Positive Behavioral Support Plan Case Study #1 Describe one of the problem behaviors identified in Brendan's Behavior support plan. One of the problem behaviors identified in Brendan's Behavior Support Plan is that when Brendan is tired and/or unable to access what he wants, he is likely to tantrum (prolonged whining, crying, and screaming), which will sometimes increase to physical aggression (banging himself onto an adult, head thrusting, holding his brother down, taking objects, or hitting). When this happens, someone intervenes by trying to cajole him with hugs or food or by telling him “Show me” or saying, “What do you want”. This results in adults giving him help, food, or attention. Identify one skill that should be taught to Brendan. One skill that should be taught to Brendan is to appropriately request attention from parents by saying, "Come here please" and "Play with me." To express his needs and emotions through appropriate language. He can be taught to use phrases like "I feel frustrated" or "I need help" to communicate his feelings and needs instead of engaging in problem behaviors Identify and describe one tool or strategy to teach this skill. One skill that could be taught to Brendan is to appropriately request attention from his parents. A social story is a visual tool that presents a specific social situation and teaches an appropriate response. The story could show Brendan playing alone and feeling sad or frustrated because he wants to play with his parents. The story could then show Brendan using his words to request attention from his parents, saying "Come here please" or "Play with me." Provide opportunities for him to practice the skill in real-life situations. Describe what steps you will take when the problem behavior occurs. When Brendan struggles to take turns and share with his brother during playtime, it is important to remain calm and composed. Clear and concise instructions should be given to Brendan, emphasizing the importance of playing nicely with his brother. Positive reinforcement, such as praise, should be given when Brendan successfully takes

turns and shares. If Brendan refuses to follow the instructions, gentle reminders can be provided. If the problem behavior continues, redirecting Brendan's attention to a different activity may help. Consequences, such as losing a privilege, a time-out, or a break from playtime, may be necessary if the problem behavior persists. If the problem behavior continues, it may be necessary to review and adjust Brendan's behavior support plan with the help of a behavior specialist or other professional.
