My Students

My students are energetic, fun, sweet, loyal, and caring. They love exploring and imagining different worlds. Despite all these wonderful characteristics they often communicate through destructive and harmful behavior. My job is to teach skills to replace these destructive behaviors.

My Project

My project is to help students learn how to advocate for themselves by communicating effectively. I am a behavior analyst that works with students that have trauma and lack certain skills required in school. These skill deficits prevent learning and growth and lead to severe behaviors in classrooms.

These supplies will create a highly motivating environment where I can teach students how to communicate their needs and accept them without jeopardizing their academic careers or engaging in behaviors that are harmful to themselves or to school property.

For example, I will use these supplies to teach students how to appropriately ask for a break when a nonpreferred assignment is given. This oftentimes is very difficult for my students and instead of asking for a break destructive behavior occurs. In order to teach this skill, we need items that are highly motivating. The items listed below are highly motivating for my students.

In the beginning, we will always say yes to a student's request for a break. After the student has the skill to ask for a break, we will use these items to teach the student how to tolerate no. Highly motivating items are incredibly important for this step. Teaching students how to advocate for their needs while teaching them that it's ok to be told no is how I can help these students have success in schools. We need to let their voices be heard, but first, they need to be taught how.
