many classroom behaviors arise because students do not know how to self regulate. The Safe Place is a self regulation center used in classrooms all over the world. Many classrooms have a "calm corner" but do students know what to do when they get there? Do you find them using it for the wrong reasons like work avoidance. The Safe Place gives structure to your "calm corner" and teaches kids the research based steps to self regulation. Once students know the steps, they can use The Safe Place independently for self regulation. The Safe Place is not a one sized fits all either! It can be tailored to each classroom and setting. It is not just for Elementary! There are Safe Places in middle and high schools as well. We even have had a staff Safe Place! This session will teach about the steps to self regulation, how to teach those to students, and how to set up a Safe Place in your setting.
