Positive Paths: A Guide to Behavior Management is designed for early childhood educators seeking effective, positive, and developmentally appropriate strategies to guide children’s behavior. We will move beyond simple “discipline” and explore the “why” behind children’s actions, equipping you with the tools to create a supportive and thriving learning environment where all children can succeed. Course length – 2.0 hours.

The course will help answer the following questions:

• What are some practical solutions to challenging behaviors?

• What are some engaging activities I can do to help with these behaviors?

• How can I approach challenging behavior before it happens?

Participants who successfully complete this course will be able to:

• Implement proactive strategies to create a classroom environment that prevents challenging behaviors before they start.

• Apply positive and respectful reactive strategies to address challenging behaviors when they occur.

• Utilize a variety of tools and activities to teach children emotional regulation, problem-solving, and social skills.
