It’s important to manage the emotional climate of your classroom. Children who are struggling to manage stress can’t focus on the academic tasks expected of them in a classroom By teaching kids simple, healthy and safe ways to express their emotions and calm their bodies, they will be better able to concentrate on their work during the school day. A child’s academic performance can be positively impacted by healthy coping skills.

We will learn how to help kids calm their bodies and get ready to learn in this seminar. If you want to learn how to cope in a classroom, join us as we show you how to do it.

• Walk away with a coping skills toolbox
• Deep breathing printables
• Check in sheets

Experiential learning and movement will be a part of the workshop as we try different techniques like breathing exercises and big body movements.

1. Develop strategies for teaching kids coping skills that positively impact academic performance and their ability to maintain relationships.
2. Analyze how the nervous system response of “fight, flight or freeze” is connected to stress and communicate how coping skills can be used to shift kids to a more tranquil “rest and digest” response.
3. Establish a classroom routine that allows for breaks to benefit both hypo-arousal and hyper-arousal in kids with ADHD.
4. Articulate how mindfulness and grounding techniques can be used to help children manage their symptoms of anxiety.
5. Establish methods to determine the source of stress and create a plan to eliminate shutting down or acting out.
6. Utilize specific movement-based strategies that can effectively intervene in kids’ anger responses.
