Addressing Challenging Behavior in Young Children: The Leader's Role (eBook)
National Association for the Education of Young Children (Verlag)
978-1-938113-90-1 (ISBN)
The stakes are high when children get kicked out of early childhood programs: they learn that no one believes in their ability to succeed. As states and school districts increasingly prohibit the suspension and expulsion of young children, directors and administrators of early childhood programs and principals of schools play a crucial role in making it possible for children with challenging behavior to remain in school and learn.
Covering topics such as building an environment that promotes positive behavior, reflecting on the effects of bias and expectations on behavior, and empowering staff to use effective guidance strategies, this book offers ideas that leaders can actually implement while maintaining a high-quality learning environment.
Barbara Kaiser, MA, is the coauthor of Challenging Behavior in Young Children (now in its 4th edition) and Meeting the Challenge.

Barbara acted as chief consultant for the Mr. Rogers’ Family Communications project, Challenging Behaviors: Where Do We Begin? and for Facing the Challenge, an instructional DVD produced by the Devereux Center for Resilient Children. She also developed an intervention to address youth violence; created webinars and guides on bullying for the Nova Scotia Department of Education; and founded and directed two early childhood centers and an after-school program in Montreal. She has an MA from McGill University. Recently she has given webinars on leadership and on supporting children, families, and staff returning to school and child care during the COVID-19 pandemic.
