24. Universal Level Prevention Anticipating problem behavior Know what they are going to do when and where If we can predict it, we can prevent it! “Without school-wide prevention, we cannot reliably identify targeted-level students.”

25. Steps for Pre-correction 1.Identify the context 2. Pinpoint predictable problem behavior 3. Specify expected behavior 4.Change the context – make it less likely to get the behavior you don’t want & more likely to get the behavior you want.

26. Pre-correction 5. Conduct behavior rehearsals (i.e. practice) 6. Provide strong reinforcement for expected behavior 7. Prompt expected behavior 8. Monitor the process and effect Remember you are competing against conditioned behavior!

27. Good Behavior Support Plans Use a Competing Behavior Pathway to build an intervention plan that makes existing problem behavior pathway: Irrelevant: Using prevention Inefficient: Teaching new skills, providing alternatives, increasing reinforcement of positive behaviors Ineffective: Decreasing reinforcement of problem behaviors Secondary/Supplemental

28. Designing a Behavior Support Plan Preventive Strategies aka: Make the problem behavior irrelevant What modifications to the environment (academic, social, physical) may PREVENT the problem behavior? What adjustments will make the problem behavior unnecessary?

29. Designing a Behavior Support Plan Teaching Strategies aka: Make the problem behavior inefficient What skills can be taught to the student that: 1)will meet the same need, or function, as the problem behavior, AND 2)will improve the student’s ability to cope and adjust to the circumstances?

30. Designing a Behavior Support Plan Function/Consequence Strategies aka : Make the problem behavior ineffective Make sure the child gets what they want or avoids what they want to avoid ONLY when the desired/replacement behavior is displayed. Make sure they do not get what they want or successfully avoid whatever it is when they engage in the problem behavior.

31. When it is time to transition to a different activity or unexpected changes occur in the schedule, third grader Ben throws his materials or knocks over his chair, disrupting and delaying the entire class. Ben has had to miss recess for this behavior. He has to pick up his materials which delays his participation and sometimes delays the class. He has been sent to the office. The teacher has spoken to Ben’s parents. targeted Behavior

32. Sample Strategies Provide a written or picture schedule and refer to it throughout the day. Prepare Ben for changes, by noting them on the schedule. Teach him to ask for clarification or assistance regarding changes. Reward him for smooth transitions. If materials are thrown, have him pick up his materials after he finishes the next activity.
