Case: EBD in the regular ed classroom
A student who was adopted at birth recently found out that he was adopted and has used this as an excuse to act out in every area of his life. He has been classified as EBD and has recently started going back to counseling outside of the school building. When his teacher asks him a simple math question he gets angry, throws the book across the room and curses the teacher out. In a self-contained classroom this behavior is more manageable, but in a regular education classroom it becomes a huge disruption. What are some ways of effectively dealing with this EBD child who struggles to understand his actions are unwanted and unwelcomed by the teacher and the other students in the room?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The teacher and the student can come up with a system of signals so the student can communicate his moods in a more appropriate way. If the student is feeling frustrated and does not want to answer a question prompted by the teacher, he can give a hand signal. Perhaps he can hold up a "one" with his pointer finger, signaling that he "needs a minute" to cool down. The teacher may also want to give him a stress ball each time he comes into the room. If he is feeling upset or frustrated, he can squeeze the stress ball. It is important for the teacher to communicate these new strategies one-on-one, and not in front of the other students. The teacher needs to also communicate that the way this student is reacting is unacceptable for the classroom, but these new strategies may be used as often as he likes. The teacher may also develop their own signal to the student to communicate that the student's behavior is getting out of line. |
