Teachers who create positive social environments find that children more easily develop the social emotional skills they need to succeed. This session focuses on modifications teachers can make in six key areas in the environment that will prevent and reduce conflict that leads to challenging behaviors.

When a child uses challenging behaviors at school, parents and teachers need to work together to address the issue. However, when discussing behavior problems parents often feel blamed by the teachers and the teachers often feel unsupported by the parents. This session focuses on developing strategies and skills to make these conversations more productive for everyone...especially the child! Participants will learn how to set the stage for and successfully conduct these difficult conversations with parents.

This learning event is for Adult, Child, and Infant CPR certification. This is designed to help individuals recognize and respond to an emergency and demonstrate the three emergency action steps. Proper CPR techniques will be demonstrated during the training event. Participants will also be able to identify signals of a breathing emergency. The instructors will assess knowledge gained through guided video skill practice and instructor feedback. Feedback on outcome mastery will be provided throughout the session and during the evaluation process.

This class will take place on November 18th
