About this printable
Some kids cannot say I am overloaded, but they can hand you a coupon. This page cuts into six quiet-corner cards: a ten-minute reset, draw-instead-of-talk, a headphones break, a hallway walk, a teacher note, a buddy check-in. Agree on the rules before the first use so it does not become a get-out-of-math card. Keep a set at home and send two in the backpack folder. Back-to-school weeks are loud; this is a volume knob. Original wording you can photocopy for a classroom calm kit without licensing headaches. Date the coupon so the reset has an end time. Practice once on a calm Sunday so the first real use is not a negotiation. Headphones are optional; paper and a walk work if your school bans earbuds. Keep the unused cards in an envelope labeled calm, not in a junk drawer you cannot find.
