It can be analyzed that the strategy applied enabled student to identify their own behavior. They identified that following of rules resulted in making them discipline. They talked with others with respect and did not fight. In addition to it, by taking chocolate they identified that good behavior leads to benefit and gifts.

c) What other strategies or choices would you implement in the future and why?

In future there are several strategies that can be implemented. First is conducting games where children are allowed to interact with one another in classroom. Through that, it will allow them to work and communicate individually. Furthermore, they will improve behavior.

Another strategy that can be applied is providing them breaks and teaching them behavior lessons. With that it will be easy for them to identify how to behave with others. Furthermore, by playing or engaging with them in various activities will be useful in improving their behavior. So, the strategy will emphasis on social and cognitive development of children.

Providing them their favorite food or snacks on basis of their behavior. It will result in changing their behavior. However, children will behave moderately with others.

d) How did you collaborate with your school team? What support networks are available?

I collaborated with school team by engaging with them to develop plan. In that teachers and professors were included in making plan. Moreover, I suggested some ideas and strategies that how student behavior can be improved. Furthermore, I communicated with parents as well for getting support from them. It allowed me to identify student needs and implement my strategies. However, I interacted with teacher and team to decide that what they have to do. The support network that is available is family, friends, colleagues, etc. they will provide info about how in future strategies can be applied.

e) What other impacts on behavior and learning did you observe that you believe to be a direct result of the strategies implemented? e.g. student’s learning improved by.., peer behavior changes by…

There are many things that I observed in strategies. Here, I realized that children behavior is impacted by others students as well. this is because children learn what they see. Similarly, their behavior is affected when they observe how other are behaving. Besides that, teacher behavior also affect on student learning in direct way. The teacher enhances their behavior by engaging and playing games. They show way of how to behave with others. Likewise, student inherit teacher behavior. Thus, it impacts on it in positive way and result in bringing changes.
