What if the key to managing challenging student behavior isn’t about "fixing" the kids—but about regulating yourself? In this episode, we explore a sustainable approach to classroom management that shifts the focus to what you can control. Join me and my guest, Claire, as we discuss how self-regulation empowers teachers to create calmer, more effective learning environments while building trust and healthier responses in students. Here’s what we cover in this episode: - Why traditional behavior management strategies often fall short.
- How self-regulation in teachers sets the tone for the entire classroom.
- The role of neuroscience in understanding student behavior and stress responses.
- Practical strategies for co-regulation and creating micro-moments of connection.
- Why “fixing” student behavior isn’t your job—and what you can do instead.
- How to craft an “island of safety” in your classroom, even without strong school-wide support.
- Tools and systems to help students develop self-regulation skills.
- Tips for avoiding burnout and emotional exhaustion when working with extreme behaviors.
Discover how small, intentional shifts in your mindset and practice can make a big impact. Whether you’re a new teacher feeling overwhelmed or a seasoned educator looking for fresh ideas, this episode is full of practical insights to help you guide behavior sustainably—without carrying the weight of fixing everything.
