Construction Set  helps kids practice and improve the following skills:

Self Control: Managing our actions, feelings and behaviors.

Construction Set provides the “kits” for students along with a guide for their completion. This can act much like certain coloring apps in that it can help calm a student or help them to focus on something rather than a negative emotion. Because the action in the game is guided and focused, students can quickly de-escalate negative emotions by focusing on putting a kit together. 

Self Awareness: Understanding our own actions, thoughts and feelings.

Games such as Construction Set can help students by acting as a tool for de-escalating negative emotions. If students know that there are tools that can help them reframe or redirect their emotions, they are building a better sense of self-awareness. Guided play like that found in the Construction Set game can help students understand that there are productive options available for when they are feeling angry or stressed.
