K-12 “Shouting Won’t Grow Dendrites: 20 Techniques for Managing a Brain-compatible Classroom”

Date:  October 6, 2016

Have you ever noticed that the louder reactive teachers get when reprimanding students, the louder the students also become?  Learn ways to proactively manage a brain-compatible classroom without ever raising your voice! Alleviate at least 50% of your behavior problems just by getting to know each student, setting up the physical environment and delivering engaging lessons; another 40% by developing a comprehensive management plan; and the most challenging 10% by using techniques for chronic behavior disorders such as oppositional or conduct disorder.

Participants in this session will learn techniques for:

• Developing a relationship with each student;
• Creating a classroom environment conducive to learning and a home environment which alleviates stress;
• Engaging students in brain-compatible strategies;
• Developing a management plan with rituals, celebrations, and consequences; and
• Gaining confidence in dealing with the most difficult behavior challenges.

This highly-engaging and practical session has been called both professionally and personally life changing!
