This two-session course will discuss predicting and noticing signs of escalating behavioral difficulties in students. It will provide participants with strategies to engage students in these most challenging moments, and strategies to help de-escalate and calm difficult situations. This course will introduce participants to the Positive Behavior Support approach on individual, class, and school-wide levels. The core practices of PBS, such as defining expectations, teaching children how to meet expectations, and acknowledging student success will be addressed.
