Training Objectives § Develop foundational knowledge the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics including brain development and how negative experiences during developmentally critical periods can lead to challenging behavior in the classroom § Explore tools to be able to identify, analyze, and reframe challenging behavior from your students § Provide an overview of strategies to prevent and mitigate challenging behavior in the classroom All rights reserved © 2006 -2014 Bruce D.
