Externalizing Social and Emotional Disorders are usually able to be noticed by the wide variety of characteristics. In a classroom a student who exhibits an externalizing behavior disorder will be very aggressive. They may demand the teacher's attention, disobey, be disruptive, or have intense aggression toward other students or school property. These students have a hard time interacting with classmates and are typically outcasted. Most likely their grades will suffer along with their social development.
1. Social and emotional disorders are an inability to learn that cannot be explained by intellectual, sensory, or health factors. They can also be an inability to build or maintain satisfactory interpersonal relationships with peers and teachers. 2. General characteristics of a person with social and emotional disorders include hyperactivity, aggression, and delinquency. People with this disorder can have tantrums and are very hostile. This can cause them to become arguementative. 3.I would help these students with this disorder learn by making sure that they were socially and emotionally comfortable in my classroom. If they were not comfortable I would create a plan that would help the student become more comfortable and I would create as many plans as it took in order for this child to feel socially and emotionally comfortable in my classroom. 4.There are many resources that a special education teacher could use. For example, they could ask a school counselor for advice. They could also communicate with the child's parents and work together to figure out the beest solution for the child.
Anxiety is being in an unstable emotional state. Anxiety has physiological symptoms that can cause extreme fatigue and exhaustion.
Obsessive compulsive disorder is a type of anxiety disorder. There are many characteristics that a person with this disability will show. The main features are obsessions, compulsions, insights, and resistance. People suffering from an obsessive compulsive disorder tend to get extremely distracted by unpleasant thoughts or obsessions that they just can not help. This causes them to have high anxiety. Another characteristic that is common among people with this disability is obsessions with religion. They may feel the need to pray repeatedly during the day, taking up hours of their time. They also tend to spend a great deal of time on counting things, making sure everything is in order, washing their hands because they fear they may be contaminated, and making sure doors are locked. Little things tend to take up major time in their life, having a negative effect on the way they live.
As a teacher in a classroom that has a student dealing with an obsessive compulsive disorder, it would be difficult to tend to all of their needs, but very possible. If I were a teacher and had a student with this disability, I would be very understanding because I tend to want things in a specific order and am constantly washing my hands, making sure they are germ free. In a classroom of my own, I would make sure that there was antibacterial gel accessible to every student at all times. I would try my best to make my classroom be as neat, clean, and organized as possible to prevent the child with OCD of having unnecessary anxiety. As a teacher with a student who has a disability, I would be accepting of their needs and try to make sure that the other students were treating the child the same. I plan to make any classroom that I teach in, a welcoming environment where everyone feels comfortable. If that particular student needs extra help academically I would be sure to put in any extra time to make sure he or she was keeping up with the rest of the class.
There are many resources that can help a teacher to serve a child with an obsessive compulsive anxiety disorder. I think one of the most important resources are the child’s parents. If the parents are willing to help their child, they can give the teacher a good amount of background information. It is always beneficial when the parents and teacher can work together. This way the teacher can be on a more personal level with the student and understand him or her even better. Another resource always available is the school’s psychologist. This person will most likely be knowledgeable of the disability itself. Therefore, they may be able to give the teacher strategies for dealing with the child. In some cases the psychologist may also know additional information about the particular child that can further assist the teacher. One other resource is www.cec.sped.org. This website is a useful tool for anyone dealing with a child who has any kind of disability. The site gives background information on the various disabilities and can help answer any questions one may have. The Council for Exceptional Children’s website is a resource that teachers with students who have disabilities, need to have access to.
