Behavior Management

Domain VI of The CMS ApproachTM focuses on the management of the behavior of students in your classroom. Behavior Management focuses on guiding and directing student behavior to promote positive conduct and minimize disruptive or undesirable actions.

With behavior management, teachers use different methods like setting clear rules, giving rewards for desired behavior, and consequences for undesirable behavior. They also teach students better ways to act, create routines, and offer support based on what each student needs.

The aim is to encourage desirable behavior, help students socialize better, and make sure everyone can learn and feel good.

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a systematic approach to understanding how behaviors work and are influenced by the surrounding environment. ABA therapy provides a unique yet extremely effective approach to classroom management for students with ASD and related disabilities.

Based on the idea that behavior can be changed by rewarding desired behaviors and discouraging unwanted ones, ABA provides an effective approach to behavior management. Teachers can use the principles of behavior analysis to improve their students’ language, social, and communication skills, enhance their attention, and reduce problem behaviors. 

ABA employs a variety of strategies, including reinforcement techniques (rewards) and specialized teaching methods tailored to the specific needs of each student. The aim is to encourage desirable behavior and reduce problem behavior. 

Reinforcement Systems for Classrooms

Reinforcement systems are an integral part of Behavior Management in Domain VI of The CMS ApproachTM. Reinforcement systems can be a helpful tool for teachers to manage and improve student behavior in the classroom.

Reinforcement systems help teachers make sure students know what is expected of them.

It can also help give students a boost of encouragement when they do well. 

Reinforcement is all about creating a supportive environment where every child can succeed. Teachers can use rewards and praise to motivate students and keep all students engaged and active.

Behavior Reduction Strategies

Behavior reduction strategies use a systematic approach to finding ways to reduce or eliminate unwanted or problematic behaviors in the classroom. These behaviors include outbursts, tantrums, or hitting.

The main goal is to improve the classroom experience by reducing behaviors that disrupt the learning process of students. Teachers might try different tactics depending on how serious the behavior is and how much it disrupts the class.
