Three things to try first

Check the

basics

Look at what might be underlying the behavior or making the behavior harder (sleep, hunger, health, environment).

Reconnect before

you redirect

A calm, connected relationship creates safety in kids so they can know what to expect.

Focus on skill development

Challenging behavior often means there is a missing skill. Once we identify the underdeveloped skill, we can TEACH it.

Workshop Attendee
Educator

[Her keynote taught] the importance of the environment and to take a moment and not just quickly ask a student why they are doing a troubling behavior, but to consider what is going on in their life causing them to respond that way. I also appreciated the humor and the direct stories for application

Annie
Assistant Teacher

She is very personable, engaging, and has so much knowledge. It was great and [the other teachers] should’ve come with us! I have a whole list of ideas to share with the three year old classroom.
