Working with Feisty and Tenacious Temperament Traits.

The reality is, some children are just born magically passionate and delightfully determined. Unfortunately, in early childhood groups, these traits can disrupt even the calmest setting. 

During this engaging session, Working with Feisty and Tenacious Temperament Traits, you will: 

• Identify strategies to reduce negative behaviors and successfully work with children with highly intense and highly persistence temperament traits
• Explore common triggers that lead to the negative behaviors associated with these traits such as tantrums, aggression, power-struggles, and pushing your limits
• Collect methods to help children learn to manage strong feelings, calm independently, and master the stressful moments they experience. The strategies you gain will help maintain a calm learning environment as well as teach the child the skills needed for future success!

You gain 2 training hours 

All participants who fully complete the course will receive a training certificate for 2-training hours. To receive your training hours, you will need to log in to Zoom to participate in chats/polls  as you apply the concepts to your environment and complete a brief evaluation survey.  Participants must not miss more than 15 minutes of the session. During the session, you must not be responsible for the care of young children or driving a car.
