Feeling overwhelmed in class? It’s not just a teacher thing—your students feel it too. With exams, assignments, and fast-paced lessons, many learners struggle to stay focused, calm, and confident.

But don’t worry—small changes in your teaching approach can make a big difference. These 7 co-regulation strategies are easy to implement and help students feel safe, supported, and ready to learn. And with Class Saathi, you can make this process even more effective and fun!

✅ 1. Frequent & Friendly Check-ins

Start with simple things—a smile, a kind word, or “How can I help you?” These friendly gestures help build trust. When students feel seen and heard, their brain is better ready for learning.

✅ 2. Highlight Confusing Sections Together

Show students that confusion is okay. Take out a highlighter and read through tricky parts with them. This shows them how to tackle difficult content and builds their confidence step-by-step.

✅ 3. Chunk the Work

Don’t give the whole assignment at once. Instead, break it into small parts—one paragraph at a time or one math problem at a time. This keeps tasks from feeling scary and helps students stay on track.

✅ 4. Co-create Assessments

Let students help you design the test! Ask them what’s important, what’s tricky, and how they would like to be tested. This gives them a sense of control and reduces test stress.

✅ 5. Role-play as “Idea Recorder”

When students don’t know where to start writing, offer to be their scribe. Let them speak, and you write it down. This makes writing less scary and shows them how their ideas can come to life.

✅ 6. Map It Out Visually

Use visuals like timelines, emojis, or symbols to show deadlines and tasks. When students see what’s coming, they feel less anxious and more prepared.

✅ 7. Make It Relatable

Connect lessons to what your students already love—sports, movies, shopping, festivals, or even memes! When learning feels familiar, it sticks better.
