\"Screen<\/a><\/p>\n

Behaviors are a way that children communicate. Think about the newborn. The baby cries to get its needs met as the listener tries to determine the cause of distress.<\/p>\n

We need to be the same kind of detectives when we see the older child demonstrate a behavior. We need to determine the cause of the distress and what the child may be telling us with this behavior.<\/p>\n

One way that we can support positive behavior supports is to create visuals to assist the student in understanding and structuring the environment. This packet has a number of visual supports that may assist you in creating communication that is visual rather than simply verbal. Using visual communication is often a stronger system as visuals are more concrete and are able to refer back to contrasted to oral language which once you say it is gone.<\/p>\n

I have created a behavior bundle that will give you a good head start in many of the visuals that you may need to support your students.<\/p>\n

The morning checklist can then also be used as a data collection sheet.
