The Newton Parent Advisory Council for Special Education presents the presentation, “Effective Strategies To Reduce Anxiety In Children,” with Jessica Minahan of Newton Public Schools.
Wednesday, February 13
7:30 to 9:00 PM
100 Walnut Street (Room 210), Newtonville
This workshop will teach participants about classroom and home interventions for children (in preschool through Grade 8) with anxiety and related behaviors. Rather than respond with punishment- and reward-based consequences, it is important for adults to understand children’s challenges and teach them how to cope. This will allow children to improve their behavior by acquiring the necessary skills to make progress.
