What if you had both an understanding of the real root of negative behavior and the right tools to do something about it?! All educators are aware of the alarming increase in behavioral disruptions in school settings. Often less understood is the critical role that the brain plays in shaping all behavior, including the challenges we face in our classrooms and beyond. Blending the latest neuroscience with practical classroom/school application, this course will be your guide to wake up the creative, curious, problem-solving "upstairs" brain of our students, staff, and even those we interact with in our personal lives. ~ Based on the book by Jessica Sinarski
