Understanding Behaviour through the Lens of SelfRegulation (Yrs 1- 8)

Mindfulness, Resilience and Work-Life Balance (K-TAFE)

How to distinguish between maladaptive and growthpromoting modes of managing stress; between misbehaviour and stress-behaviour; between laziness and processes deep inside the brain that impede learning or effort; and most importantly, what to do about it in the classroom.

The pressures of the last three years have challenged us in ways we have never anticipated. This program is designed to assist in the steps required to maintain work life balance and the development of constructive strategies to increase personal resources in times of challenge and stress. It will explore the central concepts of mindfulness and personal resilience.

Behaviour Education in K-6 Play is the Way® Workshop One

Using authentic scenarios, you will plan and practise an approach that feels comfortable to implement in the weeks that follow.

This one-day workshop gives you the opportunity to experience the program just as you would deliver it to your students – by doing it!
