Even if we have developed the best, most effective classroom management plan we can think of, there will always be a few students who act out or disrupt the flow of learning. This is no different for Ms. Anderson. She is a 5thgrade teacher, who in their second semester together, has run into a disruption problem involving two of her students, Patrick and Zach. Ms. Anderson’s class …show more content…
If he had to mirror appropriate actions during independent work time, Zach would be a perfect partner because he is always quiet. This will likely help improve the interpersonal relationship between Patrick and Zach and help the two be more productive in class without causing disruptions. The strategies for encouraging appropriate behavior listed on the Star Sheets provided are specific praise (verbal and written statements), criterion specific rewards(positive reinforcement system), choicemaking (selecting options), effective rules (general rules for the classroom), contingent instructions (specific instructions to one individual), and group contingency (reinforcement techniques for groups) (Curran, C., & the IRIS Center., 2003). In this situation, I would choose choicemaking and specific praise for both Zach and Patrick, since they are both causing the disruptions and need to find the same result when it comes to appropriate behavior. For Patrick, I would implement these particular goals for Zach and Patrick because they both desire attention from their teacher and by simply praising them when they complete independent work or correctly answer during class discussions will help them in the long run to become more accustomed to exemplifying appropriate behavior. If Ms. Anderson gives the
In the beginning of the book, Zach was just a regular jock who only cared about sports, joking around and doesn’t pay attention

Months later after Zach finished dwelling on his father's death he was approached by an old man when he was taking a stroll in the park with his best friend and somehow he knew all about Zach's superpowers.

A: MHP taught Timothy problem solving skills for challenging behaviors and situations. MHP assisted Timothy in identifying troublesome behaviors and complimentary problem solving techniques. MHP in conjunction with his grandparents assigned Timothy a period of time where he can indulge in any desirable activities or behaviors that are not self-destructive. MHP utilized the timeout technique to intervene from detrimental behaviors or attitudes. MHP taught Timothy how to utilize this time to reflect on alternative behaviors and attitudes. MHP provided
Zach has a much harder time expressing his emotions in public, however, and unwilling to share what has happened with Alice and Poppy, he tells them that he's simply no longer interested in playing. It's a huge deal—the end of an era, really—but Zach doesn't let on that he cares.
A teacher is frustrated with a students continuous disruptions in class and has tired strategies to improve the student’s behavior with no success. A behavioral model of consultation would be used with the teacher to improve the student and teacher’s functioning (Sciarra, 2004). The counselor, as a consultant, would first meet with the teacher to identify and assess the problem. The consultant, after gathering data from the teacher, would identify that the student seems to be disruptive during times when self-directed work is assigned and the teacher gets frustrated because the student does not listen to repeated directions. Next, the consultant would gather more information about the student and any environmental limitations, such as strengths and weaknesses, intellectual functioning, learning deficits, physical limitations
Zach watches television rarely, but when he does, he gazes at “Supernatural” and “The Walking Dead”. Wonder why he likes creatures like that? Why do the zombies look so real? Zachary is not a stereotype boy. Zach is fifteen and already favors work. Hunting is just one of his many hobbies. Zach slaughtered a massive buck. Zach exclaimed, “It was the biggest I have ever laid my eyes on!” Zachary listens to music while he works. He does not have a favorite type of music, it just depends on his mood. Playing with his dogs, Zach loves to run and play. Zach also likes to ride fourwheelers. He loves his grandad so much.

When Zach got up to go to his new school and he freaked. He called to his mom, “I’m not going to school,” said Zach.
This is the starting point of all the conflicts in the story; where we find out who Zachary really is and how he behaves. Zack was an irresponsible teenager, “He lied over trifles, and periodically stole money out of wallets that were left lying around. He started smoking at thirteen, and was into the liquor cabinet by fourteen. At sixteen, he smashed up our car one night after a poker party. Once he dumped Dad’s red tool box, tools and all, in the river during one of his rages.” (4) This causes problems in the story as later on it ends up impacting the family.
Basing his research off of the social learning theory, Bandura conducted the experiment using multiple control groups. Social learning theories believe that “human interaction is the primary factor in the development of human personality.” Important people and those with authority can influence a child’s behavior by “reinforcing certain behaviors and ignoring or punishing others.” If a child sees that it is okay for an adult to act in an aggressive manner, they will most likely also act aggressively. However, if a child sees that others are punished for acting aggressively, they are less likely to perform those actions.
