Sped Teacher Small Talk Segment w/Co-Host Paul Hubbard
Preventing Problem Behaviors for Autistic Students
Welcome to the 4th installment of the Sped Teacher Small Talk series with co-host Paul Hubbard, where we dive into a randomly generated topic each month.
In this episode, we discuss preventing problem behaviors in the classroom, specifically for students on the autism spectrum.
Paul and Jennifer highlight the importance of understanding that each student with autism is unique and may exhibit different behaviors.
Paul shares his personal experience with having multiple students on the spectrum in his classroom this year and the challenges that come with it. He notes that disruptive behaviors can be difficult for everyone involved and while a one-on-one teaching environment would be ideal, it's not feasible due to the shortage of teachers and aides.
This episode emphasizes the need for effective strategies to prevent problem behaviors in a classroom setting, and it sheds light on the challenges that educators face in providing the best support for their students.
Listen in as Jennifer and Paul give helpful tips about:
- the importance to consider environmental and social factors
- how to help students regulate themselves
- how strategies that work for one student may not work for another, and what works for a student one day might not work the next
- why teachers need to stay flexible and ready to adjust
- and ways to customize a plan for each student
