You may complete your behavior support plan for your chosen child in one of two formats, a narrative format or a table format. You can choose whichever format you prefer. If you choose the narrative format, follow the format used in Tim’s Sample Behavior Support Plan – Narrative Format. Download Tim’s Sample Behavior Support Plan – Narrative Format.

Reference the content in the videos and the resources provided to you in the last three weeks to inform your thinking as you develop your behavior support plan. Remember, you want to keep the function of the behavior in mind when developing preventive strategies, replacement skills and adult responses. (Note: Indicate the child’s name, not yours, on the behavior support plan you develop).
NOTE: Do not complete this assignment until you have watched Gary Huff’s mini lecture on “Developing and Implementing the Plan.” The video will provide you with the information that you need to complete the last section of a Behavior Support Plan; identifying new responses to when the challenging behavior occurs and when the replacement behavior/skills is used.
In the previous assignment, Developing a Behavior Support Plan, you created a behavior support plan for either Pablo or Sashi. For this assignment, you will develop a data collection tool to track one or more outcomes for the child for whom you developed your behavior support plan. Depending on how you developed your plan, you may want to track the child’s use of the replacement skills and/or the frequency or intensity of the challenging behavior. You are looking for an increase in the use of replacement skills and a decrease in the use of challenging behaviors.
Review the document Designing a Data Collection System to Track Outcomes.pdf Download Designing a Data Collection System to Track Outcomes.pdfand the final video in Week 8 Reading, Resources & Videosfor guidance on developing methods and tools to track outcomes. Remember you want to Keep It Simple. Choose a data collection tool or method that is easy to understand and use during a busy classroom day.
1. Provide an image of your data collection method/tool (e.g. drawing, photo, online image). This may be a chart, a table, a thermometer, a check-sheet.
2. Briefly describe what skill you are tracking with your data collection method, why you chose this method, and why you think it is feasible for a teacher to use during a busy classroom day.
