Behavior Plan

Indicating Need

  • Target Behavior: Indicating need through verbal or gestural communication as opposed to crying or shouting or pacing
  • Goal: Josh will be indicating need 70-80% of the time through verbal communication or actions (pointing, signing) by November 2009

Interventions

  • Josh's caretakers including parents, PP, QP, and school workers will reinforce a specific interaction style with Josh so that he will be able to communicate without resorting to behaviors that indicate frustration to overstimulation
  • It is highly recommended that all caretakers use the same type of communication so that there is consistency between Josh's home, community and school
  • It is highly recommended that basic tacit words be made as a standard lexicon for Josh and that these words have accompanying actions - for example:
    YES - head nod
    NO -
