Recommended: The impact of role model

There are many ways for how to promote positive behaviour with children and young people. It is important that children grow up to be good adults and therefore they have to learn from a young age how to behave in public.
As a teacher it is important to be a role model to the children. Those children see you every day for a couple of hours and they see what you are doing. Therefore it is important to behave correctly.
The children see everything you are doing and are likely to copy you. The strength of this is, that the children can see where they would like to stand in the future. A teacher can show them what it means to be an adult and that they have to work hard in school to achieve that. A weakness would be that children really copy everything. …show more content…

The children will see it and will also copy it. Therefore as a teacher it is vital to try your best the whole time and have in mind that you are role models.
Listening is also an important tool that promotes positive behaviour. It doesn’t matter if it is a child or an adult. You should always listen to them without interrupting or pre- judging them. It is a powerful tool that makes the children feel that there is someone who listens to them. The strength of listening is that you get information from the children or adult. With that you can work on the next step. The weakness is that you often don’t have the time to listen to everyone. A school day only has a couple of hours and normally you are very busy. Therefore it is vital to take some time where you can listen to others.
Keeping your word is another important tool as this shows the child that you have listened and you took action to solve the problem or task. The strength is, that you know the needs of the children and they accept and trust you when you are listening. The weakness is that you can’t always listen to all the long stories from each child.
There are always some days when misbehaviour occurs due to lack of interest or a

    Sometimes as a teacher we try and do well but sometimes we actually end up hindering. So it is important to understand the child’s perspective so avoid such hindrance. For example, in the novel there is a part when the teacher is reading to the class and Francisco tries to pay attention but since he cannot understand he begins creating his own story to the pictures. Some teachers may take this as sign that he is not paying attention, but in fact he is just in his own way. I think it is also important for teachers to learn the culture and language of the students. This way the student can learn effectively.

    As a preschool teacher, one should be reminded that selfish- behavior is very typical at this age (Omrod, 2014). When this behavior emerges in the classroom, one should encourage prosocial behavior. For example, encourage students to comfort each other when one is feeling sad or angry. Another important rule of thumb should is to make sure classroom standards should be made very clear at the beginning of the school year. These standards should be posted somewhere clearly for everyone to see. If a student misbehaves in class, revisit the standards and give reasons as to why their behavior is unacceptable, also focus on why and how their behavior caused harm or distress to other students or the teacher. Another way to encourage moral and prosocial behavior in the classroom is to model it. Children are more apt to exhibit moral and prosocial behavior when they see others behaving in such a way. Literature is also a great resource for modeling these behaviors as well as giving example of unacceptable behavior. Fun and interactive ways to model and encourag...

    There are many ways which help build rapport with children and young people. One of them is to ensure to actively listen to what they are saying. There may be times were you unintentionally brush aside what a child is saying perhaps it is because you are preoccupied or tired, however, even this can be enough to make a child feel unvalued. Being responded to appropriately reinforces a child's self-esteem. This will in turn help build a trusting relationship. Talking with children, asking and answering questions also helps build their language skills. If pupils are distressed and need to talk about it, they will more likely open up to the person who has made them feel that they have a voice. This is why it is very important to build a respectful and trusting relationship with students, as it can have an impact on most areas of development.

    Active listening, this is not just listening with your ears. You need to show appropriate feedback repeating some of what has been said, maybe in the form of a question. Engage with the child you are talking to and answer/respond when required. Children copy behaviour of others so you need to be the best role model you possibly can be. Children need clear boundaries and limits within the school. They need to know that certain behaviour/actions are unacceptable and will not be tolerated. These boundaries are often outlined in a Home-School agreement that sets out what the school will accept/do. What the parents/careers are expected to follow and also how the child is expected to

    As a teacher I believe that the most effective way to teach children is teaching through play and example by using pictures and gestures. Children are motivated to learn when they have opportunities to make choices in an environment that are inspiring and stimulating. Children are interested from infancy and have a desire to learn from their environment and those around them. When children are encouraged to interact with their peers and adults in positive ways, they feel safe to explore their surroundings. I as teacher have the opportunity to nurture and educate my students on all levels, making sure that my students are being taught developmentally appropriate
