3. Review our team; subsections

4. Referral Process
Collaborate with District EC Program Directors (gate-keepers of the referral)
REQUIREMENTS:
All students must have FBA and BIP prior to referral
Offer monthly Help Sessions (for teachers with need of assistance in strategies or development of FBA and BIP)
Review our process; show our flowchart; and referral packet
Talk about help sessions briefly; collaboration with PBIS and AU team “weed out” ----determine students that just need classroom managed based strategies; related services; etc

5. PRC-29 Support Services Direct Services Internal Help Sessions/PLTs
Baseline Observations
Continuous Support for Teachers and Student
Continuous Observations/Consults
Social Skills Sessions
Meetings
Internal Help Sessions/PLTs
Onsite/District wide Trainings

6. Review existing FBA/BIP and behavior goal
Progress Monitoring
Review existing FBA/BIP and behavior goal
Once we accept a student on our caseload this is our 1st steps: Review the FBA and BIP to determine methods/strategies selected to teach the new skill and the problem behavior
*We recently revamped our forms to make them more “user friendly” to help teachers walk through the process of the FBA and BIP
Progress monitoring is a huge part of our new forms- required

7. Data Collection Tools
Some of our frequent tools: CICO more long term individualized; DBR; scatterplots; intervals, TOAD/frequency
Link to website
Our goal is to make the use of interventions easy and simple for the teachers----because what we know---the less invasive the tool the more likely they will use it…we understand the school day is full of requirements…and the need to actually TEACh….all of our forms can also be utilized by TA’s…
We encourage them to select a minute period and collect data during this period
At least 3x per week to effectively monitor the use of interventions

9. Summarizing Data with EXCEL

10. Summarizing Data Using Excel
WHY?
Provides a visual for teachers, parents, students and other staff
Aides in summarizing goals/monitoring progress (baseline vs. interventions)
Simple & Concrete
Monitors increase or decrease
Our goal is to monitor the progress of students once interventions are in place—ideally we desire for the teachers to take this responsibility (however, this is not always the norm)
Using excel makes it easy for use to clearly depict a picture of a students progress in the classroom
Compare pre-referral ; pre-interventions to POST (baseline and interventions being used)
Easier to reach compliance with teachers and administrators ---because the data PROVES

12. BAR LINE CIRCLE Graph Type When to Use: Used to “tell a story”
Frequency counts of observed behaviors
Used to “tell a story”
compares levels of specific behaviors or responses
compares possible setting events or antecedents
Not ideal for depicting changes over time
LINE
Trials
Used to view changes in behavior over time or across various conditions
Targets trends for interventions
Compares levels for each specific date, session, intervention
Ideal to monitor intervention efforts
CIRCLE
Intervals
Used to show how a part of something relates to the whole
Shows percentages effectively
Add forms here data and where they match

14. GRAPHS
Student with a daily reinforcement sheet; summary of data per month
Marked trends
Drives IEP goals; progress monitoring
Identified there are 2 areas of primary concern: completed all work; kept body in check
Bar graphs---helps to easily view multiple behaviors

15. GRAPHS
Initial phases----would eventually move to line graph; with two weeks it is easier to display the percentage of time toward weekly goals

16. GRAPHS Interval Data summarized during 15 min observational period
Circle graph helps to
Summarized data from CICO

17. GRAPHS
Exit student
Student considered for EXIT of PRC-29

18. GRAPHS
We use graphs to preview discipline…especially for our students considered for referrals to alternative placement or to return to home schools
*If we are not successful with having teachers collect data we result to using Powerschool data to help determine if interventions are being used
