Undesirable Behavior Targeted

The undesirable behavior that will be targeted is calling out in the classroom. Students will call
out in class to participate in answering questions. Being disruptive interferes with the teachers
ability to instruct the class, students will lose focus causing a decrease in grades, limiting the
teachers ability, and amount of time is wasted redirecting the student behavior. Behaviors lead
to tension between the students, and causing the teacher to lose control of the class.
Desired Behavior Targeted:
During instruction periods, the students will raise their hands 4 of 5 times to participate
appropriately for 3 of 4 consecutive sessions in 45 minute intervals.
Types of positive reinforcements-Reinforced-when & how?
1. Immediate R + tokens: The sticker program allows the students to receive a sticker when
the targeted behavior is performed. The sicker will be placed on their charts each time a
student raises their hands to participate, and is appropriate. The sticker must be given
immediately after the behavior is performed and this will help enhance control in the
classroom.
2. Delayed R+: If the targeted behavior is not performed the teacher will ignore the behavior
and continue teaching the class.
3. Overall R+: When the goal is met the class will receive their sticker chart and a certificate
for improvement.
4. If the undesirable behavior is observed the teacher will ignore the behavior. If the
positive behavior is demonstrated the teacher will place a sticker on the chart that will be
placed on her desk without interrupting the class.
