These options should only be enforced by a staff member trained in CPI (Crisis Prevention Institute). So, what are your options as a guest teacher or classroom aide in this situation? De-escalate the situation as quickly as possible. There are (3) techniques to verbally de-escalating a situation and it is important that you practice these techniques before they are needed so they become “second nature”: 1.Be in Control of Yourself 2 The Physical Stance 3 The De-Escalation Discussion There is nothing magical about de-escalating a situation.
