CS04: 03

This training offers approaches for identifying challenging behaviors with children of all ages within the early childhood classroom while also supporting teachers and families during the process.  We will discuss the importance of recognizing the difference between age-appropriate behavior and challenging behavior.  We will look at case studies and examples to help identify these behaviors and strategize ways to address them in the classroom, with families and how to obtain the necessary resources to address these behaviors.  Finally, we will review how to support teachers, children, and families observe and assess the success of interventions and behavior management plans.
