Conversations with a Conscious Discipline Skeptic Part 3: Transformation

This is Part 3 of a three-part series.

Conscious Discipline takes an innovative approach to social-emotional learning. It asks adults to make a mindset shift and skill set upgrade before teaching children to do the same. By first guiding adults to become conscious, present, attuned and responsive to their needs and the needs of children, Conscious Discipline creates sustainable transformation. Of course, transformational change can be overwhelming, difficult, or scary for adults.

This three-part video series follows fifth-grade teacher Mrs. Lewis through the process that is natural for many adults when they first encounter Conscious Discipline:

·       Hesitant resistance
·       Building excitement
·       Transformation

By Part 3 of this series, Mrs. Lewis is ready to become a teacher leader, sharing her knowledge of Conscious Discipline and her success stories with others. You’ll see how the transformation within Mrs. Lewis was mirrored by the transformation in her students and her classroom.
