Hello friends!
Welcome to the Smarter Parenting class.
This class will teach you behavior intervention skills that will: build your relationship, help you know what to teach, how to teach them effectively, when the best time to teach and actually implementing it all together.
These are the 5 elements that make the Teaching-Family Model so effective.
In each lesson, we will highlight the 5 elements of the Teaching-Family Model. All are important in helping you find success with the behavior skills.
The skills we teach are relationship focused. Using skills will improve and strengthen bonds as your child comes to understand that you have their best interest at heart.
How much time will it take you to teach a skill to your child as it’s important to have realistic expectations.
Knowing what skills to use with different behavior is empowering.
The steps of skills give you a framework for how to respond in a healthy way.
Lasting change requires time–lots of it. It’s in the practicing-aka doing-where you will see the biggest impact.
This Smarter Parenting class has eleven lessons. Ten of the lessons teach behavior skills and the final lesson puts everything together. During each lesson, you will watch a skills video, complete assignments, and take a quiz before you move on.
