The 3 Questions That Change Behavior-A Regulation-First Parent & Teacher Tool
The 3 Questions That Change Behavior is a simple Regulation-First™ tool designed to help parents, educators, and support teams respond to behavior through the lens of nervous system regulation rather than punishment or control.
Instead of reacting immediately to behavior, this framework helps adults pause and ask:
• What is the body feeling right now?
• What does the body need?
• What support will help the child succeed?
This resource includes:
• Regulation-first explanation pages
• Real classroom example
• Real parent example
• Simple visual reference page
Ideal for:
• Parents
• Teachers
• Special education
• Inclusion classrooms
• Emotional regulation support
• Regulation-informed behavior support

Hi, I’m Katie Wiseman, a special educator with more than 25 years of experience supporting students with disabilities, families, and school teams. My work is built around a simple but powerful idea: behavior is often the last domino.
Before we respond to behavior, we have to look at regulation, safety, connection, predictability, and the environment. When adults understand what may be underneath the behavior, they can design calmer spaces, reduce overwhelm, and restore access to learning, communication, and belonging.
This store offers practical, regulation-informed tools for classrooms, homes, routines, transitions, and adult response. My goal is to help teachers and families move from control to clarity — and from reaction to repair.
