Challenging Behavior in Young Children by Barbara Kaiser

For courses in the Guidance of Young Children or Guidance/Classroom Management in Early Childhood Education This package includes the Enhanced Pearson eText and the bound book.    A new edition of the acclaimed, best-selling survival guide for teachers struggling to find answers to children’s challenging behavior. Stressing that every child has some kind of special need, especially children with challenging behavior, this book contains numerous practical, indispensable tips for responding to those needs, building relationships with children and their families, and preventing challenging behavior. It provides teachers with background information that enables them to understand why children behave the way they do and presents several evidence-based strategies to address their challenging behavior effectively so that teachers can select those best suited to the child and the situation. Useful to education students as well as in-service teachers in pre-school, child care, and primary school, the book emphasizes the importance of the teacher’s role in the behavior of children and encourages students and educators to reflect on their own values, feelings, and actions. In addition to up-to-date research on culture, dual-language learning, resilience, and inclusion, this new edition focuses on what stress can do to children’s brains, executive function, and behavior.   Invigorate learning with the Enhanced Pearson eText The Enhanced Pearson eText provides a rich, interactive learning environment designed to improve student mastery of content with embedded videos. The Enhanced Pearson eText is also available without a print version.   Instructors, visit pearsonhighered.com/etextbooks/ted to register for your digital examination copy.
