When one or more children begin to persistently exhibit aggressive behaviours inside and outside of the classroom, the environment can change dramatically. A considerable amount of time and energy can be spent on the children showing aggressive behaviours, taking valuable teaching time away from not only the children exhibiting these behaviours, but the rest of their class as well. This can become a principal source of frustration and stress for teachers and caregivers. Does this sound familiar?
Positive Behaviour Support Strategies for Students with Aggressive Behaviours: A Step-by-Step Guide to Assessing, Managing, and Preventing Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties is a highly practical book that can be used by educators in childcare, preschool, schools, and community services to learn the evidence-based approach of Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) to assess, manage, and prevent challenging behaviours in children of all ages with aggressive behaviours. Learn how to complete a functional behaviour analysis to document behaviour incidents, identify triggers, and determine the reasons for specific challenging behaviours. Consult the bank of proactive strategies that can be tailored to an individual child's environment to prevent triggers and promote positive ways of communicating, behaving, and managing emotions. Develop an escalation profile to describe the different verbal and non-verbal signals the child exhibits as their levels of stress, anger, and/or frustration increase, and determine strategies for responding to each escalation stage. This book provides templates, banks of practical strategies, and a framework for developing a behaviour management plan so that all staff supporting a child can respond to challenging behaviours effectively and efficiently in a planned, safe, and least disruptive manner. This book will educate, empower, and enable you to help your child learn positive ways of behaving and managing their emotions. They can spend more time learning and developing, and you can spend more time doing what you do best: teaching. This invaluable resource is useful for parents, caregivers, childcare educators, primary and secondary educators, supervisory, allied health professionals, and mental health professionals.
