    The key takeaways are that John struggles with motivation and rushing through his work without completing it to the best of his ability. An FBA was conducted which identified his main behaviors and some hypothesized reasons for them. A PBS plan was developed to address these issues.

    John's main problematic behavior is a lack of motivation and rushing through his work. He is not completing his work to the best of his ability.

    It is hypothesized that John rushes through his work so he can read quietly at his desk, escaping the world around him. He also refuses to correct his mistakes.

    Student Profile

    Name: John Smith School: Middle School Grade: 7

    Some words that describe me are:


     Happy
     Hard worker when motivated
     Kind

    Some things I am interested in are:


     Math
     Science
     Love walking the track at lunch
     Loves to read

    The best ways for me to show what I know:


     Hands on or orally. I love to work with my hands and trying to figure things out. I
    am not very good at writing. I am very quiet so I might need to do my oral projects
    in private.
    Some things that I need you know about me are:
     At times I can get overwhelmed, especially if there is a lot of commotion, loud
    noises or too much information. I sometimes need assignments or concepts
    broken up into smaller pieces or repeated.
    Some things that I want to get better at this year are:
     Writing. I am not very good at writing stories. I struggle with getting my ideas
    down and organized. I tend to rush through my stories so I can be finished. I will
    need some help with this.

    Functional Behavioural Assessment Plan

    Imagine taken from http://www.educateautism.com/functional-behaviour-assessment.html

    John’s main problematic behaviour is lack of motivation and rushing


    through his work. He is not completing his work to the best of his
    Problematic Behaviour ability.

    The teacher completed an ABC chart observing the student at


    different times during various activities. She noticed the following
    behaviours;
     answers did not make any sense
    Data collection and  written work was not organized with sloppy handwriting
    analyzed  often was the first one to turn work in (test, assignments,
    etc.)
     frequent incorrect answers
     when work was completed, he would sit and read

    Questions

    Possible uses for the student profile


    I think there are many uses for student profiles. As a case manager, I made up student profiles, (at a
    glance) and distributed them to their classroom teachers. This gave the teachers an overview of the
    file they may not have had time to read.
    The classroom teachers could also leave this profile for a TOC that may be in the classroom. It
    would be a resource for any other staff member to read if they are working with that student. It gives
    a great overview of student strengths, interests, and goals.
    All of the grade 6 teachers fill in a similar student profile of the students who will be entering middle
    school. As a classroom teacher or LST, these profiles allowing us to provide the needed programs to
    in order for the student to succeed.

    How is this PBS going to be communicated to various members of the school-based team?
    How will its effectiveness be assessed? What is the mechanism for changing it?

    Communication – I would join in a SBT meeting to discuss any plans for the student. At our school,
    we have SBT meetings every other Monday where teachers can sign up with a concern or follow up.
    Assessment - data should be collected by the classroom teacher (or all who teaches the child). Data
    should be easy to collect such as using a checklist. This data should be periodically reviewed so that
    any changes may be made.
    Effectiveness – if the teacher sees the targeted behaviour change in a positive way or if the student is
    more engaged and willing to work, then the plan is working and is effective.
    Changing the plan – if the strategies are no longer working or the behaviour becomes more frequent
    then it is important to take this concern back to the SBT. There, you can show the data you have
    collected and the SBT can discuss further testing or strategies.

    Last year I was a part of the student-based team where we discussed concerns and developed
    strategies. I have not seen a functional behavioural assessment, so I am only going with what I have
    read during the course.

    How does the FBA/PBS connect in a meaningful way to other aspects of the student’s life?

    In most cases the behaviours you may see in class are also seen by others such as parents and
    through their social life (friends) By explicitly teaching students a variety of coping strategies or
    conflict resolution strategies, these may carry over into other parts of the student’s life.

    Does your district have a safety plan for individual students as part of the positive behaviour
    support plan?

    I am not sure if our district has a safety plan for individual students. I know there are plans in place
    with students who are on behavioural contracts such as being sent home or ISS if a certain number
    of tries have been reached (i.e. three strikes). I have not seen or participated in any FBA or PB
    support plans therefore I am unaware of any safety measures.
