Reply To: Reducing challenging behaviour in children

[EdiForum admin]

Hi Madeleine, thanks so much for sharing. This behaviour is something we often hear about, so you’re definitely not alone.

One strategy that might help is rostering “connection time” by setting aside a few minutes of one-on-one attention with each child. A quick chat, sitting with them during play or noticing something they’re doing well can make a real difference.

We’ve also just created a fact sheet with some other simple strategies to help reduce challenging behaviour. If you’re interested you can check it out here: https://www.edutribe.com.au/resources/8-strategies-to-reduce-challenging-behaviour-fact-sheet/
