Episode 33- How to De-Escalate: Strategies for Special Educators

If there is one thing within the field of special education that I could pinpoint as the hardest, it would 100% be the behaviors.

And if I was a gambler, I'd put big money that I'm not alone in that opinion.

Today’s show is focused on de-escalation and I’m joined by Kaylan Long from Caffeinated Behavior Change. Kaylan serves her district as the behavior specialist. Throughout the episode you will hear real life examples of how different behaviors were handled as well as background knowledge on what causes behaviors, how we as teachers can begin to identify when a child is escalating and strategies to help de-escalate even the most upset child.

Mentioned within the show is the Intentional IEP Summer PD Series. Click here to get the details.

Upcoming: 2 courses in the works! - SEL small groups for your Special Education Classroom; Co-Regulation & De-Escalation
