The Most Vulnerable Kids in Our Society...

Can We Tell Who They Are?  

Behaviorially-­‐Challenged  Kids

Behaviorally-Challenging Kids

Some kids exhibit severe and frequent behavior challenges when they have difficulty

meeting expectations.

Behaviorally-Challenging Kids vs. Well-Behaved Kids

All students have difficulty meeting expectations, but the most vulnerable kids

express their feelings more intensely and in troublesome, sometimes damaging ways.

Important  QuesBons  

Are we fostering the skills on the more

positive side of human nature?

What skills are we talking

about?

What should we be doing

instead? 1.  Empathy

2.  Appreciating how our behavior affects others

3.  Resolving disagreements without conflict

4.  Taking another’s perspective

5.  Honesty

We Must Foster Social Emotional

Skills to See These Skills

College students are 30-40% less empathic and are significantly more narcissistic than they

were 20 years ago. Research citations: go to livesinthebalance.org/research

What  Happened  to    These  Skills?  

•  Layout  #2  •  Photo  –  teachers  giving  a  test  to  a  room  full  of  students  

•  Text  under  photo  – We  began  assessing  teacher’s  job  performance  and  basing  their  job  security  on  how  well  their  students  did  on  high-­‐stakes  tests.  

What Happened to Social Emotional

Skills?

Job performance and job security are based on how well students do on high-stakes tests.

Let’s  Put  Humanity  Back    Into  Teacher’s  Jobs    

•  Use  Layout  #2  •  Photo:  SEL  throughout  the  school  day  (something  from  Ed’s  preso,  or  similar?)  

•  Text  under  photo:  –   Social  emoBonal  skills  development  has  to  be  embedded  into  the  curriculum  and  be  pracBced  and  modeled  over  the  course  of  the  school  day.  

Social emotional skills development has to be embedded into the curriculum, practiced, and

modeled throughout the school day.

Unsolved Problems

Behaviorally-challenging students have large piles of unsolved problems.

We need to answer why and when with an assessment of lagging skills and unsolved problems.

QuesBons:  What  behaviors  is  the  kid  exhibiBng  when  he’s  struggling?    What  diagnosBc  categories  best  summarize  the  behaviors?  

Questions Not to Ask

What diagnostic categories best summarize the

behaviors?

What behaviors does the

kid exhibit when he’s struggling?

Go  Upstream  

•  Layout  #2  •  Image:    team  of  men/women  paddling  upstream  –  maybe  in  a  canoe  or  a  rad?  Not  whitewater  –  just  a  gentle  upstream    

•  Text  under  image  Focusing  on  what’s  going  on  upstream  that  causes  bad  behaviors  

helps  us  solve  problems  that  are  floaBng  downstream  to  us.    

Look Upstream

Focusing on what’s going on

upstream that causes bad

behaviors helps us solve problems

that are floating downstream to us.

•  Layout  #2  •  Photo  of  8-­‐9  yr  old  hispanic  girl  crying,  sobbing  

•  Text  under  photo  Behaviors  like  whining,  sulking,  withdrawing  and  crying  are  

expressions  of  difficulty  meeBng  expectaBons  

Whining, sulking, withdrawing, and crying are expressions of difficulty meeting expectations.

•  Layout  #2  •  Photo/Image  –  entering  a  scary/dark  problem  zone..  

•  Text  under  photo  Discipline  problems  in  schools  and  adult-­‐imposed  consequences  

to  stop  them  may  make  a  dent  in  bad  behavior  but  won’t  solve  the  problems  causing  them.  

Discipline problems in schools and adult-imposed consequences to stop them

may make a dent in bad behaviors, but won’t solve the problems causing them.

•  Layout  #2  Montage  of  kids,  various  ages,  male/female,  and  ethniciBes  –  screaming,  biBng,  spitng,  kicking,  destroying  things  –  really  bad  behaviors  

Text  underneath:  All  behavior,  no  maner  how  extreme,  is  a  student’s  

expression  of  the  fact  that  there  are  expectaBons  he  or  she  is  having  difficulty  meeBng.  

