Tom’s behavior often disrupts class. Yesterday he threw a dictionary across the room, knocked over his desk, kicked it, and began yelling obscenities at the teacher and the other students in the class (LD resource room). The teacher had to call for help from his ED resource room teacher to calm him down and safely remove him from the classroom.…
Displaying a disruptive and disturbing nature - For some children, behaviour problems may frustrate access to the curriculum, for example if aggressive behaviour leads to exclusion from some activities or from the school. For others, a learning difficulty may lead to or worsen behavioural and emotional difficulties, for example, a child who has difficulty in grasping the basics of literacy or numeracy may withdraw from lessons or try to divert attention away from the learning difficulty by disruptive behaviour.…
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.…
Let’s assume that we have a child named Charlie who presents three challenging behaviors, speaking out of turn or rude comments during class, refuses to follow direction, and physical violence towards others in class. As a teacher we need to first find the triggers and the functions these…

School institutions simply cannot tolerate misbehavior by students. It is the school’s responsibility to maintain a safe, and controlled learning environment for everyone within the school institutions. Students truly cannot learn and teachers cannot teach amongst disruption and chaos. This is no controversy. So, to try and achieve this goal, schools have adapted and fiercely implemented the zero tolerance policies. Schools feel these policies have made them more effective in handing disciplinary issues. It mandates a consistency of discipline for certain offenses. Parents feel the zero tolerance policies ensures the safety of their children while at school. Others feel removing the disruptive students altogether, creates a better learning environment for behaved students. But it is important to remember the zero tolerance polices do not distinguish between major and minor offenses. While school systems feel, this sends clarifying message to students, it could be sending the wrong message, ultimately forcing children into the prison…

"Rights talk seeps into spheres of American society where a sense of personal responsibility and of civic obligation traditionally have been nourished. An intemperate rhetoric of personal liberty in this way corrodes the social foundations on which individual freedom and security ultimately rest." Because I agree with this quote, I firmly resolve the resolution that establishing a safe educational environment for grades K-12 justifies the infringement of civil liberties.…
conducted an investigation into parents of children with ASDs perceptions, and satisfaction, with the education their children were receiving. Participants were 144 parents of children who had a diagnosis of an ASD, and were currently enrolled in a mainstream school. Mothers, as opposed to fathers or both parents, completed 89.9% of the surveys. It was fount that 15.4% of children had been suspended, and all parents believed the reasoning behind it was the school staff’s inability to deal with the child’s behaviour. Furthermore, aggression committed by the child was a common reasoning for suspension. However, parents generally felt that the suspension occurred unnecessarily as the child’s behaviour was not dealt with adequately (p.210). This could suggest that children with ASDs should be educated in special schools, as the staff may be more understanding and better prepared for helping the child with any aggressive outbursts they may have. Moreover, it could be argued that special schools are more appropriate for children with ASDs as they will be with staff, and in an environment, that is better suited to their overall needs. Consequently, this could decrease the amount of exclusions, which will benefit the child, as they are detrimental to their education. However, this means that parents may feel forced to send their child to a special school, even if they don’t want to, due to the fear of their child not being fully supported in a mainstream…
a) It’s much easier to deal with a child when they are only showing simple signs of agitation that it is to manage a child who’s already acting out. This also allows the teacher to intervene much earlier, when it’s easier to get behavior back on track.…
