Challenging behavior amongst pupils is as much of a headache for
teaching assistants as it is for teachers. This book, specifically
written with teaching assistants in mind, looks at common behavior
problems in the classroom, explains typical causes of misbehavior
and shows what teaching assistants can do to tackle and tame
disruptive students in their care.
Using a range of case-studies, all of which are based on real-life
situations and discussed exclusively from the perspective of a
teaching assistant, Susan Bentham explores:
- The role of the teaching assistant in relation to School Behavior
Policies
- When and how to reward good behavior
- Why we should understand the reason for bad behavior, in order to
determine the most appropriate way of dealing with it
- How to implement the behavior strategies that really work
Mirroring the course content of most Teaching Assistant GNVQ and
Foundation degree qualifications, the author adoptsa reflective
approach to behavior management. She effectively illustrates how
practitioners can learn from their experiences and develop new
skills and coping strategies, which will enable them to concentrate
on the most important part of their job: supporting learning.
This book is a must buy for any teaching assistant for whom bad
behavior is proving their biggest everyday challenge.
