Which support do these people need?

Children who have emotional or behavioral disabilities (ED or BD)

exhibit unusually withdrawn or aggressive behaviors. The key to

helping children with ED is to pinpoint the behavior you want to

change and create new behavior goals for the child.

Children who are suffering from emotional disability may find it

hard to cope with school and mingle with other children. This can be

hard to deal with for the child. It is best to catch the condition early

on so that you can help the child change his behavior by providing

the support he needs.

INSTRUCTIONS

I. Identify the behavior youwant to change. Keep awritten record of thebehaviors the child exhibitsduring social and independent

play and academic activity.For example: "I want A toplay without hitting otherchildren," "I want B toremain quiet during a test," "Iwant C to stay seated duringa lesson." Once you describethe child's behavior in termsof observable actions, youwill be able to monitor andmediate the behavior.


10/27

INSTRUCTIONS

II. Create a new behavior toreplace the behavior youwant to change. If the childis aggressive toward others

while working in a groupyou may want the child totake turns or talk in a quiettone of voice while in agroup. Remember to create

an alternative behavior thatis directly observable.


11/27

INSTRUCTIONS

III. Establish rewards and/orconsequences for behaviors.Overall, it's more effective toreward the positive behavior that

you are trying to increase than topunish the behavior you are tryingto decrease. If the behavior doesnot pose an immediate threat toyou, the child, or other children - ordoes not disrupt the entire grouplesson - try to ignore the disruptivebehavior while rewarding the

positive behavior. There are severaltrade and self-help books availablewith ideas for positive and effectivereward systems.


12/27

INSTRUCTIONS

IV. Provide plenty of opportunities to practice new

behaviors. Students with ED usually have difficulty

working with others whether they are aggressive or

withdrawn. You will want to set up social situationswhere the child can practice taking turns in a group or

with a partner, and sharing and talking appropriately.

Role-play appropriate responses to social conflicts.


13/27

INSTRUCTIONS

V. Teach the child to monitor progress independently. Have

charts in folders, in a locker or at home where the child

can document progress in achieving a particular

behavioral goal. Have the child write or verbally explain

why a certain behavior is unacceptable and what

behavior the child can do to change it.


14/27

INSTRUCTIONS

VI. Role-play and hold conflict-resolution

meetings so the child can practice anddiscuss alternative responses to socialsituations.

children with disabilities, access to information, education,rehabilitation, community life is extremely low, one of themajor need is accessibility.

In the space of social interaction between individuals is

manifested through the multiple roles that individuals play

them. The rules are a specific requirement of the role,

being the rules that govern individual and collective

behaviors. Social groups tend to spontaneously generate

rules whose function is to create a collective framework for

action based on consensus. Roles and rules adopted by

individuals is determined by context and human interaction

space.

Education - Pedagogy is the science of educational

phenomenon with all its implications on the formation of

human personality in order to integrate the assets of theperson's social life. Throughout history, the company

acquired theoretical knowledge and practical experience in

the condensed material and spiritual values which

constitute the social inheritance of culture and civilization.

Following the motto of the socializationof children with disabilities: "LEARNINGTOGETHER, CHILDREN LEARN TOLIVE TOGETHER! "we conclude thatthe period of social concerns, in fact, tointegration. School integration is aprocess of inclusion in mainstreamschools / classes common in formal andnon-formal children considered ashaving special educational needs.

Considering the school as the main

court for the socialization of children,school integration is a process of socialintegration customization of thiscategory of children, a process that is offundamental importance in facilitatingthe subsequent integration in

community life through the formation ofbehavior and attitudes of skills andfavorable qualities of this process.

Living with a disability is

not easy. Neither is taking

strong and you do what youhave to do to make things

work, and to make life easier

and comfortable as possible

for the person with thedisability.
