The PAWS Parent Academy is a bridge from home to school over the river of positive behavioral interventions and supports. This self-guided forum allows families to access resources, post questions and answers and to better understand how to increase their child’s social and emotional skills.
Each module is designed to address specific
topics of interest such as, calming and coping strategies, how to shop without
a melt-down and helping your child to make friends. At the end of each module, a list of ideas,
techniques and resources has been provided for the families to use. There are currently a total of four modules
with an unending opportunity for Q & A.
Additional surveys will be forthcoming to allow for more topics to be
addressed.
The academy has been designed for the following
purposes:
·
Answers
and resources provided based on feedback from the Parent Survey answered in the
Spring of 2012
·
Access
to additional resources for helping children with complex profiles
·
Networking
throughout the community of CSLC and beyond
·
Sharing
opportunities with other parents and professionals genuinely interested in the well-being
and ongoing development of your child
THANKS TO ALL THE STAFF AT SANDBURG FOR SETTING THIS UP. I HOPE PARENTS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT. ITS A GREAT RESOURCE AND HELP WHEN YOU REALLY NEED ADVICE FROM OTHERS THAT ARE GOING THROUGH A BEHAVIOR OR JUST A ROUGH TIME AND TO HEAR FROM SOMEONE WHO HAS ALREADY BEEN THERE, AND CAN GIVE YOU SOME SUGGESTIONS IS A BIG COMFORT.
