All Ours Inclusion Symposium 26

DESCRIPTION:
This session introduces Tier 1 literacy routines that help students stay regulated and ready to learn. Participants will explore how reading and writing challenges can lead to frustration or avoidance and will learn practical ways to respond when behaviors stem from literacy difficulty. Educators will leave with a few clear routines and in the moment strategies they can use right away to support student engagement during reading and writing.

OBJECTIVES:
1. Identify how reading and writing challenges can lead to avoidance or other behaviors.
2. Describe how simple literacy routines can support self regulation and reduce frustration.
3. Notice behavior linked to literacy challenges and respond effectively.

DESCRIPTION:
Behavior Technicians (BTs) often play a powerful role in providing real-time, in-the-moment coaching to educators supporting students with behavioral needs. Participants will learn how BTs partner with teachers and paraeducators to model strategies, prompt practices discreetly, and offer supportive feedback that strengthens adult skill sets without interrupting classroom flow. The session will explore practical techniques for coaching during instruction, including prompting effective reinforcement, shaping staff responses during escalations, and reinforcing high-quality interactions with students. Through examples and stories from local classrooms, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of how real-time coaching builds staff confidence, improves consistency, and creates more inclusive and predictable learning environments.

OBJECTIVES:
1. Participants will learn practical strategies Behavior Technicians use to provide real-time coaching to strengthen implementation of behavior supports.
2. Participants will be able to identify ways real-time coaching improves consistency, predictability, and inclusive practices within classrooms

DESCRIPTION:
We are often called upon as school providers to create behavioral supports to decrease patterns of difficult behavior, improving upon student success. It is tempting, due to time constraints, to implement tracker programs that are familiar and frequently used. However, creating meaningful behavioral change requires school providers to respond to the unique needs of the individual student, ensuring that function of behavior(s) is clearly understood while delivering rewards that motivate students to work toward long-term behavioral change. When we build a behavioral program that considers the needs of the individual student everyone wins.  

OBJECTIVES:

DESCRIPTION:
This session focuses on high-impact reinforcement practices that improve behavior quickly without relying on complex token systems or prizes. Participants will learn how to use natural and embedded reinforcers, behavior-specific praise, choice, and behavior momentum to strengthen positive behaviors in a way that feels sustainable for busy classrooms. Through practical examples and simple, ready-to-use strategies, educators will leave with a clear understanding of how to deliver reinforcement that truly works and supports long-term student success.

OBJECTIVES:
1. Participants will be able to identify practical reinforcement strategies that can be immediately implemented in classrooms.
2. Participants will learn how to apply simple strategies to fade reinforcement while maintaining positive behavior.

DESCRIPTION:
In response to escalated behavioral needs of students, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic (Weist, et al., 2024), many school districts have begun hiring BCBAs to provide services for students in public schools. However, in a recent article published in Behavior Analysis in Practice, Copeland, Duffie, and Maez (2025) found that most of the BCBAs they surveyed who are now working in public school settings reported that they had little to no preparation during their training and fieldwork experience to prepare them for working in schools. This session will help school teams understand how to best support BCBAs who may not have training in school-based services and how to effectively utilize BCBAs in MTSS systems.

OBJECTIVES:
1. Describe how and why all BCBAs are not created equal.
2. Identify goals for behavior support in your building or district.
3. Create systems to effectively utilize BCBAs in your building or district.
