Behavior Therapy Theory And Aggressive Behavior In Children
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Aggressive children present a specific challenge to kindergarten teachers, inasmuch as their behavior must be maintained in such a way that does not inadvertently antagonize the situation. Teachers are often faced with the grim reality that nothing they say or do will ultimately help diffuse the child's aggressive behavior if the primary source of agitation stems from the family atmosphere or genetic problem. Attempting to implement behavior therapy is one way teachers have of addressing the issue of aggressive children in the classroom. The writer discusses that with the help of parents and professional therapists, teachers are learning the art of behavior therapy as a means by which to control otherwise contentious and belligerent students. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
