DESCRIPTION:
In this episode, Tem dives into the common mistakes educators make when dealing with behaviour in the classroom, and how those strategies can unintentionally make things worse. From punitive responses to ignoring root causes, we unpack outdated methods that fail to support long-term growth or emotional regulation. You’ll come away with a clearer understanding of what to avoid, and more importantly, what to do instead to build a calmer, more connected classroom.
