September 23, 2016 by Terri Henrizi Leave a Comment

Date/Time
Date(s) - 09/23/2016
9:00 am - 3:00 pm

Location
Kent ISD Education Service Center


Are challenging behaviors impacting your child’s ability to learn? Individualizing positive behavior supports (PBS) for a child can be a very effective tool to improve a child’s quality of life, at home and at school. This workshop will explore the process of PBS.

  • Understanding why a child is engaging in problem behavior
  • Implement interventions
  • Preventing problems
  • Replacing behavior
  • Managing consequences
  • And then look deeper at the components of an adequate Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA), linking the behavior support plan to the FBA, and implementing assessments and interventions.
