Causes of Misbehavior

Presented by:

Pam Pace

Why do some children come to depend on challenging behaviors while others discover better, more effective ways to get what they want?  Generally, children use negative behavior when they lack the skills that would help them meet their needs. Teachers who take time to assess the reason for misbehavior are better able to teach children new social-emotional skills.  This session focuses on the common reasons that children misbehave, a crucial first step in determining how to prevent/reduce challenging behaviors.  You must pre-register for this class.

Behavior Intervention Strategies

Presented by:

Pam Pace

You want me to try what?

Teachers who care for children with behavioral difficulties, often find themselves reacting in ways that reinforce the behavior and make it worse.  Behavioral intervention strategies are planned responses to behaviors that help teachers prepare for situations in which past responses have not been successful.  This session focuses on helping participants develop new responses to challenging behaviors using six key intervention strategies.
