This session will include tangible resources for special and general education teachers that are desiring to reach our disengaged special needs students. The session will have three main components to help overcome the barriers that are overwhelming our “at-risk” kids. The first component is the environment: we will explore things that educators can do to foster an atmosphere of safety and security that will help kids to feel free and able to thrive in an educational setting. The second area is engagement: teachers will learn how to connect with students in a way that sets a foundation for solid communication throughout the year. The third area is conflict resolution: teachers will learn strategies that will help our kids overcome stressful situations. This session will help educators feel empowered and hopeful when encountering our most resistant learners.
