Positive Discipline in the Classroom Certification Workshop

With Joy Marchese

ABOUT THE 3-DAY INSTITUTE

Are you ready to stop “managing” students and learn tools for effective classroom leadership? Are you looking for a social emotional learning program that is woven into and consistent with your discipline program? Are you looking for ways to build a structure of trust and respect among school staff? This interactive Positive Discipline in the Classroom workshop is designed for teachers, counselors, school staff, and administrators who want an effective discipline approach that integrates social and emotional learning while reducing challenging student behaviors. Attendees will earn recognition as Certified Positive Discipline Classroom Educator.

LEARN, REFLECT & APPLY

Now, more than ever, teachers need applicable tools that can help them create connection and a sense of community with their students, parents, and colleagues.

Through experiential activities, we will provide you with the necessary tools to create a classroom climate that enhances academic learning, uses encouragement rather than praise and rewards, instill valuable social skills and positive behavior through the use of class meetings, and help you to understand the motivation behind students' behavior instead of looking for blame.
