Event Description
Classroom teachers are consistently tasked with a multitude of expectations. In order to accomplish all of the daily responsibilities, behavior management is a necessary component of the classroom. Whether teaching kindergarten or at a high school level or any grade level in between, simple, consistent classroom practices can ensure that behavior challenges do not disrupt the demands of the school day. This presentation will discuss basics of behavior management in a classroom setting and provide efficient tools that will ensure the school day is filled with learning and not just redirections.
Participants will be able to:
- Identify the reasons why problem behavior occurs
- Implement strategies that will prevent problem behavior from occurring
- Define clear, consistent expectations for student behavior in their classroom
- Ensure that students continue to meet the behavior expectations in order to create the best possible learning environment
