Abstract

A discussion of positive interactions with students will be interlaced throughout the workshop. Educators will walk away understanding all have strengths, weakness, and differences, which can provide with strategies regarding how to handle classroom management, procedures, expectations of students and/or hard to reach students. Throughout the session ideas are woven throughout regarding building strong bonds and relationships with students through effective classroom culture. Attendees will role play scenarios with exact scripting they can take along and use the next day. As a closure, the attendees will experience a classroom community meeting around social, emotional, behavioral, and academic topics.
