Dealing
with Disruptive Behavior The effectiveness of
instructional programs is measured by student academic achievement.
The factor “Learning” is not constant because of its
dependence on student engagement. When
students are focused and interested on a subject they learn and
master the skills offered by teachers.
But when students display disruptive behaviors they interfere
with instruction and the learning process.
Disruptive students limit themselves and others to the full
advantage of academic instruction.
Workshops
The workshops promote school and parent involvement in a team effort to deal with many of the destructive behaviors found in many of our children labeled as being “At Risk”. The emphasis is to change adults from controlling to influential role models. Without a proper family and school influential structure, many adolescents struggle to acquire effective social and academic skills. The workshops are designed to assist parents and
teachers to form a coalition and develop structures to change negative
behaviors. They
are emotional lectures that helps adults analyze themselves as being part of
the problem and the solutions to destructive behaviors such as: apathy
for school, drugs, gangs and teen pregnancy.
It contains a variety of interactive activities for participants
to review effective strategies such as: Establishing positive relationships Understanding dynamics of behavior Dealing with destructive behavior Developing a nurturing academic environment.

The most important task of a human being, raising our children, and yet we do not prepare ourselves for it. We get degrees as lawyers, doctors, accountants, managers but rarely to become parents.
