Introduction of coach

Hi! My name is Shannon Berghoff. I have been teaching in Missouri for 13 years and 16 years in total. The majority of my experience has been with students K-6.

I have been a behavior interventionist for 3 years now. I have created/implemented many interventions and can't wait to help you in your pursuit of a calm classroom with students ready to learn!

What to expect

Virtual coaching sessions will be 1.5 hours long and will be held via Zoom. You can find the Zoom link by clicking Complete and Continue below.

In the session, I will frequently stop and check the chat to answer questions and provide clarity.

Please ask questions!!! By you asking, you help others who may be too shy to speak up. Your concerns are important.

To ask questions, there are several options:

•  Verbally ask questions - unmute and speak up!
• Ask the question to whole group in the chat
• Remain anonymous to the group and ask the question in the chat directly to the presenter -me!

Lesson Summary

As we head into the second quarter, the “honeymoon” period of the school year is officially over. That initial excitement has worn off, routines are in place, and some new behaviors might be popping up. This is completely normal—it’s just part of the natural flow of the year—and it’s a good time to step back, reflect, and try a few fresh approaches. Every student is different, and when we take the time to understand what each one needs, we can create classrooms that feel supportive and set everyone up for success.

In our upcoming Zoom session, we’ll have a real, down-to-earth conversation about what’s been happening now that the honeymoon is over. We’ll share stories, swap ideas, and talk about ways to respond to behaviors with empathy and understanding. Together, we’ll gather practical tools, fresh perspectives, and a sense of community—so our students feel seen and encouraged, and we feel supported as we guide them through the rest of the year.
