| Summary: | This booklet provides an overview of the characteristics and needs of children with emotional and behavior disorders during the elementary and secondary school years. Each section also includes examples of projects, programs, and interventions that practitioners have implemented with positive results in school settings. After an introductory chapter on the challenges of teaching students with emotional and behavioral disorders, the first section, "The Elementary School Years," discusses some of the relevant developmental factors teachers can use when motivating students to modify their beliefs as well as their behaviors. Twenty suggested interventions are listed and a chart of age-normed behavior for children ages 5 through 12 is provided. The second section, "The Secondary School Years," outlines the developmental tasks that adolescents face for a successful transition from childhood to adulthood. Key factors that need to be addressed to respond effectively to the specific needs of secondary-level students with emotional or behavioral disorders are also identified. Programs that encourage students to establish positive relationships with peers and adults and explore a range of academic and vocational domains within protective boundaries are described, including therapeutic recreation, the Wolf Pack, camping, conflict resolution, affective instruction, and work and responsible self-management.
