A Bonus 90 Minute Workshop on Habits

Workshop Topics and Details
Power of Understanding: How to understand behavior to reduce its effect on our stress response.
This workshop explores how understanding behavior can reduce its impact on our stress response. We’ll examine helpful vs. unhelpful thinking patterns around behavior, understand behavior as a form of communication, and learn to interpret it through the lens of the 5 Needs. We'll also cover techniques for regulating our stress response, including thought exercises, perspective-taking, and goal setting.
Power of Regulation: Regulating ourselves to help regulate our students
This workshop teaches how teachers can use cognitive-behavioral strategies, Buddhist techniques, and perspective-taking with compassion and empathy to significantly reduce negative thought patterns and rumination. We’ll also explore strategies for improving restful sleep, reducing triggers in the classroom and with colleagues, and grounding techniques to respond calmly to student behavior. Additionally, we'll discuss co-regulation strategies that help students manage their own emotions through the teacher’s regulated response.
Power of Sensory: Understanding sensory needs to improve student regulation
This workshop introduces three senses we weren’t taught about in school:
- Vestibular: Balance, processed through the inner ear
- Proprioception: Body awareness, processed through the nerves and sheaths on muscles and bones
- Interoception: Internal sensations
Emerging research shows that many student behaviors and anxiety stem from sensory processing issues that trigger their stress response. In this workshop, you'll learn how sensory processing impacts students' stress responses and behavior. We’ll also cover how to set up sensory-friendly spaces in your classroom, provide sensory experiences when students need them, and interpret when students need sensory support or other interventions.

from 18 reviewsMy ADHD and ASD 11 year old daughter is often labelled as defiant and difficult but this kit has been a game changer for her teachers and learning team to understand what is behind her behaviour and giving her a voice.
She attends a private, (very expensive) school which has not really progressed past one size fits all approach where they try and force neurodiverse kids to fit the standard mould. I bought this kit for the school and took them through it in person. They are now going to adapt its strategies into their classrooms.
As my daughter says, she shouldn't be treated as different. They should learn how to be more inclusive.
Thank you so much for your passion and efforts with this toolkit. 🙏🙏
These toolkits are essential for any teacher. They empower and enable you to address the root cause of behavior and not just put a bandaid fix or temporary solution on it. Rewards and punishments are poorly designed bandaid solutions that do more harm then good. I love how this resource really enables you to meet the needs of all students and be proactive.
I took a break from classroom teaching because I was not equipped to lead a class and manage behavior. Student teaching during the height of vocid really didn't help. I am returning to the classroom and invested in this resource because I know it will help me be my best and help me meet my students needs and set up systems that meet my students needs.
I have dug into the Environmental toolkit as I plan my classroom next year and and added all kinds of things to my Amazon wishlist to make a classroom environment that will be prevent behavior challenges. With the strategies of using colored tape and color coding parts of my classroom, making the classroom more sensory friendly with light covers and more comfortable. When I design my seating chart and my seating layout I know to consider things like students being able to see the door. I have thought of some ideas and activities I will do to have students help decorate the classroom to feel a sense of ownership over it.
I love how detailed this resource is. It tells you exactly why each strategy will work and what to consider. It is all based in research and what is best for students. I am excited to use the student interview questions with my class at the begining of the year to create community agreements and figure out routines and procedures that will work for our unique class community.
There is so much information and links to even more information and a lot of actionable strategies.
I also love the implementation reflection questions so that you can be very intentional about how you use the toolkits to ensure you are doing right by all of your students!
I don't know if any better resources to invest in.
I am so thankful I purchased this toolkit. I am a first-year teacher and I just finished my masters degree in teaching, so I have all the theory in my head but am working to build as many resources as I can before I get my own classroom next year. It really feels like a lot and buying this has helped me feel more prepared to implement CLT and RtI best practices into my teaching practice. It's honestly priced at a GREAT value.
I appreciate how Brittany pulls information out of research and resources, then references her sources, and includes all the resources at the end for further reading. I am excited to read through the resources this summer and grateful for the opportunity to read her guide and workshop ahead of time. I look forward to trying these lessons with my future 3rd graders next year.
Truly, thank you so much!
The ADHD Toolkit is a beacon of hope for educators, delivering a bunch of strategies tailored to any classroom environment! I teach an elective and though I am technically not a special ed teacher I run an inclusive classroom. I wish I had this resource and so many of the other resources here as part of my teacher training. This has leveled up my instruction and provided me with more context and understanding as I approach neurodivergent learners. WORTH IT!
I am a clinical child and developmental psychologist. I specialize in evaluating children and adults so that they are able to receive the services they need. This toolkit is so helpful in my line of work because I can provide real practical resources for teachers to include in an IEP or a 504plan. Likewise these are adaptable things we can all do as humans interacting with other humans. It’s beautiful and inspiring. You won’t regret it. It has a little bit of psychology, practicality and a lot of love!!
