This is the EVP in which students are offered structured options rather than complete freedom or rigid control. The teacher designs the choices so all options are meaningful and aligned with learning objectives.
choice-making

Behavioral Model
The SEL Competency that addresses the following:
* A sense of belonging and trust in others
* Knowing what others expect from us
* Feeling accepted and included
* Recognizing why people act the way they do* Understanding others' perspectives
Social Awareness
The purpose of screening.
Screening is used to determine the need for additional assessment and identifies students who may have behavioral difficulties.
This is the purpose of an MDR?
To determine if the students' behavior is due to their disability.
Name one cooperative learning strategy and what it is.
example: Inside/outside circle, jigsaw..
State the terminology NYSED uses instead of Emotionally Disturbed.
Emotional Disability
Purpose of an FBA and what it involves.
To determine the function of a behavior which invovles collecting data on the antecedents, behavior, and consequences (the ABCs) to identify patterns and inform intervention strategies.
What takes place at the prereferral stage?
Documentation of accommodating students' needs in the regular classroom. Documentation needs to show how a student isn't responding to the adaptations of the curriculum and behavior management strategies.
Name the 2 times a MDR will be held.
If a district is proposing to expel a student or suspend them for longer than 10 days.
When a student has 10 days out of school suspension within a school year, even if the days were not sequential.
The purpose of self-monitoring.
Increase or decrease the frequency, intensity, or duration of existing behavior. It teaches students to independently observe their behavior, record those behaviors, and evaluate.
This is an example of what type of trauma - being subjected to narratives of “other”, “less”, or “inferior” - individual, interpersonal, and systemic instances of hate, violence, and marginalization

Name 3 things that need to be documented in the prereferral stage?
* exactly what concerns are
* why it is a concern
* dates, place, times that the concern has been observed
* exactly what you have done to try to resolve the problem
* who, if anyone, helped devise the plans for strategies that have been used
Evidence that the strategies have been either successful or unsuccessful
Name the two focus questions at an MDR meeting.
Was the conduct in question caused by or does it have a direct relation to the child’s disability?
Is the conduct in question a direct result of the school system’s failure to implement the child’s IEP?
Name one benefit of CICO.
* Increased adherence to school-wide positive behavior expectations.* Reduced rates of office discipline referrals * Reduced rates of mild disruptive behaviors * increase academic engagement * increase in prosocial behaviors with peers
State the correlation between ACE scores and school performance.
High ACE score - low academic achievement
Name the 5 steps in the process of creating an FBA & BIP.
Step 1: Operationally define the problem and replacement behaviors
Step 2: Collecting information
Step 3: Identify the function of the behavior/Develop Hypotheses about why the behavior is occurring
Step 4: Design a BIP Based on the FBA
Step 5: Monitor and Adjust the BIP as Needed
Assessment procedures address whether the students exhibit the 5 subpoints of the EBD definition in IDEA. Name one of those 5 subpoints.
To be correct. Answer must include one of the following:
Inability to learn that cannot be explained by intellectual, sensory, or health factors
Inability to build & maintain satisfactory interpersonal relationships with peers & teachers
Inappropriate types of behavior or feelings under normal circumstances
A general, pervasive mood of unhappiness or depression
A tendency to develop physical symptoms or fears associated with personal school problems.
Explain the next steps after MDR determined behavior IS a result of their disability.
An FBA should be initiated if one has not already been conducted, and a BIP should be developed.
