About this listen
In this episode of Conversations with the Co-op, host Jeffrey Lee is joined by Jim Kath, Emotional and Behavioral Disorders Coordinator at PBEC, for a powerful conversation about how student behavior communicates unmet needs. Rather than viewing behavior through a lens of compliance or disruption, Jim and Jeffrey explore how educators can shift toward curiosity, empathy, and proactive support.
Whether you're a case manager, classroom teacher, or administrator, this episode will help you:
Understand behavior as a form of communication
Recognize how unmet needs show up through actions
Consider strategies for supporting students more effectively
Tune in to reflect on how listening to behavior, not just managing it, can strengthen student and team outcomes.
