Autism Classroom Resources Podcast: A Podcast for Special Educators

213. The Impact of Students’ Behavior: What Every Paraprofessional (And Professional) Needs to Know (From SEA)


Listen Later

Behavior is not a one-way street. There is an interconnectedness between student behavior and teacher behavior, which we can sometimes miss. It is so important that we recognize the impact special education teachers and special education paraprofessionals have on student behaviors to avoid any unintentional reinforcement of challenging behaviors.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the research behind how children’s behavior drives the behavior of adults without the adults realizing it. I share why understanding that behavior has reciprocal impacts is so important, how to ensure we aren’t fading out the demands on a student based on their behavior, and the importance of observing other adults in the classroom.

02:40 - The research behind how student behavior impacts teacher behavior in an educational setting

05:52 - Why being aware that behavior has reciprocal impacts within the classroom helps prevent fading out demands without a plan in place

07:15 - How being aware of the reciprocal behavior cycle can help us stop it

08:04 - Why we must create a team culture where everyone can watch each other’s backs because everyone’s behavior impacts others
