Behavior Data Collection for ABC Data

By Rebekah Poe Teaching

Looking for a way to learn the function of a student's behavior? I've got you covered with this Behavior Data Collection Sheet. This can be used as part of an official functional behavior analysis or as a way to learn how your students communicate their needs.

What's Included?

  • A one-page guide to collecting ABC data (antecedent, behavior, consequence) to determine a hypothesis as to the function of a student's behavior.
  • ABC Data collection page (printable)

Why do you need this?

There is a student in your classroom who struggles to express their wants or needs in an appropriate way. You want to alleviate the problematic behavior by discovering the behavior's function so you can find an alternate replacement behavior that serves the same function in a way that is more appropriate for the classroom.

How can I help?

Reach out to me on Instagram at www.instagram.com/rebekahpoeteaching or email me at lessonsandlattes2018@gmail.com. I'd love to answer any questions you may have.

It's OK to make a mistake social story

By SEN Resource Source

This social story is designed to help children understand that making mistakes is a normal and important part of learning. It reassures children that everyone makes mistakes at school and offers strategies for overcoming and learning from them.

Ideal for parents, teachers, and caregivers, this story helps children develop resilience, build confidence, and understand that mistakes are a valuable part of their learning journey.

What is included?

As well as an 11 page social story there is also a shortened adapted book version of the story with movable pictures to attach to each page.

Why do you need this?

The point of a social story is to use a patient and reassuring tone to teach children about social situations in a way that can be easily understood. Social stories can be useful for any child who is struggling to understand a situation or concept or needs help to understand a social skill or social cue, expectations, perspectives, common responses or is troubled about an upcoming event but social stories are particularly useful for children on the autistic spectrum for whom social cues can be challenging and who often suffer anxiety if they do not know what to expect from a situation.

How and when might you use this?

· To implement a social story, you should first ensure that you have eliminated distractions; that it is just you and the child sitting together focussed on the story.

· Initially you should read the story through twice with the child but it is then vital to revisit it regularly.

· Try to find a way to incorporate the story into the child's daily schedule.

· If the story is relating to a particular inappropriate behavior, it is useful to read the story when this behavior occurs, you do not however want the story to be seen as any kind of punishment.

· Regularly praise your child and keep it a positive experience.

These books should be used over and over to reinforce the point so I would suggest either putting the pages into a display book or laminating and binding them.

What My Anger Looks Like Worksheet

By SEN Resource Source

Worksheet for children to think what they imagine their anger to look like. Young students may sketch angry monsters or dark storm clouds. Older children may draw more abstract manifestations with flames or jagged lines.

Why do you need this?

Drawing their anger allows children to visually represent their emotions, providing a concrete and tangible way to express their feelings. Creating their own visual interpretation of anger allows children to express themselves in a nonverbal manner. This can be especially beneficial for students who may struggle to articulate their emotions verbally.

How and when might you use this?

These worksheets could be used in a variety of ways:

· At the beginning of the school day or during transitions, teachers can have students complete the worksheet to check in with their emotions.

· During social-emotional lessons students can draw what their anger would look like as they learn about different emotions and strategies for managing them.

· After conflicts or disagreements among students, teachers can use the worksheet to facilitate discussions about anger and its expression.

· Small group work where the children discuss and reflect on their anger and coping strategies they use.

· During counselling sessions with children who are struggling with anger or emotional regulation.

· Teachers can integrate the worksheets into art activities to combine creative expression with emotional exploration.
