PROACTIVE APPROACH
I use Positive Contacts, Proximity and Active Supervision to connect with students.
INSTRUCTIVE APPROACH
I use behaviorally specific Acknowledgements to encourage skill development (4+ to 1-).
RESTORATIVE APPROACH
I use Affective Statements to encourage skill development (4+ to 1-).
