Did you receive training regarding children with Emotional Disturbance? How was it helpful or not? Does your school have an "Emergency Team" for a student with Emotional Disabilities?
We have not received training in Emotional Disturbance at our school. Much of the protocols created for classroom problems were done by the SPED and Nurse in the classroom. They usually inform us of what to do for a specific student. Our school is really small and much of the staff is responsible for multiple tasks, but there is no team assigned for emotional behavior. Much of the knowledge of how to handle students is given to is in written form and never demonstrated. I teach at an alternative school and we do make try to notice behavior/attitude changes in students and attempt to remedy it before it becomes a problem. We usually have a conference, contact the parents, or talk to a students friends That is about all we are asked to do.
