My Project

My students will increase their understand and ability to following classroom rules and routines.

Tangible reinforcers are physical rewards that are given after a behavior to increase the likelihood that the behavior will be repeated.

The term "tangible" implies that the reward is visible and touchable.

Social reinforcement includes behavior-specific praise, high fives, and tickles. Edible reinforcement includes candy, cookies, and crackers.

Activity reinforcers include going outside, and playing games

Natural reinforcers include things that would normally occur as a result of the child's behavior

Tangible reinforcers should be used with caution. For example, parents may have reasons to object to edibles as reinforcement, and the requested toys can make other students envious.

Some ways to manage tangibles include preference assessments gauge an individual's interest level in various activities and objects and transition warnings that notify the student throughout the break how much time they have left with the activity.
