Modifying Challenging Behaviors Using Positive Reinforcement
Every day, you show up for your students in ways that truly matter — often becoming one of the biggest protective factors in their lives. In Managing Challenging Classroom Behavior Using Positive Reinforcement, we’ll build on the heart of what you already do: fostering connection, safety, and growth. Together, we’ll explore how to move beyond punishment and use positive reinforcement to unlock lasting change, even with the most challenging behaviors. You’ll learn how to understand the “why” behind students’ actions, use simple and powerful strategies like the ABC model, and reinforce positive behaviors in ways that feel natural and sustainable. Through real examples, hands-on practice, and reflection, you’ll leave feeling re-energized and equipped with tools that honor the resilience of your students—and your own. This training is about recognizing your impact, building your toolkit, and making your classroom an even stronger place of hope and possibility.
