If you find classroom management challenging, you are not alone. This training is the first in a 2-part series that will help you look at and handle student behavior in a different way.

In part 1, “Preventing Challenging Behaviors”, you will discover ways to set up and manage your classroom that will help to stop behaviors before they start!

Part 2, “Responding to Challenging Behaviors”, delves into how to handle behaviors once they occur. You will be shown ways to respond to minor day-to-day behaviors as well as a step-by-step plan for handling chronic, more serious behaviors.
While we offer no magic solutions, come join us to create your own “bag of tricks” to help manage behaviors.

Note: both trainings will be held IN-PERSON at the FirstSpark office in Newport News.

IMPORTANT: You will automatically be registered for part 2, “Responding to Challenging Behaviors”. It will be held on Thursday, Feb. 13.

Trainer: Diane Postman

If you have trouble registering, the training might be full.  To be added to the waitlist, contact Eric Postman at epostman@firstsparkva.org
