Positive Relationships for Learning Series Both of these GPS classes are designed to help participants teach all students effectively. Learn about how behavior and communication skills are interconnected, how trauma and poverty affect student behavior and how to teach students to capture the learning opportunities inherent in everyday mistakes.
