Download or read book Understanding Children s Behaviour written by Penny Tassoni and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-09-20 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Early Years settings are taking in children for longer periods and at a younger age. However, their day-to-day practice has not necessarily changed and instead leads to the 'management' of behaviour, rather than investigating why the behaviour is taking place. Through a combination of practice, theory and reflection, leading Early Years education consultant Penny Tassoni explores children's behaviour from a child-centred point of view. In doing so, she shows how, over time, children learn to be with others and the strategies that adults can use to positively support this development. Understanding Children's Behaviour is a practical handbook that is accessible and adaptable for Early Years practitioners looking to support children's behaviour by focusing on their personal and social skills. It includes a useful A-Z problem-solving section about dealing with unwanted behaviours for analysis and to guide practice.

Download or read book Understanding Behaviour and Development in Early Childhood written by Maria Robinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-10-04 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this accessible and thought-provoking text, the author examines the behaviour of babies and young children in a developmental context, and takes into account the shifts and changes over time as young children grow and mature. Understanding Behaviour and Development in Early Childhood reveals, for example, how behaviour perceived as ‘difficult’ in a young child may be the manifestation of a response to emotional, sensory and cognitive experiences. Throughout the book, readers will find a strong emphasis on emotional well-being and the need to place our understanding of behaviour within a developmental time frame. Based on wide ranging professional experience the topics examined and discussed in this insightful book include: what we understand by ‘behaviour’ how the brain and senses work and mature during early childhood behaviour as a reflection of the child’s internal state what emotions are and how we learn what feelings mean to us as individuals how emotions affect our ability to learn how we develop a sense of self. The book provides suggestions for how adults may think about and respond to changes in children’s behaviour, and how we may support children in learning how to manage their own behaviour as they grow older and encounter wider and more complex situations. Understanding the meaning of behaviour is a constant challenge for anyone working with children. This developmental approach promotes a helpful reflective stance for practitioners and students working in early childhood education and care.

Download or read book Behaviour and discipline in schools written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Education Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-02-03 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poor and disruptive behaviour in the classroom reduces children's ability to concentrate and absorb information; and it unsettles children and causes immense stress for teachers. Persistent poor behaviour in schools can have far-reaching and damaging consequences for children and can limit their horizons: this is not a problem to be ignored. The Department for Education should collect sample data on all serious incidents in schools, complemented with survey data from teachers, pupils, parents and carers, to allow assessment of the state of behaviour in schools. A good school behaviour policy, agreed and communicated to all staff, governors, pupils, parents and carers, consistently applied, is the basis of an effective approach to managing behaviour. The Committee supports proposals to give clearer emphasis on leading and supporting staff in maintaining and improving standards of behaviour in schools. Schools should also be proactive in establishing relationships with parents and carers on behavioural matters. There are various practical techniques for managing behaviour effectively, but these are poorly disseminated. The forthcoming Green Paper on special educational needs and disability should cover the links between special educational needs and behaviour. The Committee supports the retention of independent appeals panels for exclusions. There are, though, serious concerns over provision of educational psychology services and access to Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS). The Government should consider passing the responsibility for budgets and commissioning of all children's community health services (including mental health services and speech, language and communications needs specialist services) to local authorities.
