This is NOT a Behavior Chart Workshop

 BEHAVIORS ARE GETTING HARDER AND PUNISHMENTS AND REWARDS ARE A BAND-AID.
50 STRATEGIES TO TRANSFORM BEHAVIOR IN THE CLASSROOM THROUGH LOVE, TRUST & CONNECTION.

An on-demand replay from a live virtual workshop with Kristen Day and Churmell Mitchell

 


Grab your coffee or drink because we are going there.

You did not become a teacher so you could spend your days managing meltdowns, bribing kiddos with sticker charts, and moving clips up and down a rainbow. You became a teacher because you love children and you want to make a difference. You wanted to be THAT teacher they remember forever.

But we know that some days you are exhausted before 9am.  Behvaiors are getting more intense as screens take over children's' lives.  You've maybe tried the charts or bucket filling books (I did both once upon a time). You have tried the reward systems (desk pets anyone??). You have googled "behavior strategies for preschool" at 10pm in your pajamas and still feel like you want to poke your own eyeball out every single day.

We hear you. And we have got something for you!!


Here is the tea...

Those behaviors are not defiance. They are communication. When children act out, act up, or shut down, they are telling you something. They are telling you they are not filled up. And when we learn how to fill them up BEFORE the behaviors show up, your days are sure to get a bit easier and your relationships with your kiddos get stronger. Your classroom becomes the place you always dreamed it would be.


So what IS this workshop then?

Churmell Mitchell and I are coming to your couch, your kitchen table, or wherever you park yourself on Tuesday nights, and we are spending a couple hours giving you 50 real, practical, ready-to-use strategies across five areas:

⭐ Connection ⭐ Questioning ⭐ Routine ⭐ Emotional Skill Building ⭐ Environment and Culture

We are also getting into the REAL reason children misbehave and how  PLAY (you know I can't do any workshop without talking about play) can be one of your most powerful tools for reducing challenging behaviors in your classroom. This is 90 minutes of your teacher besties dumping every strategy they know straight into your brain.

💛 And you are ready to stop poke-your-eyeball-out-level frustrated and start actually liking your job again.
