Executive Function!
The Impact Academy is excited to announce a new project we are starting with the children! TIA directors have been working with The Rural Opportunity Institute the last few months. ROI works to support trauma-informed and resilient communities. They are who provided some of the resources you received in last month’s family engagement activity. The next couple of months, we are focusing on executive function with the preschoolers.
Resilience Skill Development
The Three R's
It’s hard to engage with a person when their emotions are high or if they are distressed. Practice the “Three R’s” to help engage with your child and other family members when they have high or low emotions.
Regulate: First, we must help the child to regulate and calm their amped up emotions of fighting, fleeing, or freezing/shutting down.
Relate: Second, we must relate and connect with the child through an attuned and sensitive relationship.
Reason: We can support the child to reflect, learn, remember, articulate, and become self-assured.
Rapid Reset Skill to Help Regulate
Resilience is about being able to thrive in life when struggles occur. Rapid Reset skills will help children figure out ways to self-regulate their physical, emotional, and mental state in order to better engage with the environment and people around them.
