If you’ve ever felt at a loss for how to support a student who cries over everything… or melts down in frustration when things don’t go their way… this episode is for you.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing two real-life case studies of students with big emotions and big reactions and how I’ve supported them in the moment and over time using a combination of observation, behavior analysis, and social-emotional teaching strategies.
In this episode I share:
- What to look for when tracking disruptive behaviors
- How to identify what a student’s behavior is really communicating
- Ideas for breaks, routines, and visual supports that actually help
- What to say (and not say) when a student has an emotional outburst
- How to teach size-of-the-problem and emotional regulation skills
- The difference between quick fixes and long-term support
