The Two Big Questions
What the problem behavior is?
The problem behavior is Bruce’s low performance in is studies. The result of his performance I believe is primary reason he acts out physically toward his classmates. I might also classify the name calling by his classmates as a problem behavior but for this instance, I will stick with his poor performance in academics as the problem behavior.
What are the procedures you will follow to address the problem?
First, I would address the issue of Bruce’s classmates calling him names by using punishment to discourage the behavior I want to eliminate.
Would you handle this any differently?
