Positive Behavior Management speaks to the fact that all difficult behavior is not the result of poor choices. Sometimes children aren’t making poor choices but rather have unmet needs that we don’t understand. In order to meet these needs, we must have a basic understanding of what they are. The course includes several videos introducing books to use with the children to help them understand special needs in themselves or in their friends or family members.  Course length  – 2.0 hours.
