Foxborough Public Schools Professional Development Team is requesting that you choose your own adventure for the January 24, 2020. The day begins at 8:30 AM and sessions end at 2:30 PM with a one-hour break for lunch. All topics will be discussed in 60 minute sessions at the Ahern Middle School. Please choose which session you will attend for each of the four timeslots (8:30 - 9:30 AM, 9:45 - 10:45 AM, 12:00 - 1:00 PM, and 1:15 - 2:15 PM).
We are leading this workshop for parents at the Ahern in December. We'd love to be able to present this to interested staff in January as well. Here is a description of our proposed session:
This workshop will provide a foundation for educators to learn an alternative way to address and help children and adolescents with challenging behaviors. In the same way that kids with learning disabilities struggle with thinking skills in areas like reading, math, or writing, research has shown that behaviorally challenging children lack thinking skills related to flexibility, frustration tolerance and problem solving.