 

All behavior, no matter how extreme,

is a student’s expression that he or

she is having difficulty meeting

expectations.

significantly  less  focused  on  modifying  behavior  and  were  significantly  more  focused  on  helping  them  solve  the  problems  that  affect  their  lives.  

All students would be in much better shape if we focused significantly less on modifying behavior and focused significantly more on helping them solve problems that affect their lives.

•  Layout  #2  •  Image  of  long  list  of  diagnosBcs  of  behavior  problems,  next  to  a  kid  maybe  with  a  stethoscope  exam  by  health  professional

services,  funding,  and  placements  on  eliminaBng  behaviors  instead  of  solving  problems  

Diagnostic categories put students into clusters that drive our services, funding, and placements, and focus us on eliminating behaviors instead of solving problems

always  done  it  to  we  probably  ought  to  think  of  something  else  to  do!  If the way we’ve always done it isn’t working for

the kids we’ve always done it to, we probably ought to think of something else to do!

Three Steps to Collaborative Problem Solving

Empathy Step

Define Adult Concerns Step

Invitation Step

Empathy  Step  

•  Layout  #2  •  Image  –male  teen  talking  to  woman/adult  –  adult  is  taking  notes/listening  

Text  under  photo  Gather  informaBon  and  listen  to  the  student’s  concerns,  

perspecBve  and  point  of  view  on  the  unsolved  problem-­‐  in  a  honest,  caring  way.    

 

Step 1: Empathy

Gather information and listen to the student’s concerns, perspective and point of view on the

unsolved problem – in a honest, caring way.

Define  Adult  Concerns  Step  

•  Layout  #2  •  Image:    Adult  is  talking  to  similar  aged/type  of  student  –  student  is  carefully  listening  to  the  adult  

•  Text  under  photo  Share  your  concerns  with  the  student  -­‐-­‐  about  the  unsolved  

problem,  and  how  it  is  affecBng  him  and  how  it  is  affecBng  others.    

 

Step 2: Define Adult

Concerns

Share your concerns with the student – about the unsolved problem, and how it is affecting him and how it is affecting others.

The  InvitaBon  Step  

•  Layout  #2  •  Image  –  adult  and  student  each  holding  a  piece  of  a  puzzle  or  something  that  fits  together  nicely  –  soluBon  to  a  problem  

•  Text  under  photo  Reach  agreement  with  the  student  for  a  soluBon  to  the  problem  

that  is  realisBc  and  that  addresses  both  your  concerns.  Reach agreement with the student

for a solution to the problem that is realistic and that addresses both your concerns.

Anthony was having difficulty staying in the general ed classroom. That was the unsolved problem.

During the empathy step with Anthony, we learned the classroom was too crowded and too noisy.

When it got too crowded and too noisy, Anthony would go to the resource room.

Anthony was trying to get away from noisy, crowded classrooms, especially math.

Reading was something Anthony could do, even when it was too noisy and too crowded.

Anthony was missing out on a lot of learning and social interactions when he was in the resource room.

Anthony was permitted to choose between the two noisiest and loudest classrooms in the 4th grade.

The adults felt very good about the reward they were giving Anthony. But it was an uninformed solution.

We were delighted to solve this problem collaboratively. Plan B was for Anthony to stay in

the general education classroom, except for math, music, and the morning meeting.

Empathy Step Communications:

What Do Students Hear?

•  Interested in your concerns •  Your concerns are valid

•  We’re ready to help

•  You’re not in trouble

•  We’re not mad at you

– We  are  partners,  not  enemies;  we  are  team-­‐mates,  not  adversaries  

– We  can  help  each  other!  

My concerns will be addressed, and I’m making sure that yours are, too. We can resolve disagreements without conflict. We are partners, not enemies; we are teammates, not adversaries. We can help each other!
