 We will c
 over an overview of the causes of targeted behaviors and how they can be r
 emediated through simple changes.
 Research indicates students with Emoti
 onal Behavior Disorders (EBD) are educated in an inclusive setting\, they 
 have better behaviors. However\, little has been done to prepare general e
 ducation classroom teachers for the types of behaviors that can occur when
  a child has EBD tendencies.
 Riffel will share the Three R’s for build
 ing a classroom that is conducive to learning for the students with and wi
 thout EBD. She will share ways to Revise the Environment to set the studen
 t up for success. She will share ways to teach Replacement Behaviors that 
 help the student “save face” by not having everyone know what behavior
 s they are working on in the classroom. Finally\, she will share ways to R
 eframe our Response so we are feeding the replacement behaviors and exting
 uishing the targeted behaviors.
 
  
 
 Overview: A child is consider
 ed for an EBD label in Georgia if they have one or more of the following c
 riteria to the point that it impedes learning:
 
 
 
 An inability to 
 build or maintain satisfactory interpersonal relationships with peers and/
 or teachers. For preschool-age children\, this would include other care pr
 oviders.
 An inability to learn which cannot be adequately explained by i
 ntellectual\, sensory or health factors.
 Consistent or chronic inappropr
 iate type of behavior or feelings under normal conditions.
 Displayed per
 vasive mood of unhappiness or depression.
 Displayed tendency to develop 
 physical symptoms\, pains or unreasonable fears associated with personal o
 r school problems.
 
 
 
 Long term implications are that if students 
 with EBD are co-taught in the general education classroom rather than a se
 parate setting they fare better in high school and beyond. There are less 
 reports of behavioral issues when this is done well (https://sophia.stkate
 .edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1061&amp\;context=maed) .
 Riffel will s
 hare a story of a large school district she consulted in that was housing 
 their students with EBD in separate rooms. The students with EBD had more 
 referrals and lower grades than their peers. After a thorough examination 
 of the behaviors and through field observations her recommendations were t
 o disband all the separate EBD classrooms\, put the special education teac
 hers in the classrooms as co-teachers and put the students with EBD in the
  general education classes. They moved from “being babysat” to actuall
 y performing as well as their peers when they were challenged by interesti
 ng work and had role models that demonstrated how to self-regulate and use
  their words to make their point understood. The staff received training o
 n how to teach self-regulation and voicing opinions appropriately to all s
 tudents.  The staff also received training how to change the set-up of th
 e classroom to help students feel connected to each other.
 Riffel will a
 lso share physiological things that are important considerations when work
 ing with students with the EBD Label.
