Students who want support in self-regulation, that is, in managing their behavior, generally do not have the necessary skills to regulate their behavior and they show this with their actions. They may be impatient and have outbursts of anger for no apparent reason, often unwilling to carry out routines. They may be socially ostracized or ostracized by other children.. The most important thing to understand about students who have difficulties in self-regulation is that they seek support from us.
Here it is necessary to clearly understand the reason for the child's behavior and learn strategies to prevent the behavior.
Understanding the following critical concepts helps adults choose how to better intervene in children's behavior:
If a child is exhibiting compulsive behavior, it is a sign of an underdeveloped skill. If a child could do it, he would have done it already. If the child exhibits maladaptive behavior, it is a sign of an underdeveloped skill. Behaviors that need to be supported are a sign that students are unable to cope with the situation. Some may be hypersensitive to stress, while others may lack social skills such as peer communication. All of these are about self-regulation.
Behavior is communication. While children's behavior may seem strange or destructive, their actions are purposeful and are attempts to solve a problem. It is very important to take a step back and try to figure out what the child is trying to convey and what the function (or purpose) of the behavior is.
Behavior has function. Behavior is never random or purposeless. Children do not repeat a behavior unless they achieve something. Usually, it's a response from others that fuels inappropriate behavior. For example; swearing can work to get the other person's attention. Again, if a child has a tantrum and hurts something or himself, it will repeat often from now on. Parents need to find different ways to react so as not to unintentionally reinforce the behavior and the child� He needs to understand what he's getting from inappropriate behavior.
Behavior occurs in patterns The key to breaking the code of negative behavior is to look for patterns. Capture the child's behavioral routines at the time of the day. For example; Observe her behavior while eating breakfast each morning. He may want to go to the bathroom every time you go to him to give a speech. Once the patterns specific to the child are discovered, the function or purpose of the behavior will usually reveal itself. Every behavior also had a bookmarkr. Families need to be aware of these bookmarks when trying to understand behavior. It is these that nurture the behavior and allow it to continue.
Behavior can be changed While there is one way to improve the behavior of children with behaviors that need to be supported Well, igood behavior plans are truly a guide to helping parents develop new behaviors so they can interact with children in a preventative way. For some children, when interventions are appropriate in understanding the function of the student's behavior and teaching underdeveloped skills, the child can change quickly. If the child has been exhibiting inappropriate behavior for years and lacks the necessary skills, change it may take longer. The more intensively a child is taught underdeveloped skills and the more the environment is changed to encourage appropriate behavior, the faster the behavior is likely to change.
Reinforce the desired behavior.If a child does not respond to academic and social instructions, the family can reinforce and reward student behavior in developing tolerance and using self-regulation skills by asking him to do only 10 minutes of work.
Teach a substitution behavior. A substitution behavior—same as inappropriate behavior—to use when developing the child the skills needed to behave appropriately function appropriate behavior should be taught. For example, instead of banging her fists on the table when she finds reading annoying, she politely asks, "Can I take a break, please?"
Respond to a child's inappropriate behavior in a way that deters them. When a negative situation occurs, the parent's reaction should be to reinforce the child's desired behavior. It is important to persuade the child by highlighting the positive behavior rather than focusing on the inappropriate behavior.
