The Dreikurs Model

Task two.

2.1 Explain the principles which underpin a chosen behaviour management model.

I have chosen to look at the Dreikurs' model as I feel like the model sticks out to me by catching my interest, I feel like this model looks at all aspects of aspects for the children/ young people and their behavioural management within a setting. I believe this as The Dreikurs' Model supports teachers in the classroom to know hot to understand the management children's behaviour by not using discipline or punishments in the classroom but by getting children and young people to understand their own behaviour, this would mean that they will be able to know how to behave when in the setting as the teacher sets firm guidance's of how to act and how not

All teachers/ practitioners set example for all to follow in the setting on how to act around and to each others in the setting. for example using manners and being nice to each other, not letting anyone be left out and included them in games/ activities in the setting. Children often in some settings come up with their own classroom rules that must be followed all year long, these may change when the years go up as the children and young people think of more and more ways of what is expectable and what is not expectable behaviour in the …show more content…

2.3 Review the following roles in relation to the chosen behaviour management model;

· Children and/ or young people

Children and young people in charge of the way that they behave, from the early years of children's and young people's life's they know what they do and do not want to do or have. These choices reflect the way that their behaviour is. While observing the Dreikurs' model in practice I am able to see the way that children behaviour is looked at and managed in the setting.

· Staff

All staff within childcare have a number of responsibilities that they have to up hold in the work place. When in a setting practitioners must act within a positive manner so that they can lead children and young people in how to behave. Children and young people are very observant so whilst these are around staff member during the weeks that they are in the setting they are constantly picking up on the way that they are behaving therefore learning through seeing.

· Parents/

    As I read the Chapter 4 of Ron Morrish “Organizing and present a basic discipline plan”, I reflected on a the behaviors my client display in their school setting, which places them as at-risk students due to their unwanted behaviors of disrespecting, disruption, off-task and etc. Morrish defining ‘real discipline compare to behavioral management’ is a strategy I try to impede to my client’s but is unofficial as students need early development from their parents to understand how to behave according to society norms. When it comes to teaching along with being a Therapist, our focus is the behaviors of student through ‘behavior management and/or behavior modification’, but through Morrish theory, the discipline within the student is the primary…

    For this extended assignment I have chosen to look at how behaviour may affect children's or young people's development. Negative behaviour can be seen when the children's and young people's needs are not being met such as lack of sleep and when they are hungry. Difficult behaviour can be caused by a trauma or a crisis that has happened in the child's life. Children may show this kind of behaviour because they want to be the centre of attention or if they are not getting their own way and they may behave inappropriately in order to get their own way. Other examples that could affect children's behaviour include if a member of the family in the child's life such as mother or father has left and they may think that it's their fault .Also…

    All staff needs to recognize and highlight good behaviour when it occurs and know how to deal with inappropriate behaviour . If inappropriate behaviour of the child or a young person is temporary and if we are able to manage it within the setting, then there is no need to refer them to a professional. According to Guidance for Safer Working Practice for Adults who work with Children and Young People in Education Settings (2009, p. 20) “Where children display difficult or challenging behavior, adults must follow the behavior policy outlined by their school or service and use strategies appropriate to the circumstance and situation.” Knowing the policy of the school will enable us to work more effectively with the children.…

    Teachers bring their own background knowledge, perceptions and experiences into the classroom which can also set a certain cultural tone in their classrooms and with their students. Teachers are encouraged to change their thinking by establishing a positive sense of culture and community in the classroom by using peer interaction to teach social skills. A daily morning meeting, where the classroom is demonstrating social skills, would be an example of creating culture amongst students in the classroom. Teachers need to set clear rules for expectations and procedures for all things in the classroom and allow for multiple opportunities for these interactions to be practiced and reinforced. Students also need to know what is appropriate and not appropriate and they need clear…

    Rudolf Dreikurs For Rudolf Dreikurs, a child's basic need is to be socially accepted. Misbehavior in this theory is rooted in “faulty logic that misbehavior will give him the social acceptance which he desires,” (Jones 2016, 33). Dreikurs developed four goals of disruptive behaviors: attention seeking, to gain power, to seek revenge, or display an inadequacy (Jones 2016, 33). Display of inadequacy may mean the student disengages from the activity or lesson. Dreikurs described these behaviors as “mistaken goals,” (Malmgren 2005, 37).…

Involve children in developing some limits in the classroom, this will make them feel important and if they themselves have set the rules then the chances of breaking the rule is very less. Be clear on the transition process and limits involved in transition.…
