Supporting Calm Classrooms - Practical Tips for Teaching Assistants

Focus Area 4.3 Encourage and support positive student behaviour.
Focus Area 2.2 Demonstrate knowledge of evidence-based strategies to support learning and teaching.

Nellie Wilmot, a Coach and Trainer from Classroom Mastery, joins us as guest presenter to explore practical strategies teaching assistants can use to support calm, predictable classrooms and reduce cognitive load so students can focus and learn. During this webinar, Nellie will share how teaching assistants can -

• help uphold school behaviour policy and curriculum expectations, reinforce established routines, and provide timely prompts that help students stay on task
• support regulation, model consistent language and expectations, and intervene early before behaviour escalates
• reinforce the conditions that allow students to listen, think and respond.

This session is designed to be practical, immediately usable and applicable in both primary and secondary settings. It will suit teaching assistants who want to strengthen their behaviour-support skillset and increase their impact on classroom climate.

This webinar will be presented at 3:30 pm AEST. Check the start time for your location, to avoid disappointment.
