Behavior Management through Rhythm and Ritual

Eliminate behavior problems before they begin!

The key to a safe, enriching learning environment is structures and routines.  Young people do best when they have a sense of containment about their spaces – where things go, what is expected of them, rules, consequences, processes and procedures.  Basically, they need consistency.  This workshop offers hands-on strategies for teachers to put in place that empower youth to sustain a highly structured environment for themselves to feel safe and to be creative within. 

In this learning experience you will:

• Consider various learning styles and their connection to children's behavior
• Access the expressive arts (music, stories, creative movement) as ways to build a safe, positive and peaceful environment in your classroom
• Practice giving clear and simple directions in dynamic and engaging ways so that students feel supported, rather than confused
