Join us for an insightful training session, “Practical Strategies for Challenging Behaviors in the Classroom,” led by Jimmy Guidos, Behavioral Health Specialist Coordinator at Western Youth Services. This training is designed to equip educators with brain-based approaches for effective classroom management.

What to Expect:

  • Understanding Challenging Behaviors: Learn to view student behaviors through a trauma-informed lens, understanding not just what is wrong, but what has happened to them.
  • Brain-Based Strategies: Discover practical strategies rooted in brain science to manage challenging behaviors, emphasizing the importance of the integration of the “upstairs” and “downstairs” brain functions.
  • Post-Pandemic Behavior Data: Gain insights into the current behavioral climate in classrooms, particularly the significant changes observed since the pandemic.
  • Trauma & Brain Development: Explore the impact of trauma on brain development and how it can lead to behaviors such as heightened alertness, emotional outbursts, and difficulty in self-regulation.
  • Practical Applications: Engage in hands-on activities and reflective practices to apply these strategies effectively in your classroom.

By the end of this training, educators will be better equipped to create a supportive, empathetic, and effective learning environment, transforming challenging behaviors into opportunities for growth and connection.
