About this title

Synopsis

Early childhood professionals working in group settings have a particular responsibility to manage young children's behavior in a way that enhances their development, learning and self esteem. This book provides the information professionals need to become more skilled in this very challenging aspect of their work. Rodd shows how children's behavior is related to developmental stages and discusses the implications of children's limited understanding of right and wrong. She suggests a range of positive strategies for managing inappropriate behavior and shows how to develop flexible, individualized approaches. Heavily illustrated with examples, this is a valuable resource for both students and professionals.
