This book provides step-by-step strategies for overcoming the 50 most frequently encountered guidance challenges in early childhood settings. Fifty Early Childhood Guidance Strategiespresents an easy-to-use, easy-to-understand positive approach involving the young children themselves in eliminating their inappropriate behavior. Teachers will quickly learn what to expect when children first enter the early childhood classroom, how to assess children's behavior, how to redirect it, and how to get children involved in controlling their own actions. The 50 strategies include appropriate behavior categories such as possession conflicts and power struggles, and teacher concerns such as intervention (how and when) and time-out (using or not using).Inservice Teachers, Early Childhood Coordinators, Child-Centered Learning Centers, Head Start programs.
