In the story when Pete was treated well by Maybelle, he treated Richard well. From this Richard grew more curious and sociable and he grew happier. "Pete, I am gladder that you are like my brother than anything else in the world." In this long chain where Maybelle treated Pete well, everyone benefitted.

An activity Jimmy will perform to achieve his short term goal is playing freeze dance with his sister. Jimmy likes music so getting music involved is important. It also says that Jimmy’s sister is afraid to play with him so getting them to do an activity together can help everyone. Playing freeze dance with just his sister will help him adjust to a bigger group of kids in the future. Even though it says Jimmy likes to play with other kids he still throws a temper tantrum when he is challenged. If we start off by playing a game Jimmy will be good at it can build his confidence and hopefully control his temper tantrums. This will help us later on achieve our long term goal. When Jimmy is playing freeze dance I will make sure he is working on

Landon has a high risk of becoming a delinquent. He has shown an aggressive behavior and lack of respect to authority. At age 6 he has already stolen a candy bar and has already hit his mother with a 4 foot long stick which caused bruising on his mother. His aggressive behavior and impulsivity may lead to consequences in the future. Considering that Landon lives in a low-income community that has high rates of gang violence Landon could go through that negative path if his behavior is not control on time. Landon’s father has been arrested for domestic violence with Landon’s step-mom which could be the cause of Landon’s aggressive behavior because his dad might be his role model. Landon could be rehabilitated. A solution to Landon’s behavior is to send him to therapy and have him continue his therapy till the age of 17. Also, let Landon spend more time with his dad because he needs father figure more involve in his life.

School-age children(7-11 Years) have poor school performance.

The child will also have behavior problems with peers and adults. Because of the lack of observable

I first read the article about positive behavioral supports. I gained an insight about the importance of knowing and observing the child. If we do not carefully do observation, we could misunderstand why a child is behaving a certain way. If we do not understand the why, then we cannot solve the problem. We need to know the purpose of the behavior so we can teach an alternate behavior that provides the same purpose as the undesired behavior. We as teachers can also lessen the amount of times a student is exposed to the trigger which causes the behavior. If we do all of these parts we can help a child overcome the negative behavior and replace it with a positive behavior. I am going to practice looking at what trigger’s Matthew’s bad behavior so that I can avoid those triggers. This will help me learn the process so I will be a more effective teacher when I have my own classroom.
