<\/p>\nDeveloping children\u2019s emotional development is a really important part of maintaining good mental health and wellbeing. The Pioneer Federation uses the Zones of Regulation programme as a basis for our teaching of strategies to support developing emotional regulation and creating a toolkit of strategies to manage our ever changing emotions. \u00a0This encourages children to become more self -aware and therefore developing independence and knowledge.<\/p>\n
With our younger children we use \u2018mood monsters\u2019 to make early links with the colours of the zones system.<\/p>\n
