Adult Skills
The Let Your Wings Out modules explores life skills using Words to Live By as the foundation. This series offers insights on improving your own skills and, in turn, demonstrating them effectively to children.
Each course, lasting 10-20 minutes, focuses on a particular skill, providing numerous examples and interactive activities to facilitate learning and practical application.
Fundamentals
Fundamentals is a series of four 15-minute modules on the basics of the Wings for Kids approach. You’ll learn:
- How to establish a common language and why it helps create an environment where kids can thrive.
- How to create a supportive environment that fosters social connections and provides engaging opportunities to learn and play.
- What it takes to build character skills in children – what we call focused skill building.
- Three important teaching practices that include modeling, teachable moments, and behavior management.
Behavior Management
This catalog of modules includes positive, proactive strategies to minimize the potential for behavioral issues and explores corrective techniques that help you modify student behavior when proactive techniques are not enough.
Using these positive behavior management techniques - and the corrective techniques as needed - will help you build a supportive, empowering, and respectful environment AND help your students build life skills at the same time.
