7 am to 2 pm PT / 8 am to 3 pm MT / 9 am to 4 pm CT / 10 am to 5 pm ET (includes a one-hour lunch break)

Presented by Jessica Sprick

CHAMPS for grades K–8 and DSC (Discipline in the Secondary Classroom) for grades 9–12 are proactive, positive, and instructional approaches to classroom management. Improving student behavior requires teachers and other staff who understand how to implement a variety of practical strategies to promote responsible behavior and improve student motivation. Learn ways to support the wide range of students in your classroom, including those who have experienced significant trauma, students with identified disabilities, and students who do the bare minimum just to get by. Learn how to teach all students to behave in a responsible manner, improve behavior in transitions, reduce off-task behavior during instructional activities, and use positive feedback and corrective consequences more effectively. This session will also provide strategies for organizing your classroom for student success, communicating and following through with clear expectations for student behavior, and motivating students to do their best.
