~Up Yours Behavior Training: An Uplifting Training Designed to Take Your Behavior Management Practices to a Higher Level! - Day 1: Preventing Disruptive Behavior - Presented by Kevin Dill
Session One: Preventing Disruptive Behavior - In this opening session, educators will learn the behavior formula which provides insight into elements driving disruptive behavior including maladaptive thinking patterns, functions of behavior, and a student’s disintegrated (upside down) brain. From the root comes the fruit of behavior. Gaining insight from the behavior formula provides a pathway forward to strategy selection. Kevin uncovers powerful thinking and action habits teachers can adopt, along with one of the most powerful strategies used to prevent disruptive behavior in the classroom: the teacher’s approach. Participants will explore the powerful technique called nudging as Kevin provides examples of behavioral, cognitive, social, and emotional nudges used to influence maladaptive students to think differently and make better behavioral choices without taking away their freedom to choose not to.
