On today's show, we're going to dive into behavior once again.

I feel like it's such a broad topic that we could cover it week after week and it still not be something that very many of us are comfortable with.

So I've got Carly Hughes here with us today from Behind Behaviors, which is her educational consulting company created for families and caregivers of students with unique learning needs in the areas of emotional and behavioral functioning and specialized instruction.

Carly is going to chat with us about helping teachers support student behaviors in the the classroom. Listen in as we discuss:

• Some of the most common things a student might be trying to communicate through behavior
• What to say to teachers who say the child is just “acting out for attention”
• Some quick strategies to address small behaviors before they become extreme behaviors
• How to deal with extreme student behaviors and suggestions for helping teachers once things have escalated?
• How to find a balance between letting a student have some autonomy while maintaining a safe learning environment for everyone

Carly also discusses

• The importance of modeling self-regulation strategies
• Delaying consequences, and
• How to establish a routine that is fair and equitable for all students
