Tiered Support Play Box

A flexible toolkit that adapts to student needs—supporting whole classes, small groups, and individuals with practical strategies and activities.

What’s Inside

• Tier 1 — Whole Class: Morning rituals, Calm Breathing Cards, affirmation prompts, visual routines.
• Tier 2 — Small Groups: Check-in charts, guided journaling, role-play activities, peer-support norms.
• Tier 3 — Individual: Personalized calm kits, step-by-step coping strategies, teacher/counselor one-on-one support.

How to Use the Play Box

1. Start with Tier 1 strategies for all students to set a consistent foundation.
2. For students who need extra help, add Tier 2 tools in small groups.
3. When challenges persist, apply Tier 3 supports with targeted one-on-one strategies.

Why It Works

A tiered approach ensures every student gets the right level of support. Universal practices build community, small-group tools target common challenges, and individualized supports provide intensive help when needed.
