Behavior Principles
A fast-paced and fun look at WHY children (and adults) behave the way they do - spoiler alert - you can influence their behavior 😊.
Learn the science behind all human behavior and the principals that positive behavior support and PBIS is based upon. Behavior Principles, like gravity and the laws of physics, apply across cultures and countries - these principles act on us whether we are aware of it or not.

“[Behavior Principles] is a perfect resource for our teachers, teaching assistants, school volunteers, related service personnel, school bus drivers, and even parents and grandparents - now behavior makes sense! ”
