The Psychology Behind Behavior
Course Instructor
Course Description
This training is a must-have for all teachers and parents of young children. This unique workshop blends the worlds of psychology and early childhood to help you understand why children (and adults) behave the way they do. We’ll take a deep dive into classroom behavior and look at how the brain develops and influences behavior, as well as typical reasons why children misbehave. Teachers will walk away with a better understanding of why the children are doing what they are doing and insights into their own reactions. We’ll discuss concrete strategies for helping children through challenging behaviors so that teachers feel equipped to handle the children in their classrooms.
