| Abstract | ||||
| It is said that teaching is probably the noblest profession in the world. Teachers are the receptacles of information who ensure that knowledge will be passed from one generation to another. Teachers are mold the future generation to be the leaders and innovators of tomorrow. However, there is more to being a teacher. Aside from their initial task of enriching the minds of young people, teachers also need to teach the student moral behavior and ethical standards. For this paper observed the practices being enforced by three teachers from a Northside elementary school on how they reduce the aggressive behavior of their students. The students are pre-school to grade two students who are aged five to eight years old. The data was collected through prepared and random interviews and observation of the classroom proceedings. Analysis of the data is qualitative depending on the answers of the teachers to the interview questions and what the research has observed. The findings showed that the most senior teacher had the best and most varied techniques in handling any aggressive behavior of the students. Student aggression can range from shouting, hurting others, defiance, throwing tantrums, and breaking things. Four themes were created. First, age of the students can help the teachers devise ways on how to prevent aggression. In this case, younger children are more susceptible to control. Second, early prevention is better than reduction. Third, teachers should be observant. Finally, students tend to display aggressive behavior if they are placed in an unfamiliar environment. | ||||
