With this final paper I will be explaining some behavioral plans for children as well as describing the purpose of behavior management in early childhood education settings. Also I will integrate specific challenging behavior in this paper. When discussing strategies for teachers can use to determine the functions of challenging behaviors and also be designing an individual support plan for each of the challenging behaviors like possible functions of the behavior, specific positive behaviors supports and replacement behaviors. In my conclusion I will discuss in detail and will …show more content…
“The behavior support plan represents the culmination of the assessment process. Typically developed in connection with person-centered planning, the behavior support plan is the team’s action plan outlining the specific steps to be used to promote the child’s success and participation in daily activities and routines. In order to be most effective, behavior support plans should be both carefully developed and clearly written using plain language, incorporate the values of the family and support team, identify any prerequisite resources and training needs for implementation, and include individual components that are both easy to use and easy to remember.” (Anonymous, 2011).
“Classroom management should be designed to reflect behavioral expectations and create an atmosphere in which student self-esteem can flourish (Canter, 1992). Educators have the right to maintain optimal learning in an environment free of disruption. Students also have rights as learners to learn in an appropriate environment free of bias and disruptions. In the past, the term discipline has been used to refer to classroom management, but it implied a negative connotation that is equated with punishment. Instead, it should address their future decisions. According …show more content…
Because these individuals were unable to fully explain why they were displaying certain inappropriate behaviors, methods were developed to determine why they demonstrated such actions. These investigatory procedures, derived primarily from the orientation and methods of applied behavior analysis were known as "functional behavioral analysis". By gathering data and conducting experiments that evaluated the effects of environmental variables on the behavior, concerned staff members could usually decipher the meaning of the behaviors (i.e., what emotion or message was being communicated through the actions), determine why they were occurring, and develop behavior change programs to help the disabled individual display more appropriate behavior in meeting his or her needs.” (McConnell,
