Incredible Years® Child (Dinosaur School) Classroom Dina Curriculum

October 2nd – 4th 2018 (Bangor) with Anne Breese

This three-day workshop, facilitated by Anne Breese, presents aspects of effective classroom management skills including: proactive teaching strategies, use of encouragement and incentives to enhance social and emotional competence, strategies to manage mis-behaviour in the classroom and to foster positive relationships with difficult students and collaborative approaches to working with parents and enhancing home/school connections.
