Behavioral
Concerns
& Plans*:
Leslie Staying on task, use para to reinforce waiting on instructions before we touch equipment
Amr Focus on Task, use phrase eyes on me during instruction and demonstration
Nathan Using verbal responses during class, have facilitator as questions about activities he must answer
Johnny Using avoidance and lack of eye contact as a form of escape, us phrase eyes on me during instruction
Christian Over stimulation in large groups and settings, causing a meltdown. Reduce stimulation, have him
work in the hallway.
Evaluation
Technique*
Have Roger tally the number of times Leslie touches the equipment without being told, including the times he is
corrected
Educational
Technology*
Low tech, activity picture cards, station labels and explanation of activity and key prompts. If enough time
allotted use coaches eye for video and self-model.
Collaboration* Have instructors and paras give corrections and motivation cues during session, they will be posted on the wall
Language
Acquisition*
Leslie, Amr and Nathan have these students repeat key words about each activity before we begin and after it is
over.

Leslie and Amr answer short easy questionnaires with yes and no responses with facilitators help.

Johnny answer questions about an activity by pointing to correct answers when given options, or demonstrating
correct movements of a skill.
