Correct Answer: C,B,A

Rationale: To effectively support Michael in developing self-regulation skills, the initial focus should be on calming him down (C). When emotions run high, it’s essential to help him neutralize his stress response, allowing for clearer thinking. Once he is calmer, the next step is to assist him in naming and controlling his overwhelming feelings (B), which fosters emotional awareness. Finally, guiding him in choosing strategies for resolving the situation (A) can promote problem-solving skills. Addressing these steps in this order ensures a constructive learning experience.
