Inclusion of Children with Emotional Disorders in Lesson Planning by Educators
Inclusion of Children with Emotional Disorders in Lesson Planning by Educators

Summary/Abstract: All children are entitled to equal conditions for a normal life, regardless of their health issues or disorders. Therefore, we consider that educators should give attention to children with emotional disorders while performing their lesson planning, including the organisation and implementation of activities indoors and outdoors relevant to their overall development. The treatment of children with emotional disorders is an important process and currently their situation is not satisfactory; therefore, educators should work harder to improve their conditions, getting to know more about the sensitive situation of these children. The study highlights the work performed by educators in preschool institutions in cooperation with parents to offer a better development for children with emotional disorders in all the areas. The research is based on the data collected in preschool institutions in Prishtina through questionnaires with educators and parents of children with emotional disorders and with no disorder, and interviews conducted with the directors of preschool institutions. From the data analysis, it results that currently, the treatment of children with emotional disorders is not at the required level and much work needs to be done. We come to the conclusion that directors should require more training to be organised for educators in order to improve the conditions of children with emotional disorders, and also raise the awareness of educators so that they may help children to overcome their difficulties, by including activities in their lesson planning that are relevant for children with emotional disorder.
