Every behavior has a purpose, especially in children. Our first Reactive training module unpacks this crucial concept.

Making the Most of CLASSroom Interactions
Join us for professional development organized around the Know, See, Do model of professional development for teachers. These trainings encourage and support teachers’ use of CLASS to explain the impact of specific teacher-child interactions on children’s learning, identify effective teacher-child interactions in videos and in their classrooms, and strengthen their teaching practices by integrating more intentional teacher-child interactions.
This program will support teachers’ growth no matter their experience level with CLASS.
