Forms - Challenging Behavior and Interventions
Identifying, measuring, analyzing and and intervening with challenging behavior can be made easier by utilizing the hyperlinked forms on this page. Because they are non proprietary forms and designed in Microsoft Word they can be customized to address each student's needs.
Measuring Behavior - It's critical to measure a student's identified challenging behavior to objectively determine its strength (e.g., frequency, duration, etc.) before interventions to provide baseline data before interventions, select possible interventions and assess the effectiveness of selected interventions. The following forms can assist in this process:
Selecting a method and form to measure behavior
Form to Measure Challenging Behavior
Measuring Challenging and Pro Social Replacement Behavior - Form 1
Measuring Challenging and Pro Social Replacement Behavior - Form 2
Forms to Assist in Analyzing the Causes of Challenging Behavior - When challenging behavior occurs identifying the corresponding causes is a critical step prior to developing and implementing interventions that can effectively prevent and address that challenging behavior. The following forms can assist in this process:
Intervention Forms - Designing, selecting, monitoring and providing feedback on the effectiveness of interventions are critical components to prevent and address challenging behavior. The following forms can assist in this process:
Chart for Selecting Pro Social Replacement Behavior
Chart for Developing Interventions to Address Skills Deficits
Chart for Developing Interventions to Address Performance Deficits
Daily Chart for Monitoring Pro Social Behavior
Daily Chart for Monitoring Challenging Behavior
Weekly Monitoring Chart for Monitoring Challenging Behavior
Intervention Implementation and Feedback Form
Form to Assess Effectiveness of Interventions and Subsequent Actions
Classroom Rules - Classroom management is a research-based strategy to prevent and address challenging behavior in a classroom. Providing ongoing monitoring and feedback is an effective means of maintaining and/or increasing a desired behavior. The following forms can assist teachers in monitoring and providing feedback on classroom rules:
Daily Chart for Monitoring Classroom Rules
Weekly Chart for Monitoring Classroom Rules
Parental Note of Student Following Classroom Rules
On-Task and Off-Task Observation Forms - Engaged student learning increases academic achievement and decreases challenging behavior. When a student is on task they are engaged in teacher and school selected activities. The children are doing what is expected of them. On the other hand, if a student is off task, by definition he/she is involved in inappropriate and/or challenging behavior. The following forms can assist in this process:
