The Three-Second Rule for Educators

In this episode of the Early Education Teachers Lounge, Noelle discusses effective strategies for managing challenging behaviors in the classroom without escalating situations. She introduces the three-second rule, emphasizing the importance of pausing and breathing before responding to a child’s behavior. The episode outlines three steps: pausing and taking a breath, responding in a calm and slow manner, and redirecting the child's behavior or offering simple choices. Noelle provides practical tips for practicing this technique, such as using silent cues and mental mantras, and highlights the benefits of maintaining a calm classroom environment. These methods help teachers create a productive and supportive atmosphere for early learners.
