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?

Perfect for students with autism and other developmental needs, this resource uses the principles of errorless learning to build confidence and essential skills in a structured, supportive environment.

What’s Included:

• Colorful pumpkin task cards

• Two types of worksheets:

  • Table format: Pumpkins are placed in clearly defined boxes, helping students match colors and shapes in an organized manner.
  • Randomly placed pumpkins: A more flexible layout where students can freely attach pumpkins, reinforcing the idea that there are no wrong answers.

• Both worksheets include optional gray dots to guide pumpkin placement with Velcro.

• No Wrong Answers: Designed with errorless learning in mind, this activity allows students to practice matching and attaching pumpkins without the pressure of making mistakes. Every response is correct, boosting their confidence and enthusiasm for learning.

How to Use and Prepare:

1. Print and Laminate the colorful pumpkin task cards and corresponding worksheets with pumpkin outlines for durability.
2. Add Velcro: Attach Velcro dots to the back of the colorful pumpkins and on the worksheet. For worksheets with gray dots, place the Velcro over these dots to guide students on where to attach the pumpkins.
3. Organize: Set up the worksheets in a file folder and store the detachable pumpkins in a clear pouch or pocket for easy access and storage.
4. Use: Introduce the activity by guiding students to detach and reattach the pumpkins, explaining that there is no wrong way to complete the task. Whether used for independent work or as part of a group activity, this file folder game promotes success and engagement.

Some students on my caseload are very quiet; either because they are shy, afraid, or simply don’t know what to share. Oftentimes, it can be difficult for them to open up so I created a worksheet that allows them to decide what they feel comfortable talking about. 

Because the worksheet can also serve as a coloring page, most students tend to feel comfortable in deciding their topic of conversation. Students simply color in the heart with the subject they’d like to address. 

This worksheet works well for 1:1 counseling sessions or for teachers who notice a student having a hard time. Simply pull them to the side, or place the worksheet on their desk and have them bring it to you when they are ready.
