The student I observe for my case study is a very imaginative student in our class. I believe this because I can say one word to this student and he can make up a whole story just from that one word. When working one-on-one with a teacher, he is very cooperative and polite. I noticed recently that if a classmate was having difficulty with a particular concept, he would try to give them clues as to the answer. Many behavioral patterns interfered with this student's academic success. The one I would like to focus on for this case study is this student's aggressive behavior. We have been at school for about 9 weeks now and every week we have seen some type of aggressive behavior from this student. This behavior is not accidental, it is intentional. He is not only aggressive towards other students in the class, but also towards the teachers and the principle of our school. An example of this behavior occurred last week during our “work” part of the day after lunch. This boy was sitting at his sweet spot on our assembly mat and suddenly turned around, grabbed another student's head and slammed it against the hard floor. When I moved him away from the rest of the students shortly after this incident, he started kicking and hitting me. Initially, I had assumed that these behaviors only occurred at school toward people the student did not know. However, when the mother started coming to take this student home, he was also kicking, hitting and biting her. When these behaviors occurred towards her mother, nothing was done in response to this behavior on the mother's part. This was simply ignored. When these behaviors occur in our bedroom, like... middle of paper... situations in which this behavior can occur. In this individual context, we see a clear difference in the student's behavior and attitude. The other intervention we can try with this student would be to have him write a book on how to behave in kindergarten and why it is important. This book could potentially serve as a reminder for this student. A third solution would be for us to give this student some quiet time in a safe place. This would allow the student to calm down in whatever way suits them and then rejoin the group. It is important to note again that this is a very rare case in which parents are not willing to work with the school to help their child. This makes things very difficult for my mentor and myself. However, we are trying to implement these things within our class to help this student..
