How can educators respond to challenging behavior in an effective, compassionate manner that maintains the dignity of children? How can students learn to view their own mistakes as learning opportunities? This workshop introduces concrete techniques that will empower children to feel ownership over rules and routines and to self-regulate in difficult moments.
