Workshop Information: During this interactive anti-bias on-line workshop, we will investigate the underlying roots of some of the most common behaviours we see in our Centres and classrooms today. How do we support children who may be dealing with anger issues? Together we will explore the means to address the triggers, unpack Erick Erickson's stages of Psychosocial Development and discover how to replace frustration with effective compassionate and supportive management skills that will promote and maintain a safe, peaceful and productive place to learn and play. Through engaging activities, demos, and discussions, you will acquire and array of practical strategies that can prevent or defuse disruptive behaviours, while bringing a sense of joy, productivity, respect and calm into your program.
