Educational Studies 232 - Behavior Problems/Preschool

'What role does the preschool classroom play in supporting social and emotional readiness for elementary school, particularly for those children entering preschool with behavior challenges? Early difficulties in peer relationships and with emotional and behavioral self-regulation interfere with learning and can set the stage for additional problems later in development. This course will provide an overview of child development as a foundation for studying behavior problems that present during the preschool years. The course will also focus on characteristics of early childhood classrooms and experiences that promote more adaptive functioning in classroom settings.'
