"The change in language and use of 'helpful' and 'unhelpful' has been a game changer with our students. When I was having difficulty getting a student to comply with heading back to her room, I thought, what would Linda say? I explained to the student that it would be helpful if she could return to her room. I witnessed the student physically relax and head to her room. so I was easier for me to support the other students to also follow the instruction."
