The assignments will focus on applying what you learn in class by identifying a student with recurring challenging behavior at your school and conducting a behavioral assessment to develop a behavior support plan. In the best case scenario you will have a chance to implement the plan and collect data on student outcomes and plan implementation.

To begin we need to identify a student and get permission to move forward with the assignment.

Permission

Identify a student on whom to conduct a Functional Behavioral Assessment and to develop and ideally implement a Behavior Support Plan.

• A good candidate for your first FBA/BSP would be a student who:
• engages in recurring problem behavior, 
• exhibits problem behavior that is not dangerous to self or others
• is not likely to be experiencing a change of placement or move in the near future 
• has not responded to other interventions implemented by the teacher
• For your first case do not choose the most challenging and complex student in the district.
