Focus On Working With Challenging Behaviours
This Canadian Child Care Federation series is divided into three 3-hour sessions and is recommended to be offered intermittently to enable participants an opportunity to internalize information and apply it to practice between sessions. In determining the delivery method of these sessions, it is important that the process of delivery for the three sessions be determined based on the level of education and experience of participants.
Session One will focus on exploring the whys and wherefores of children’s behaviour, understanding what children may gain from challenging behaviour and your role in assessing the function that challenging behaviour plays and examining the effects that challenging behaviour may have on the other children in the program and on the practitioners.
Session Two will identify strategies that prevent or minimize challenging behaviours, recognize anxiety and other early warning signs of challenging behaviours, and examine and where necessary, change the practitioner’s approach to challenging behaviour. It will also establish how to use observation techniques to gain more information about challenging behaviour.
Session Three will identify appropriate behaviour strategies, and how to develop, implement and evaluate a plan of action for coping with challenging behaviours, including determining when outside intervention is necessary. In this session, we will focus on working with parents as partners around challenging behaviours, help other children and their parents cope with challenging behaviour, and reflect on your professional practice, practice of relationships and as it relates to challenging behaviour.
