For this Assignment you will search resources to support your Case Study Child and Family. You will select resources or ideas to help strengthen your child’s ability to be successful at school and home. The goal is to eliminate the challenging behavior and to replace it with prosocial skills and coping mechanisms.

Possible resources, depending on your child needs:

Regulating temper
Self control
skills needed to get a need meet or secure a desired toy without using aggression
Communication skills
Transitions skills and support
Building social skills or developing empathy
Build a positive mindset (a belief in their abilities)
Build executive function.

These are only few examples. You selection will depend on your child’s needs and the needs of the family. The family resource should reflect needs that are specific to home life challenges. If your child is fictional do you best to decide on one based on the information you have been given.

This is your chance to explore a website designed to support teachers and families in supporting challenging behavior and in creating environments and developing practices that support healthy social and emotional development in all children.
