Strategies for Behavior Management inthe Classroom
Guest Speaker: Kathy Magnusson, Wildewood Learning
Have you ever found yourself shaking your head and asking, “What’s wrong with this child? Why does he act this way? She’s making such poor choices?” What if we asked, “What has happened to this child?” This hands-on workshop explores the basic effects of trauma (both big and small) on learning and the neuroscience of the mind-body connection. You will learn strategies that you can use to stay centered in challenging situations and address behaviors with the knowledge of brain science, stress, and stages of development to create the safety needed for real learning to occur in your classroom.
