Special Needs In Behaviour In Nursery Provisions

From time to time at this very early age in life we come across behaviour problems which are difficult to handle. When this type of situation occurs you need to have a plan of action to deal with it.

For the first step in this situation everyone needs to recognise and describe the child`s behaviour and what sort of things they do.

Once this has been recognised observations need to be carried out to look more closely at the situation to understand when they are showing these behaviours.

The code we give to this behaviour is:-

A- Antecedent

B- What triggers the behaviour

C- Consequence`s

Help needs putting into place for this behaviour and ideas need to be developed. Staff within the provisions need to change the A the B or the C to achieve a different pattern to suit the child with boundaries. Usually this means that the child`s general development is at a stage much younger than actual age.

If activities are made simpler the concentration and skills do gradually build up. In all this rules and regulations are adhered to Such as NO BITING, NO KICKING

And these are given clearly, patiently and repetitively. The child involved begins to play more and other children join in the group so that they learn to play alongside others. Staff then need to plan how to handle these incidents of disruptive behaviour. The best way of dealing with the situation is to give very clear "NO" and taken away from the situation and show them something positive instead.

SUMMARY

Staff concentrate on a couple of the behaviours that cause the most concern. Simple clear rules are set to change the behaviour they want to change and handle it consistently when it does happen. Activities are made more fun so the concentration play and behaviour is better. Help is given to the child to avoid the situation where the problem behaviour occurs.

Overall continued observations are kept so as evaluations are made to check on progress and see if plans are working.
