    Observing children's behavior is important for several reasons: to understand development, assess learning styles, identify strengths and weaknesses, monitor progress, and detect potential problems. It also helps promote positive behavior. Specifically, the passage describes an observation of a kindergarten student, Joshua, who yelled and punched his teacher despite it being nap time because he wanted to continue playing. Such behaviors typically occur when a caregiver refuses to give in to a child's wants. It is important to understand why children behave this way by considering their perspective and what they are thinking.

    Guiding Children's Behavior and Moral Development

    Observing Behavior in Child Guidance TASK: Observation report/narrative Conduct observation of


    children focusing on their behavior. It may be actual or video from the websites. Explain/ narrate the
    situation. Use the guide questions for observation.

    1. What are the reasons for observing Children’s behavior


    Observing children's behavior is an essential tool used by parents, teachers, caregivers, and
    developmental specialists to gain insight into a child's development, learning style, and social and
    emotional well-being. Some of the reasons for observing children's behavior include:
    1. To understand a child's development: Observing children's behavior can help parents and caregivers
    identify the areas in which a child is developing well and the areas where they may need additional
    support.
    2. To assess learning styles: Observing a child's behavior can help teachers and parents identify a
    child's learning style and tailor their teaching approach to match that child's unique needs.
    3. To identify strengths and weaknesses: Observing a child's behavior can help parents and caregivers
    identify the child's strengths and weaknesses and develop strategies to help the child reach their full
    potential.
    4. To monitor progress: Observing children's behavior over time can help parents and caregivers track
    the child's progress and identify areas where they may need additional support or intervention.
    5. To detect potential problems: Observing children's behavior can help parents and caregivers identify
    potential problems early on, such as developmental delays, learning difficulties, or behavioral issues.
    6. To promote positive behavior: Observing children's behavior can help parents and caregivers
    reinforce positive behavior and address any negative behaviors before they become problematic.
    Overall, observing children's behavior is a valuable tool for understanding and supporting a child's
    development, learning, and emotional well-being.

    2. Guide questions:
    a. Who was involved in the behavior?
    Joshua the kindergarten student
    b. What happened?
    Despite the fact that it was nap time, he wanted to play more, so he yelled and punched her teacher.
    c. When did the behavior occur?
    When the teacher announces that it is time for a sleep but Joshua wants to continue playing, he throws
    temper tantrums.
    d. Where does the behavior typically take place?
    When a child wants to pursue their wants but the person taking care of them or the caregiver refuses to
    give them what they want
    e. Why does the child behave this way?
    Children behave the way they behave because they think the way they think. Before parents or caregiver
    can effectively intervene to stop a negative behavior it is important to understand what the child is
    believing and why.
