Students will learn how to manage the behavior of anger and learn where it comes from by using self-control strategies. When I teach students how to recognize their undesired behaviors it makes them aware of the behavior and it gives them an opportunity to recognize how anger affects them and others. Then students can work on changing the behavior with positive supports. 

As a special education teacher, I manage extreme behaviors in and out of the classroom. I have taken courses in my master’s program and attend yearly behavior management training. I apply behavior strategies to students with disabilities to teach them self-control and what to do when they are feeling stress, anxiety during transition, when they do not know how to express/communicate what they are feeling etc. In my teaching practice I use learning strategies to assess student’s needs, visuals to reach nonverbal students, words to encourage communication (talk, raise your hand, smile, etc.), conversation starters, hands on projects, and wait time for response.
