"Yelling Doesn't Work"

 

Presenter: Rebecca Goniwich 

Date: Wednesday, February 13th 

Location: Memorial Hall Library 

Time: 7 - 9 pm

 

What you can do to help a child comply at home and the classroom using
positive behavior supports.  Yelling does not teach the necessary skills
the child needs to learn in order to comply.  This workshop provides
insight into why a child with special needs misbehaves and how changing
your behavior will in turn change theirs.  Learn to recognize the
function of behavior and how a front-end approach will show results.
Functional Assessments, which are at the heart of a Positive Behavior
Support Plan, are discussed at length and sample plans are provided. 

 

This workshop was created by Rebecca Goniwich, Barbara Gopen Memorial
Fellow, in collaboration with Federation For Children With Special
Needs.  Rebecca Goniwich is also co-chair of the Sudbury Special
Education Advisory Council.

 

All are welcome.
