Accommodation: Preferential seating 2. Accommodation: Breaks
B4a: Explain how your suggestions help support the student:
1. Due to Dexter’s issues with his vision added to his noncompliance of wearing corrective lenses, it is crucial that Dexter, when necessary, sit close enough to the whiteboard to be able to see written information, as well as hear it. Other times, the best location for his seat will be dependent on the expected learning outcome. It is important that where Dexter is seated helps him learn in the classroom.
2. Dexter’s function of his behavior in class is to avoid doing non-preferential work. That is also true when he enters a large group setting like PE, music, the cafeteria, or art class. His replacement behavior is to take a short, well defined breaks when he is expected to participate in non-preferential tasks. Allowing him breaks as an accommodation in all school settings is one part of reinforcing his replacement behavior. The replacement behavior is acceptable both in school and socially.
C. Describe a data collection tool that you would use to document the student’s progress using the replacement behavior in

At Frist Presbyterian Church of Bakerstown I learned while observing and interacting how some of the different set up of areas impacted a student’s learning and space. Some of the areas were used for quiet time, noisier activities, and more active learning. This related to the (Component 2e) because organizing physical space around the classroom provides the student a variety of ways to learn together or alone inside the classroom while also developing their social skills and working through any academic or social difficulties (Component 2d). Lastly, at Head Start the lead teacher provided the students with daily duties inside the classroom. For example, some of the students had the responsibility to clean up stations, and prepare the snack/lunch for the class.

He also is firm on his theory that group teaching is not a reason to not allocate hundred percent seating. In the beginning of the article Hamilton poses the theory that only seventy percent of the time will a child occupy their seat.

Lister’s classroom seems to have different distractions available to the students when such as the library corner/ reading center, their own person belongings (comic books, pencils, etc.), the pencil sharpener, and their own peers. By eliminating those distractions, the students will have to provide their full attention to Ms. Lister. This then leads into the concept of room arrangement and some strategies that can help Ms. Lister to improve her classroom. The students become very distracted when locations or objects are available to them at any moment. Therefore, during class/ lesson time Ms. Lister need to organize the room so that the students know when the certain locations or objects are available for them to use.
The learning theories best support norm-referenced or fixed-choice assessment methods is the behavior theory. With Behavior theory, knowledge is a repertoire of behavioral responses to environmental stimuli. This is a teacher based theory that deals with rote memory, and multiple choice tests (Skinner, 2011). Online students as well as traditional classroom students use motivation in order to well in class.
