Building on the Pyramid Model framework, educators will learn the fundamentals of play coaching in order to adopt the strategies in-classroom and to teach parents for in-home use.  Essential skills learned from play coaching include the ability to: 

·      express, identify, reflect on and regulate emotional states 

·      build healthy social and behavioral skills

·      make smart choices

This workshop will demonstrate how to adapt play coaching to all students, including children with adequate or delayed social, emotional, behavioral or executive functioning skills, and students from diverse social, ethnic and economic backgrounds.
