Description

As the leader of a K-5 classroom, you know more about your students throughout the year than anyone in the building (and sometimes even the parents). Your careful eye is crucial to the academic, social, and emotional development of your students – and you know when something is “off.”

Students who are struggling with mental health issues are often first identified through their behavior, which, while developmentally appropriate, makes it hard to know how to respond effectively.

Join child/adolescent behavioral expert and former educator Cheryl Catron, M.Ed., LPCC-S, RPT-S, in this compelling recording that will transform your perception of and response to emotional and behavior problems in your classroom, including:

  • Tantrums and meltdowns
  • Impulsivity
  • Running out of the room
  • Perfectionism and rigidity
  • Suicidal ideation and behavior
  • Sensory issues
  • Refusal to do work
  • Difficulty with transitions
  • Disrupting others
  • Irritability, lashing out, aggressive behavior
  • Overt self-harm (head banging, hitting self)
  • School avoidance

Don’t miss this unique training that’s sure to have you furiously writing down notes, ideas, and plans to transform your approach with the students who need you the most. Purchase today!
