The Weight of Words and Reframing Behavior

THE WEIGHT OF WORDS:

Psychology, philosophy, and language use

come together to explore mindset within our

early years practice. Participants learn the

measurable impact their daily engagement has

on children, while examining medical/social

models of disability and current practice

language use.

RE-FRAMING BEHAVIOUR:

Rooted in a brain-based understanding,

participants gain valuable insight to “why

does he do that?” with exploration of co-

regulation throughout the early years. We

re-frame our understanding of behaviours,

deeply connect with the model of ‘upstairs

brain/downstairs brain’ with strategic, on-

the-floor, actionable responses for educators.
