SPD-540 Proposal for Behavior Change Plan

Benchmark Assignment and Rubric
Assessment Instructions:

In this assignment, you will draft a proposal for an intervention plan based on the Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) data provided below:

 

Howard Scenario

Age: 11

Grade: 6th

Howard is showing significant signs of reading and math difficulty and has been diagnosed with ADHD. Ms. Anderson—a first-year teacher—has referred him to the office six times in four months for “insubordination.” When the bell rings, Ms. Anderson instructs the class to begin working on the math problems on the whiteboard. Instead, Howard begins to talk loudly about the rims on his dad’s car. Another student, Davis, comments, “Aw, your daddy has a hooptie and those rims are wack.” Howard responds, “Well, at least we have a car. I saw you waiting for the bus.” Other students begin to laugh, and Davis tells Howard to shut up. At this time Ms. Anderson intervenes, telling the students to quiet down. She reprimands Howard and Davis, tells them to go sit down, and reminds them of their assignment. She then returns to her desk. Howard and Davis continue to discuss their parents’ cars.

After a moment, Ms. Anderson again reprimands them for talking. Howard then sharpens his pencil, gets a new piece of paper, and walks back to his seat using the longest route possible. After about fifteen minutes, the students appear to have finished their math problems and Ms. Anderson begins class. After class, Ms. Anderson looks at Howard’s paper and realizes that he only completed a few questions.

Howard has several behaviors that Ms. Anderson feels are contributing to his incomplete work, but she is most concerned about him starting his assignments when told to do so. The next week, Ms. Anderson collects event data on Howard’s appropriate and inappropriate comments and latency data on how long it takes him to begin his work each day.

In 750-1,000-words, create an intervention plan that includes the following:

Specific collaborative steps to be implemented that will change the behavior and create a safe, inclusive, culturally responsive learning environment that engages the student in meaningful learning activities and social interactions;
Evidence-based motivational and instructional interventions to teach the student how to adapt to different environments;
Safety interventions addressing students in crisis; and
Engaging rewards and reinforcements that encourage quality learning and performance, along with guiding feedback.

Cite a minimum of three scholarly references to support your intervention plan.

Prepare this assignment according to the APA guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Mechanics of Writing (includes spelling, punctuation, grammar, language use)

 

5

No submission.

Surface errors are pervasive enough that they impede communication of meaning.Inappropriate word choice and/or sentence construction are used.

Frequent and repetitive mechanical errors distract the reader. Inconsistencies in language choice (register) and/or word choice are present. Sentence structure is correct but not varied.

Prose is largely free of mechanical errors, although a few may be present. The writer uses a variety of effective sentence structures and figures of speech.

Writer is clearly in command of standard, written, academic English.
