Continuing on in our FBA-BIP mini-series, we're at Step 11. This week, we’re diving into the consequence side of behavior plans—what to do after students engage in either the challenging behavior or the replacement behavior. It’s not just about preventing problem behavior… it’s about teaching, reinforcing, and responding with consistency and care.
🔑 Key Takeaways
🧠 Reinforce replacement behaviors immediately and consistently—across staff, settings, and time
🎯 Match the function with the reinforcement (e.g., escape behavior = give a break)
💬 Avoid reinforcing the problem behavior, even accidentally (yep, we’ve all done it!)
🧍♀️ Use neutral responses when addressing challenging behavior—no power struggles, just calm presence
🛠️ Make the plan simple, visible, and actionable for all team members
📉 Use data to drive decisions, not just feelings or assumptions
