David’s first impression of his teacher was that she is mean and very sarcastic with her responses. At that point he knew he was in trouble. So, he figured he should come up with an answer very quickly, or he would be embarrassed from his teacher response. Now, it was David’s turn to speak. He did the best that he could with the limited vocabulary that he had previously learned before now. There were a few words mispronounced and he assigned the wrong gender to the floor and typewriter. The teacher over exaggerated reaction made him feel like it was the end of the world. David took a lot of verbal abuse from his teacher. His teacher continued to belittle everyone in the class, which made them all feel worthless. David said his teacher once called him out as a “lazy kfditinvfm.” David became very sensitive after the harsh comment his teacher made about him. David decided that he wanted to prove to her that he was more than just a loser. He spent a few hours every night doing his homework, giving more time and effort to his assignments. David was adamant about giving himself a name and, more of a positive demeanor. However, at times he would feel a bit nervous and afraid whenever she’s near.
Re-directing negative behavior is of most importance. As a provider, it is our most ardent task to help children deal with feelings of anger, anxiety, frustration, even violence. Constant counseling and re-direction is given to the children at every step. Reward and consequence is instilled in each direction of counseling. Self-regulation, control, and guidance will constantly be encouraged in my setting.
Verbal prompts, redirection to remain focused on a given task, minimize outdoor play, reduced iPad games and parent meeting. The results of interventions are diverse. Adriel would respond to previous intervention such as less outdoor play and parent meeting by behaving in class and follow directions for outdoor play for the first two days of the week and then the behavior occurs again. Verbal prompting often works for the first 2 minutes and then the behavior occurs again. The support and one-to-one attention given from the staff during transitions decreased the incidents of noncompliance, pushing and yelling. The staff will model, role play, practice and discuss all these intervention strategies to support Adriel. He will be given attention when he shows replacement behaviors.
Remias, his mother Charmeen and Audrey Leonard the REACH Child Coordinator met at the Woodman Office for the DD Waiver Intake. We were joined by Tanya Lewis the DD Support Coordinator. She introduced herself to everyone.
In the afterschool program, there would be recurring instances of disruptive behaviors and we would observe that the behavior had a direct connect to the trauma the child had gone through. A violent child witnesses violence as a norm and may use that to communicate anger or frustration where on the other hand, a child that has not undergone trauma expresses those same feelings in a positive and more productive way. Understanding experiences that the child has, and how this in turn impacts how they responds to different situations creates an awareness of how to best support

This article offers strategies for teachers to use to help their most challenging students with behavioral issues. One of the authors is a child psychiatrist who works with at-risk children and the other is a behavior analyst and special educator. Their approach is based on the premise that educators can only control certain elements in the classroom and their own behavior when it comes to students with challenging behavior. The created the acronym FAIR:”F is for understanding the function of the behavior, A is for accommodations, I is for interaction strategies, and R is for responses” (2). The function of behavior can include escaping from something, obtaining a tangible thing, engaging in sensory activities, and getting attention. These functions are the benefits the student gets from the behavior. The escape motivated behavior happens when a student tries to avoid a “task, demand, situation, or person” (3). The tangible behavior occurs when the student wants to get objects like money or feed or something else they want. Sensory behavior happens when a student tries to get the attention of an adult or classmate. This can occur when the student is “bellergent, screaming, or continually interrupting the teacher” (3). Negative attention can reinforce attention-seeking behavior because it is better than nothing and the student may prefer it because it is more predictable than positive attention. Taking ABC

Analyzing the data collected using a functional behavior analysis will help to determine operant reinforcers apparent in the undesired behavior. The behavior observed during this process is tantrums; however, in order to correctly address this issue, the behavior must be operationally defined. Defining tantrums objectively with clarity and completeness ensures that the behavior will be noticeable to others. In this scenario tantrums are defined as disruptive behaviors such as: kicking, throwing objects, crying, falling to the ground, (not to be confused with slipping) knocking over or pushing supplies, stomping on the ground and physical violence towards others. This is now a complete, clear, objective definition of the problematic
