Summary

* IN PERSON TRAINING IN CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO * Challenging behavior is a significant problem in early childhood classroom settings. The research tells us that conflicts occur at a rate of 60 conflicts per hour in a preschool classroom. That equates to 1 conflict per minute. What if there was something we could do to prevent challenging behavior? This session focuses on our perceptions of behavior and what can be done to prevent challenging behavior with strategies to teach social skills, behavior, and limits.
