'Teachers of young children will feel validated by this book that
explains the issues underlying behaviors that challenge us on a
daily basis and shows how to address them effectively' - Xiomara
Sanchez, NBCT, Dual Language Pre-K Teacher, Darwin Elementary
School, Chicago, IL 'Covers the breadth of children's behaviors
that teachers are likely to see, and describes the major motivators
for them very well. The examples and scenarios are highly
interesting, meaningful, and transferable to classroom practice' -
Gail Hardesty, Early Reading First Mentor, Chicago Public Schools,
IL Teachers are experts in balancing the diverse backgrounds,
social-emotional needs, and academic goals of children in their
classroom - that is, if they can only get them to sit still, pay
attention, keep their hands off of each other (or out of the fish
tank), or a host of other effective aggravations! But creating a
classroom of attentive learners takes more than swift discipline -
it involves helping children make good behavioural choices by
developing their self-control rather than controlling them to make
the choices we prefer. Difficult Behavior in Early Childhood offers
insight into understanding why certain children behave in certain
ways, so teachers can react appropriately to individual behaviours
and needs. In an engaging, conversational tone, the book covers: *
Reconciling the different behavioural expectations of families and
schools * Applying timeout effectively * Motivating children
immediately and powerfully * Establishing and following through
with boundaries * Developing behaviour incentive plans that work *
Identifying early signs of depression, anxiety, grief, and special
needs Through informed practice, teachers can bring about positive
behavioural change and healthy, productive development.
