2. would cost 10 stars, being able to watch TV over the time allowed would also cost 10 stars, being allowed to stay up late took 5 stars, and so on. It is key to understand each child, so that the list would reflect their interests. They should be allowed to add their interests to the list also. Immediate gratification is the key and reinforces his positive behavior, yet never bribe a child offering something for good behavior. They should be rewarded after and never before a positive behavior. 3. Often children have a difficult time with certain behavior expectations and may need time to learn and adjust. Pick three behaviors that you wish them to work on and write them down. Every time they behave that way, put an x net to it and explain to the child that you will allow 3 is taking before you remove the star. Every time you add an x, take the opportunity to explain why and what is expect of them. Try this for a week and the second week a star will be removed for each misbehavior. Once the child master all three skills, add three additional skills that you think they could improve on and so on. Dealing with Anger Children 's feelings of anger and jealousy need to be acknowledged and parents should have a dialogue with them to understand why they feel that way. I remember my son would get angry if I called his attention when he acted in a certain way that I did not approve. When I called his attention for anything at all, his facial expression and behavior would
Children have a lot to say and parents have to remember to stop and listen to their child and then maybe offer suggestions and ideals. Recognize how the child feels and acknowledge the flaws the child has. Nobody is perfect. Realizing the imperfections of the child helps a parent better understand the type of encouragement and guidance the child might need to become a more productive adolescent.
Parents come home from a long day at work tired and agitated. When agitation gets the best of them, anything a child may do could possibly send them over the edge. A child may be loquacious and that makes their parent/guardian upset. Instead of being pragmatic towards the child, the parent takes all of the stress from work out on the child. Even though the parent may not mean anything of the words being said, they still affect the child. After the parent is able to calm down and realize yelling isn’t the answer, they talk to their child. Parents apologize for what they did and say they overreacted. Sometimes a parent feels compunction for yelling at their child and will bribe them with a toy or food to make them feel better. To conclude, each and every parent is able to relate to yelling at their children when they don’t deserve
Children need to be taught from a young age that it is a normal part of growing up to have occasional arguments and disagreements, to fall-out with friends, from time to time, and not always to get on with other people.
This is not to say that the parents are bad parents or stupid, they just do not realize that children can pick up on things at a young age as they watch them. As parents they should monitor what they do around their children, so that the child does not have to learn bad habits. If the children does happen to do something bad they should take the necessary course of action to make sure that the child knows that the act is bad and should tell them the right course of action. Showing your children the way of life and how it should be lived could positively affect their growth as they mature into teenagers and eventually adults. Now I know everyone is not perfect and we may fail to be a perfect role model, but at least try to keep the negativity to a bare minimum around the child. Parental guidance is always necessary in life. As parents you have experienced the things that the child may be going through and can relate to them on matters because you have been there. I believe if more parents were to talk to their children and try to blend it into being their child’s best friend the problem with aggression can seize itself because every learned action can be unlearned.
The feeling of aggression and rage is natural. We try our best to ignore it because we’ve been forced to think it’s inhumane. Children can’t be shielded from something that’s been implemented from birth. Jones a thriving comic book writer states “Children will feel rage. Even the sweetest and most civilized of them” (3). Rage comes from everyone; we are naturally given this emotion. I’ve seen this in my own life. My three younger cousins have what some might consider overly protective parents. Both the TV’s, and computers have child restriction programs. They aren’t allowed to play any violent video games, yet they constantly beat on each other for the most foolish reasons. Consequently, they’re
This encourages the child to continue the positive behaviour and they will be rewarded with positive attention and something for example as a toy or treat.
D1- Using the naughty chair and reward sanction works is because you’re taking them out of the situation they were in and letting them reflect on their actions. When the child is put on the chair the adult should be persistent, the longer the child plays up and the amount of time is restarted the child will eventually give up, say sorry and then get the reward for doing ‘time’. Over time the child will get so bored of being on the chair therefore meaning the amount of time will be decreased, and if persistent in time the child won’t play up as much as they did at the beginning.
I have worked with the child on a one to one basis several times and the child reacts well to positive praise and receives stickers on a chart for good work. The child has an ‘in’ and ‘out’ tray for work to give them a sense of accomplishment when they have completed something. The child does not appear to have friendship issues and the other children in the class accept the child for who they are. The child has a playground buddy from the upper school that helps them during the playtimes when problems are more likely to occur. It is hoped that the plan the Behaviour Support Unit provides will give those who work with the child a clear framework to work in to provide the constancy that is needed to help alleviate the child’s behaviour.

Find what the child loves and help him learn to focus on it and excel.
The School-Wide Positive Behavior Support or SW-PBIS program is designed to teach behavior expectations in the same manner as any core curriculum subject. The main idea for the SW-PBIS program is for the school to focus on three to five positive behavior expectations rather than telling the students what not to do in the school atmosphere. The expectations and routines are enforced school-wide in each classroom and in non-classroom areas with the matrices posted throughout the school. These expectations and routines are taught through lesson plans at the beginning of the year in setting specific locations, such as lining up properly in the hallway using a hula hoop to demonstrate proper body space distance. The program also emphasizes positive behaviors through a recognition system of praise. Instead of always concentrating on misbehavior staff rewards appropriate behaviors with some kind of incentive. The Carl Junction School district uses this program by implementing the bark bonus program when staff notices appropriate behaviors at specials, in hallways, in the lunchroom, etc. A staff member gives a student or the whole a class bark bonus, eventually when each class receives a specified amount that classroom is rewarded. As a whole, the classroom votes on which reward they want, such as a movie, bring stuffed animal/blanket, wear pajamas, or play electronics during class.
Now that the child is school age, it has many different learned experiences with facial expressions from parents, siblings, friends, and teachers. A child will be reprimanded for doing something against the parents’ wishes and will be told to stop. Children will often test the parents’ limits and continue with the action and when the parent combines the verbal action along with the stern facial expression, the child understand it has reached the parent’s limit. Verbal communication combined with facial expressions provides more meaning to the conversation than just words alone.
Do you enjoy spending your nights off work laying on the couch binge-watching your favorite show on Netflix? I know I do. Things such as “binge-watching” and “marathoning” TV series is becoming more and more socially acceptable in our day and age but there are still many people who hold the beliefs that watching TV makes you dumb, and who say things like “you should find something useful to do with your time.” Because to them, watching TV has no benefits to it at all. But what if there were actually ways to prove to those people that our binge-watching habits can actually make us smarter?
Every time we watch television we always see something advertised that promises to give you a perfect pedicure, remove any kind of stain you throw at it, give you muscle strength and tone muscles so you look like the Incredible Hulk, or put anything together that comes apart or breaks. But do they really work. Our local Channel 6 News (www.wate.com) put some of these "As Seen On T.V." items to the test and here is what they found out. One thing they tested was the Ped Egg. This is a small egg shaped gadget that is supposed to smooth and remove calluses from feet. Well Channel 6 News tested it with a professional in the Knoxville area. Kate used the Ped Egg on one of her regular customers, Gina, and found that it is not what it says. The first thing they found was that it is no where near as gentle as advertised. It actually left "dips" in the bottom of Gina 's feet. Kate actually compared the Ped Egg to a "razor" and stated that "I think it is not safe to use at home." I have to agree. After trying it myself, I really do not like it at all. It felt like I was scraping my foot with a knife. Channel 6 News also tested out the Aqua Globes which are glass that is hand blown and stained and supposed to keep plants watered for up to two weeks. 6 News took the Aqua Globes to a University of Tennessee associate professor in Biosystems Engineering and Soil Science Department. The professor put them to the test and after two weeks found out that they delivered on their promises.
