    Randy often engages in a number of behaviors that may be adversely affecting other children in the classroom. At times, Randy is considered to be restless and impulsive, and has difficulty maintaining his self-control.

For example, behavioral modification such as defining clear and consistent rules and creating a positive reinforcement system for Jake could be beneficial. It is important for Jake to be in the least restrictive environment which would be the general education classroom for him.

    While it may seem as if a child’s challenging behavior serves no purpose other than to disrupt the classroom this is not the case. Challenging behavior always serves a purpose and meets a need that the child has. These needs include getting reinforcement (social or tangible) or escaping or avoiding a task or situation (Functional Behavior Assessment, 2001). The need that is being met by the challenging behavior must be identified in order to develop an appropriate, effective behavior support plan to address this challenging behavior and meet this need.…

    Schools are in great need of systems, processes, and personnel who are able to support the needs of students with problem behavior. Research indicates, however, that (while I am a big, fat cheater) information has not been made available to teachers and other professionals in a format that allows these strategies to become common practice. Many teachers choose isolated behavioral strategies that are not applied immediately after the problem behavior has occurred.…

    Over the course of this course I have learned many different things about the human lifespan development. I chose to do my informal interview with a BA (Behavior Analysis) about the challenging behaviors of school aged children. This paper will also go into literature that I read along with the interviewing process that took place to get a better insight on what kind of behaviors maybe seen, causes and effects, along with different options on how to prevent or reduce the undesired behaviors. I will go over the types of questions that were raised in the interview and the synopsis of the entire interview in whole. I never realized until getting more in-depth with human lifespan the varying reasons why some undesired behaviors happen. I have worked in the mental field before and am currently working with adult mentally disabled individuals, but never realized the different reasoning’s and how much prenatal care actually impacts a person. Learning many things along the way have helped me better understand not only behaviors that are seen at my job but I am not a better equip parent following this course. For the most part parents just want to give into children’s behaviors and not really look into how or why the behaviors are occurring. Environments are really never taken into consideration some parents point out other individuals but never look at the whole picture in one. I hope that this could maybe even help others who may read this take a second look or even get another opinion on why undesired behaviors of their own children may occur.…

    Recognize that a child is going into survival mode and respond in a kind compassionate form. When a student is misbehaving, start by asking yourself, “What is happening here?”. If this is a reoccurring event, try to recognize the trigger. Once a trigger has been identified, kindly and compassionately reflect to the child. Offer the child a couple of choices of things that he/she can do, at least one of which should be appealing to him/her. This opportunity will offer the child a chance to gain a sense of control and help him/her feel safe once more. These actions will begin to create a positive relationship between teacher and student.…

    Od Observation

    As a high school guidance counselor, I often intervene with students with oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) when they are disruptive or have inappropriate behavior in schools. One of the first steps I take to help a student with ODD is talking with their parents, teachers, and student to find out what prompts the child's feelings that may lead to defiant behavior. Then, I make observations of the child’s classroom participation and their interactions with others. I attempt to understand as much as possible about the child and determine what triggers the feelings, and what influences their behavior by forming a therapeutic relationship to work together to support the student who struggle with ODD.…
