Dear Parents/Guardians:

Your child, _____________________, has been invited to participate in a self regulation group
with the SDSU School Counseling Trainees, Monica Rodela and Reva Ballat. This group has
been created to provide students with extra time to learn self-regulation skills with a small
group of peers. The group will meet once each week for 6 weeks and will last
approximately 30 minutes.

The curriculum teaches a variety of skills including:

· awareness of emotions
· strategies to control impulsiveness
· calming tools
· problem solving skills

Your child may also be asked to practice their new skills with family members and friends.
For example, your child may be asked to practice telling you how they feel, or may be asked
to practice deep breathing.

Your permission is requested for your student to participate in the group. Please sign and
return this form if your child has permission to participate in this activity. If you have any
questions, please feel free to contact the school counseling office.
