TRAININGS & WORKSHOPS

Great for all teachers, particularly newbies. Spend time talking about ways to create classroom expectations and rules that are fun and interactive. We will discuss how to involve your students in creating classroom rules, teaching them over time and creating fun visuals for the classroom. We will also discuss different systems, such as reward systems how to tie them into schoolwide PBIS, as well as warning and classroom consequence systems to support student behavior and slow the process of school based consequences and getting kicked out of the classroom.

Spend time learning what it means to have a trauma informed approach as an educator. We will spend time discussing the trauma students may face and how this shapes their behavior over time. Leave this training feeling equipped as an educator with the skills and tools to help engage and support students that have experienced trauma over time. 

When a student misbehaves, it may be a sign that the student is trying to tell us that something is not working for them in their learning environment. Share and discuss behaviors displayed in the classroom and strategies to intervene on these behaviors. Learn about whole group strategies, as well as individual supports that can help improve behavior over time. We will also discuss how our responses influence the behavior of others and how to respond effectively.

Learn about the functional relationship between behavior and the environment. We will discuss the four reasons behavior may be occurring and how to work to increase positive behaviors over time. By understanding the "function" of behavior we can build and create supportive learning environments to support each individual student. 

A great training for all staff working in the classroom, as well as PBIS team members who support and coach teachers. We will spend time looking at different data collection methods, practice using these methods, as well as how to graph and read the visual analysis to help monitor behavior and interventions. 

We all have those students who are fidgety at their desks, have a hard time concentration and struggle with executive functioning. Here we will take a look at ADD and ADHD as many students need support in the classroom. We will discuss how to support them in their learning environment and what types of behavior strategies may be effective. Leave with a better understanding of ADD/ADHD and tactics to support teachers and students. 

Ever feel like you or your staff are over prompting students? Wanting to find ways to push for more independence? Here we will discuss the different levels of prompting from most to least restrictive, as well as when it is appropriate to use each of them. We will learn about skill acquisition and prompt fading to support the process of learning new skills over time.
