Tackling Challenging Behaviors with INSIGHT: if you could only use one method in the classroom, it should be asking questions. Join us to learn how this teaching strategy can enhance every aspect of your classroom from how to walk in the hallway, play safely on the playground, sit in circle time, move during centers, speak to each other – everything!
