Approximate Behaviors as Cues for Addressing Learning Needs
View through CrossRef
ABSTRACT: The behavior of learners can serve as cue, so that teachers would make the necessary adjustments in handling the class. However, when this behavior becomes intolerable, some people call it misbehavior. In this light, behavior which is usually recognized as distressing can be viewed with optimism. Too much hand and body movement of children inside or outside classroom can be viewed as indicating a favorable need for action, a call for alternative process to achieve learning. This study attempted to present an alternative view of first grade learners’ behavior during reading sessions in class. For gathering of data, a checklist was used to observe one participant-learner every scheduled reading class. The first grade learners’ reading difficulties can be manifested through various behaviors. These behaviors are grouped and can be observed on four areas, such as head, arm-hand, shoulder-waist, and waist-foot. The approximate behaviors as cues for addressing learning needs have similar postures found in brain gym movements. It is recommended that other areas of learning difficulty among school learners be explored. Further, identify the learning difficulties in reading and the behaviors of school learners using the checklist constructed by the researchers.KEY WORD: Behavior; Cues for Learning Needs; Learning Difficulty; Brain Gym Movements.

Title: Approximate Behaviors as Cues for Addressing Learning Needs
Description:
ABSTRACT: The behavior of learners can serve as cue, so that teachers would make the necessary adjustments in handling the class.
However, when this behavior becomes intolerable, some people call it misbehavior.
In this light, behavior which is usually recognized as distressing can be viewed with optimism.
Too much hand and body movement of children inside or outside classroom can be viewed as indicating a favorable need for action, a call for alternative process to achieve learning.
This study attempted to present an alternative view of first grade learners’ behavior during reading sessions in class.
For gathering of data, a checklist was used to observe one participant-learner every scheduled reading class.
The first grade learners’ reading difficulties can be manifested through various behaviors.
These behaviors are grouped and can be observed on four areas, such as head, arm-hand, shoulder-waist, and waist-foot.
The approximate behaviors as cues for addressing learning needs have similar postures found in brain gym movements.
It is recommended that other areas of learning difficulty among school learners be explored.
Further, identify the learning difficulties in reading and the behaviors of school learners using the checklist constructed by the researchers.
