Ep. 66: Behavior Management for Early Learners - 5 Preschool Classroom Strategies
Manage episode 509422866 series 3550759
Teaching little ones with big feelings can be equal parts joyful and challenging. In this episode, we share five simple, effective strategies for supporting early learners in preschool and special education settings. From using visuals to keeping it playful, you’ll walk away with practical tools you can try tomorrow.
🔑 Key Takeaways
• Keep it visual: Use simple schedules, choice boards, and social stories to support communication and independence.
• Narrate everything: Model positive language with calm, playful tones (think Mr. Rogers or Miss Rachel style).
• Prevention matters: Catch behaviors early with pre-corrections, sensory breaks, and proactive supports.
• Repetition is key: Expect to teach skills 50+ times—consistency builds mastery.
• Play is better than lecture: Embed learning into games, role play, and parallel play for lasting impact.
