This document outlines the Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) designed to address specific challenging behaviors exhibited by students. It includes a detailed identification of the behaviors, such as loud crying, hiding, and hitting or throwing objects, as well as the frequency and patterns of these actions. The plan identifies the primary function of these behaviors—primarily to avoid undesirable or non-preferred tasks—and the common triggers including denial of requests and transitions. Proactive strategies are emphasized, featuring 'This First → Then That' scenarios to provide students with clear expectations for task completion followed by preferred activities. Structured breaks are recommended as preventative measures before frustration escalates, offering a variety of brief and structured options for relief. The document also focuses on teaching replacement behaviors, encouraging verbalizing emotions, requesting help, and asking for breaks. It emphasizes the importance of modeling calm communication and consistently reinforcing positive interactions and appropriate emotional expressions. A checklist is provided to help implement the plan daily, including steps to take before work or transitions, during challenging moments, and during structured breaks. A crisis response plan outlines steps for intervention if the student’s behavior escalates, ensuring safety and effective support. Additionally, key success factors such as early intervention, offering choices, and acknowledging feelings are highlighted to reinforce positive outcomes in managing student behavior.
