Based on Dr.MacLeod’s ASCD book, From Behaving to Belonging: The Inclusive Art of Supporting Students That Challenge Us, this webinar provides educators and parents with practical strategies for shifting from a “behavior management” mindset (one that punishes students for “bad” behavior or rewards students for “good” or “compliant” behavior) to an approach that supports all students with kindness, creativity, acceptance, and love.
Participants will learn what’s going on in the brain when students display challenging behavior and will leave with tons of strategies for supporting students before, during and after big emotions.
