Learned Helplessness:
When does helping a child become too much help? In this workshop the focus will be on the definition of learned helplessness and how to combat dependency. Through sample scenarios we will discover how learned helplessness can occur in school or at home and possible solutions to empower the child. Discussion of age appropriate chores will help teach those important living skills that will transform our children into independent and resilient adults.

11:15 AM
The ABC’s of Behavior:
As a result of this workshop, participants will be able to look at how behavior influences our lives and understanding how it is addressed in IDEA 2004. You will become familiar with the ABC’s (Antecedent, Behavior & Consequence) of all behavior supports and behavior management. Functional Behavioral Assessments will be covered and you will have an opportunity to practice using a FBA tool to assess behavior.

12:45PM
Taming the Tornado:
Understanding and Managing ADHD at Home and at School - This workshop provides a general overview of ADHD – describing what ADHD is, the common Myths associated with the diagnosis, a deeper look at females with ADHD, and early indicators that may be overlooked.
