Topic: Relationship with self
Resource:
Reading disability is a major problem in the present age. It can arise on account of lower
concentration or any kind of mental disability that does not allow the child to read properly.

wants to avoid the scenario and in return wants to do other work or want to escape into the toilet.
(Beck & Haigh, 2014). A chore chart can be prepared for the student that will include making
her own bed, dressing up on their own, brushing teeth and after eating she will take her own
breakfast plate to sink. Such an activity would keep him engaged and realize his own worth. He
would feel himself to be important and an essential part of the social order. Once he will grow
more confident he would gain his self-esteem and he would try to do every chore perfectly. On
completing the chores, he should be awarded with some kind of reward that will him emerge as a
more confident individual. Once the child would start doing things on his own his self-esteem
will be preserved and it would have an overall good impact on his other actions.
Rationale
This resource makes use of the behavior theory. It focuses on the behavior of an
individual and how the ideal traits of behavior can be taught to the child by bringing about
changes in his activity. (Nisbett, 2017). Self efficacy is taught through this method and it
emboldens one with the courage that they would be able to perform a task. The success of an
individual in a particular task will provide him with a lot of confidence and this will be reflected
