The Zones Curriculum

The Zones Curriculum is a social-emotional learning program that helps individuals identify and manage their emotions by categorizing feelings into five color-coded zones: Blue (calm, sad), Green (neutral, okay), Yellow (anxious, frustrated), Orange (angry, impulsive), and Red (overwhelmed, out of control). It encourages self-awareness and regulation by teaching people to recognize their current zone, understand its impact, and use appropriate strategies to shift to a more positive state. The goal is to promote emotional well-being, resilience, and healthier interactions.
