Classroom environment for children with disability
A class member may have a behavior problem for many reasons. Often, behavior problems are an effort to express a need or fear, or they are an attempt to avoid something unpleasant, we just have to know and learn the process or reasons of the childs behavior. Behavior problems may consist of an individual becoming aggressive, threatening, listless, overactive, or withdrawn or sometimes they tend to be untisocial.
