Managing Challenging Behavior in Your Classroom

3 Semester Units

This course gives teachers a variety of skills in preventing disruptive behavior, and/or difficult student relationships, especially where it is negatively impacting their teaching in the K-12 classroom. “The best time to solve a problem is before it starts!” Each time that an educator has to stop teaching in order to reprimand a student, document the incident, and/or contact parents, valuable instructional time is lost. Children who exhibit disruptive behaviors at home create stress, anxiety, and emotional discord that affect every member of the family. Teachers will be provided a variety of behavior management resources. Behavior Management strategies are designed to foster appropriate behaviors in children. Parents as well as educators can use these strategies successfully to promote enviable behaviors that are socially acceptable and academically beneficial. Teachers need to be proactive in providing a physically and emotionally safe environment for learners.
