Behavior Interventions for Students with Special Needs Grades 3-6
| This online course for teachers is specifically designed for educators in grades 3-6 who want to learn how to incorporate a variety of behavior interventions for students with special needs. Teachers begin with an introduction to positive behavior interventions and supports and learn how this three-tiered model can be used to prevent challenging behaviors. From there, teachers are provided with thorough background information on the principles of applied behavior analysis. Specific strategies are shared for recording students’ behavior, conducting a functional behavior assessment to understand the function of the behavior, and changing behavior using positive reinforcement. Information is shared on designing effective behavior goals and numerous evidence-based intervention strategies are presented. Teachers will learn how to develop an effective behavior intervention plan with a focus on self-management strategies to sustain positive behaviors even after the intervention has ended. Finally, teachers will learn about bullying and exclusionary discipline — two common issues that disproportionately impact students with disabilities — and will learn how to incorporate formal and informal restorative practices to prevent these issues.
