In this Webinar

When students are in an emotionally dysregulated state—overwhelmed with big emotions—they are not in the ideal brain or body state for learning. In addition, remaining in a chronic state of dysregulation compromises their physical and mental well-being. As an educator, you may often witness your students using behavior to communicate this brain-and-body dysregulation.

In this quick reference guide, Jodi Place uses brain science to explain how student behavior is a form of communication that teachers need to learn how to interpret and respond to in helpful ways.
