How can I increase the likelihood that my students will meet behavioral expectations each day?

This video explores effective, neuroinformed strategies for educators to help students meet behavioral expectations through positive reinforcement and predictable routines.Summary for TeachersThe Power of Pre-correction: Rather than reacting to misbehavior, pre-correction involves setting students up for success by clearly stating expectations, modeling the desired behavior, and allowing students to practice before a transition or activity.1Neuroinformed Brain Science: Predictable routines and patterned, repetitive activities calm the nervous system and regulate the brain, making students more capable of following directions.2The STEADY Strategy: This structured approach helps maintain classroom order:S: Stop and focus to ensure you have students' attention.3T: Think and provide clear expectations or directions.4E: Engage and move around the room, as teacher presence improves behavior.5A: Act with positive non-verbals and encouragement.6D: Determine the timing (e.g., "we start in 30 seconds").7Y: "Yes!"—Notice and praise students the moment they meet expectations.8Positive Noticing: Educators are encouraged to "notice the heck out of" students when they do something right, even in small increments. This builds skills, strengthens connections, and releases dopamine, which keeps the student's brain in a state ready for learning.--Get your copy here: https://essdk.me/STEADY
