Get ready to laugh and learn as Jim brings some of the most important developmental principles
alive with his down to earth presentation style. Jim will focus on some of the most common
misconceptions people have about children and talk about how they affect our ability to
intervene effectively. He will pay specific attention to the core developmental needs of children
and how they relate to challenging behavior. Jim will also explore how to strategically
approach challenging behavior with children from an instructional perspective.
