Pre-Registration Required

This session will focus on building and improving relationships with children, increasing their school readiness, and navigating behavioral and academic mediation. First, we will explore brain structure and function. Next, we will discuss strategies that help mediate children through the learning process while looking at structures of language that help us navigate through daily interactions and conflict. Finally, we will build strategies that help build planning skills that reduce anger, frustration, and anxiety in the home and classroom. Please note this session will NOT be recorded.
