ENAttention deficit and hyperactivity disorders are not rare in educational practice. Such disorders manifest themselves in the form of inability to concentrate and hyperactivity in addition to undesirable behavior in particular situations such as disobedience, often anger bursts, provoking conflict situations, aggressiveness. Behavior control i.e. regulation of undesirable behavior through application of pedagogical strategies became of current interests. By applying selected development strategies (positive relations between the teacher and the child, activity orientation towards maintenance of positive behavior, encouragements, active talks, development of social skills etc.), a teacher can encourage or mitigate aspects of undesirable behavior in children. To describe the subject of the research, the below questions have been framed: What are the most common difficulties in the development process involving pre-school children with attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder? What undesirable behavior control measures teachers usually apply in the development process? What do the teachers think of possible assistance measures in developing children with attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder? Research focus – undesirable behavior control tools in pre-school children with attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder. The research aim – to reveal undesirable behavior control tools in pre-school children with attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder. The following methods were applied in the study: literature review, interviewing. The research revealed that pre-school teachers have to work with pre-school children with attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder and behavior problems, which must be often dealt with individually.Having analyzed the methods of assistance usually practiced by teachers, it became evident that support from such professionals as a psychologist, special pedagogue is very important for teachers and parents in addition to education and consulting of other persons involved in the development process. The research results suggest that teachers very often rely on positive tools of undesirable behavior control such as compliments, incentives, individual talks, discussions of rules. Nevertheless, there are situations, when they do not know what they should do in particular situations.
