what's it like?
if i take my eyes off the kid....he'll bite or spit on something of someone. he'll grab hair too. today, this cute little girl from the other preschool came in. she comes in to set a good example to the kids that have difficulties. but...daniel decided he doesn't like kids w/ brown hair. he wants to eat them. he wants to eat me too. this girl was just walking quietly to her seat when daniel comes up behind her and grabs her hair and tries to bite the back of her head. luckily two teachers were w/n arms length...and could stop the situation before it got out of hand. but, not w/o scaring the girl and about giving me a heart attack. and then daniel laughed hysterically about the girls tears and that's when he told me, 'i don't like that girl...i want to eat her...'
usually because he doesn't like to get up....so he bites. he doesn't like to put his shoes on....so he bites. he doesn't like to hold my hand....so he bites. he also bites and spits because he doesn't like to stay on the wood chips. he doesn't like to play nice. he doens't like the alphabet. he doesn't like the word 'what' or 'please' or 'shhh' or the letter 'l.' he doesn't like brown boys. he doesn't like fridays. he doesn't like to wake up. he doesn't like 'not chocolate' teddy grahams. he doesn't like to understand. and he doesn't like something.
he doesn't understand how to interact w/ other kids. he wants to play with them (i think). but, he only knows how to take things, throw things, bite things, spit on things. he doesn't understand half the words uttered to him....and probably half the words he utters himself. he has learned the behavior of biting and spitting when he hears/sees something he doesn't like. he get anxious and scratches and hits when something is different than he antcipated. everything is a fight. everything. from walking down the hallway, washing hands, playing with a toy, or doing a small task.
i am untrained for this position, but desparately want to help him. i love the kid. i do....but, my arms are sore...and i'm running out of ideas. you can label these problems and implement schedules to help him. but how exactly should these be implemented? i am unsure.
