How to Use Composure Tools in the ISS Room

In addition to the many wonderful tools children will use to self-calm in the Safe Place, it is helpful to provide them with some specific tools and activities that aid them in composure.

The Free Resources Toolkit provides several downloadable reproducibles that are helpful for conducting calming activities. The Shubert is a S.T.A.R. worksheets, How Do You Feel Chart, Putting Myself Together book and others are among these free resources. In addition, the School Family Make-N-Take, available as digital downloads as part of our Premium Resource Toolkit, provides labels for making your own cranky, concentration and calming creams, a breathing star, an I Love You Ritual Glove and more.
