1. Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports Tertiary Interventions

2. Tertiary Systems ~80% of Students ~15% ~5%

3. Who are Red Zone Kids? Students Tertiary Interventions

4. Tertiary Systems More intensive supports In-depth & continuous assessment (FBA) Variety of sources & perspectives Formal plans where necessary (IEP & BIP)

5. Tertiary interventions are most effective when… There is a well-functioning school-wide PBIS system in place Individualized support is conducted in a comprehensive and collaborative manner People who know the student work together with the building PBIS team The goal of tertiary interventions are to diminish problem behavior and increase the student’s adaptive skills and opportunities for enhanced quality of life

6. How are Tertiary Interventions Implemented? Identify students Identify goals of intervention Gather relevant information (assessment) Generate a behavior support plan Implement and monitor outcomes

7. Research has demonstrated the effectiveness of PBIS in addressing the challenges of behaviors that are dangerous, highly disruptive, and impede learning.

8. Responding to Serious Misbehavior

9. The Cycle of Acting Out Behavior Understand the cycle Recognize the signs Know how to respond during each phase

11. Behavior Intervention Plan What is a BIP? When & why do a BIP? Examples How to do a BIP Practice

12. What is a BIP? A plan to: Teach desired behavior Reduce or eliminate problem behavior

13. When & Why do a BIP? A student with or without disabilities displays behavior that interferes with his/her learning or that of others A student’s behavior results in a change of placement

14. How to do a BIP First do a FBA (Functional Behavior Assessment) A FBA must include an ABC BIP, FBA, ABC! Sounds Like ALPHABET Soup to me!

15. 4 Parts to a BIP Plan –Describe & diagnose the problem (FBA) –Determine a solution Prevention: Environment Instruction: Monitor & adjust Crisis Plan

16. FBA = Functional Behavior Assessment Process to help determine motivation of the student’s behavior Gather information –Review records –Interviews –Observations - ABC

17. What is an ABC? A method of observing behavior noting: When - before = Antecedent What is the problem = Behavior Why - after = Consequence This helps us determine the function of the behavior

18. What is Behavior? Communication through action Learned Serves 3 functions –Get something –Avoid something –Automatic Continues because certain outcomes are likely

19. BIG IDEA It takes time and support to change behaviors Consistency for 30, 90, … days depending on the nature of the behavior and the supports –Alcoholics Anonymous –Weight Watchers

20. Crisis Plan The crisis plan is what will be done if the behavior presents a safety concern and not what we do when the student is not compliant. The plan needs to describe what will be done and who will implement. –Crisis Prevention Team –School Intervention Team

21. Why BIPs don’t work 1.No plan or the plan is so general that it is meaningless 2.Plan not based on the function of the behavior – no data 3.The plan is not followed accurately by all involved at all times 4.No data on effectiveness collected 5.No common understanding of “success”
