In this training, educators will be invited to shift their perspective from managing the classroom toward developing the child without abandoning their goal of a positive learning environment with minimal disruptions.

Through a combination of theory, experiential activities and practical applications for the classroom, participants will examine the limitation and risks of focusing on management of children versus the benefits of focusing on promotion and prevention strategies to develop children’s social, emotional , relational, and relational skills.

Appropriate for Pre-K through High School educators.

Hear Laura discuss moving from classroom management toward child development using attuned communication on the Early Childhood Research Podcast, Episode 19.
