(In-Person) Getting Unstuck: Pyramid Model Strategies for When Behavior Challenges Adults
Tuesday May 19, 2026 9:00am - 12:00pm EDT
In this session, participants will examine their own beliefs and reactions to behaviors that challenge adults and plan intentional responses to neutralize implicit bias. Participants will then extend the problem-solving to planning targeted social-emotional instruction to prevent instances of behavior that challenges adults in the classroom. In addition to planning, participants will explore multisensory supports to include each and every learner in robust social-emotional learning in the classroom. Strategies will align to Pyramid Model implementation.
