Trainer directions:

In Zoom's whiteboard create 4-5 different colored squares. Assign each group to one of these topics to generate expectation/routines. Assign each group a colored sticky/group number. Give them time to work on the whiteboard and then share out.

Group 1: Afternoon check-in routine to gauge student moods from their day and/or needs.

Group 2: Clear rules/expectations for transitions between activities.

Group 3: Structured procedures for asking for help.

Group 4: How to work within activity centers.

Group 5: Whole-group activity (Calendar, craft, field trip etc.)

Participant Directions: In your groups, create a set of routines and expectations that can help prevent challenging behaviors and after school programs. Discuss how these routines and expectations can be implemented. Be prepared to share your ideas with the larger group.

Virtual:

Stop showing the powerpoint slide so that everyone is seen in the squares via Zoom. Use the Zoom tools have the

Facilitator Voice:

"Welcome everyone to our restorative circle. Today, we're going to explore the topic of building trust and connection within our group. I'll start by sharing a personal reflection on the topic, and then we'll pass around the talking piece for others to share. Remember, the talking piece symbolizes respect and listening, so please hold it when you're speaking and pass it to the next person when you're done. We will continue this until everyone has had a chance to respond."

Assign each group to one of these topics to generate expectation/routines. Give them time to work on the handout and then allow time for participants to share out.

In-Person Facilitator Notes:

• Introduce the chart during the "Behavior Management Techniques" section of the presentation.

• Explain how participants should think critically about the techniques, referencing their potential use in afterschool programs.

• Options: Option 1: Allow 10 minutes prior to starting the section for participants to complete the chart independently or in small groups (virtual breakout rooms or in-person clusters). Option 2: Pause after each behavior management section and allow 1-2 minutes for participants to fill out the chart.

• Facilitate a brief discussion to share key takeaways and encourage peer learning.

Virtual Facilitator Notes:

• Open the chart in a tab.

• Use the waterfall method in the chat box to have participants respond to each of the sections.

Waterfall method: A facilitator asks everyone to start writing in response to a prompt – but not to hit “enter” until a given signal ("Go", "3,2,1", etc.) whereupon everyone hits return/enter at the same time.
