Turn 5 of 6 · Behavior GPS Sequence

🤝 Practice Together

I Do, We Do, You Do — with your child.

This classroom is the practice. You learn the move and try it at home. The Behavior Struggle Map is the separate paperwork — the filled-in logs, letters, and plan for the school. We do not repeat it here.

Your child learns the new rhythm when nobody is upset.

What you walk away with

A 3-night practice plan your child actually joins.

Lesson 1 · 6 min

Practice when nobody is mad

FREE

Skills learned during a meltdown do not stick. Skills learned at snack time do.

Step 1: Pick a calm 5 minutes — after snack works best.
Step 2: Say "Let's practice the hard-moment plan."
Step 3: You go first (I Do). Show the breath and the words.
Step 4: Do it together (We Do). Silly is fine.
Step 5: Let them try alone (You Do). Clap for the try, not the perfect.

I Do

I demo the practice round with a 6-year-old.

We Do

We plan your three nights together.

You Do

You run night one and post how it went.

This week: Run one 5-minute practice this week.

Lesson 2 · 8 min

The 3-night practice plan

Members

Three short nights beat one long talk.

Step 1: Night 1 — practice the breath only.
Step 2: Night 2 — practice the breath plus the words.
Step 3: Night 3 — pretend a small hard moment and run the whole thing.
Step 4: Name the win out loud each night.

I Do

I give you the printable 3-night card.

We Do

We troubleshoot the night your child refuses.

You Do

You finish all three nights and post the badge.

This week: Print the 3-night card. Check off each night.
