Workshops

Our full-day and multi-day workshops help teachers master the foundations of effective classroom management.  With guided practice and realistic scenarios, teachers learn how to master routines and procedures to prevent behavioral issues before they arise, how to create positive relationships to foster a true community in the classroom, and how to put an end to power struggles for good with effective limit setting!

It's engaging, fun, hands-on, and teachers leave with actionable strategies and a simple framework for making real changes right away! 


On-Going Support

We offer coaching, classroom observations, support for administration, and collaborative work sessions with individual teachers, grade levels, or PLCs.  We love working with schools that want on-going support and follow-up sessions (virtual or in-person) after a full-day workshop! True transformation comes with guided practice and on-going support!

The Setting Limits Framework

Supporting teachers, empowering students, transforming schools

  • Enhance Classroom Structure

    Learn strategies to teach procedures so your classroom is well-organized, safe, and so your systems runs seamlessly. Routines prevent management issues before they arise and we'll teach you how to teach the most important procedures for elementary, middle, and high school classrooms!

  • Build Strong Class Community

    Learn techniques to cultivate a positive and inclusive classroom culture where every student feels valued and respected. Learning starts with connection and we will help you connect with even those difficult students and build a strong classroom community focused on learning and excellence!

  • Master Limit Setting

    Gain the skills to balance being firm, fair, and fun while you teach and manage your classes! Learn how to effectively set limits, administer consequences with even the most challenging students, and put an end to power struggles for good!

  • From Management to Empowerment

    With our practical strategies and classroom ready tools, teachers move from simply managing their students and responding to behavior issues to empowering students to own their behavior, make positive choices, and learn essential problem-solving skills so they can focus on what matters most- learning and growing.
