Student J is displaying off-task behaviors across the school day but primarily during independent seatwork in reading, math and science in her classrooms. It is believed that this is due to her not identifying when she is not on-task and then not understanding how to refocus her attention to her seatwork.
Current Levels:
Average on-task behaviors were recorded across 38% of intervals observed (range from 27% to 50%) during the week of 9/28 to 10/2. / Provide visual cues for students to refocus attention – teach student what they are first
Provide a study corner for student to use during independent seatwork.
Teach student to self monitor/rate on-task behavior
Use graphing system for monitoring engagement (work items completed) and offer incentive for increases recorded / Teacher will teach and provide
Admin will find suitable fixture and teacher will provide
School Psych will set up a monitoring system and teach student how to use it
School Psych will teach student how to use Excel graph for % of items completed / Teach and use tomorrow
Next week (10/15)

Next week (10/15) / Increase on-task behavior to being observed across 80% of intervals observed by next month (11/1) and then to across 90% of intervals observed by 12/1. / Ask if sessions to teach student visual cues, self-monitoring, and graphing system were completed.
Observation of study corner in use by student (admin will walk through classroom periodically during independent seatwork times to see if student is using. / Behavior observation data gathered by school psychologist. Student will be observed weekly and data will be graphed and shared at monthly meeting.

Three 4th grade studentsare not reading fluently and are performing well below expectation on curriculum-based measures of reading fluency. It is thought that these low reading fluency skills are the result of limited practice and repetition of known words.

When presented with math multiplication fast fact timed exercises, 9 students in 5th grade are performing Well Below Grade Level expectation with completion rates that fall below fall benchmarks (25 correct answers for fall; 75 correct responses for winter; 90 correct responses for spring). It is thought that these students are still in the acquisition stage of learning multiplication facts and, as a result, cannot reach fluency rates needed on this assessment.
Previous Levels: Scores range from 5-23 correct responses.

Dec. = 1.5 referrals per day;
Jan. = .42 referrals per day / Review expectations for prosocial behaviorsthroughout day
