1-2-3 RESET

1-2-3 RESET™ is a trauma-sensitive framework that is embedded in evidence-based approaches created by Heather Schmidt, MS, OTR/L, and Dawn Paulson, MS, OTR/L, to support students’ ability to access their education. The approach supports kindergarten through 3rd grade students in the areas of Relationship, Environment, Self-Regulation, Empowerment, and Task to improve their mental health and well-being. Data collected from teachers using 1-2-3 RESET™ in their classrooms shows the following: Increased teacher knowledge of the impact of trauma on learning Increased use of embedded strategies in the classroom by teachers and students Increased student knowledge of their brain and strategies to support learning Increased student regulation = increased ability to participate & learn! Teachers learn about the 1-2-3 RESET™ key concepts along with practical ways to embed strategies into their classroom through training, coaching, modeling, and/or accessing the plethora of resources provided by the program. The 8-week curriculum is designed to complement a school’s current social-emotional learning (SEL) curriculum. We encourage starting with 1-2-3 RESET™ first so students can receive maximum benefit from both approaches, as they will have developed the necessary self-regulation skills to engage effectively in the SEL lessons.
