Abstract: | Sometimes students will exhibit various aggressive behaviors in the preschool classroom. Early childhood educators need to
have behavior management strategies to manage the students’ negative behaviors within the classroom setting. This article
will provide a rationale for embedding literacy instruction within behavior management strategies to assist preschool age
students with negative behaviors. Three widely used classroom management strategies will be explained: group contingencies,
anger management, and individualized behavior plans with differential reinforcement of other behaviors. Each strategy will
have developmentally appropriate literacy skills infused into it. In conclusion, a suggestion will be given to early childhood
educators on how to implement these blended management techniques. |
