Reaching the Hard-to-Reach Child
Professional Development Overview
What do you do with a student who seems dead set on disrupting class daily? How do you reach someone like that? How do you build relationships with others who are difficult? This session focuses on building rapport and leadership among your students, creating unconditional positive regard for all students, including those that are hard to reach. You’ll leave the session with resources and strategies, such as diffusers and self-control, that can be implemented the next day to create a positive classroom environment, minimizing distracting interruptions. Find out how to build relationships that give respect and get respectful behaviors in return. The best part? You will learn techniques and strategies that work – and don’t cause extra work for the teacher! Teachers will find themselves with more time to teach, parents will hear more positive feedback about their children, and students will feel like a valued part of the classroom community.
