The Power of Predictable Routines: Proactive Strategies for Large Group Times

Saturday June 27, 2026 1:15pm - 2:15pm CDT

Medina

In a preschool setting, predictability is the best behavior management tool. This session focuses on creating "invisible structures" that guide children through large group times. We will discuss how to build a rock-solid routine using visual supports, "defined-space" seating, and consistent transition cues. When the group follows a familiar rhythm, you can smooth out those tricky transitions and stop off-task behavior before it even starts, and increase overall engagement.
