Introduction This semester we completed a consultation project in a series of stages to support a preschool- aged student at the Waisman Children Center in Madison, WI. Our student, Patrick, is a four-year old boy who struggled to communicate with others in the classroom. Patrick has an IEP due to his premature birth and language delay. We began the consultation process by completing a routines- based interview with our cooperating teacher where we determined our functional goal, Patrick will use 4-6 word phrases to greet, make requests, and/or invite a peer to play at least 2 times a day, 2 days a week for 4 weeks, because of Patricks decreased ability to initiate social interactions with others, especially his peers. Next, we planned and implemented strategies to help Patrick reach his goal within his classroom-learning environment with the help of the programs Speech-Language Pathologist. Through observations completed by our cooperating teacher we were able to track Patricks progress. By the end of the four weeks, it was evident that Patrick had made significant gains in initiating conversational interactions with his peers and had met his goal. The following documents are included as evidence to our semester long consultation experience: 1) Case Study Overview 2) RBI Interview Form 3) RBI Reflection 4) Planning Worksheet 5) Activity/Strategy Matrix 6) Goal Assessment Scale

CHILD OVERVIEW Days of the week child attends program:
All weekdays (Monday Friday) Childs Overall Health (based on daily observations and RBI):
Patrick is in good health. No health issues were noted or observed. Social relationships and Interaction skills (based on daily observations and RBI):
He has a delay in social interactions with peers. He tends to play by himself and only initiates conversation with adults. Independence (based on daily observations and RBI)
Patrick is very independent. For example, he will not let someone else help him put his coat on. He wants to do it all by himself. Engagement in Routines and Activities (based on daily observations and RBI)
At times, Patrick has trouble attending to the activity. He sometimes stares off into space during activities. During discovery time he does not stay at a center for more than 5 minutes. He often wanders around the room.
Areas of Concern (from Planning Worksheet):
Patrick can communicate with others. Sometimes his speech gets a little jumbled up and it is difficult to understand him. When social engagements present themselves he prefers to talk to adults rather than his peers. If a peer approaches him he will interact, but he does not initiate the interactions.
FUNCTIONAL INTERVENTION PLAN EVALUATION Functional Goal/s:
Patrick will use 4-6 word phrases to greet, make requests, and/or invite a peer to play at least two times a day, two days a week.
Strategies:
Embedded learning opportunities (ELO) in two of the routines during the day (i.e., free play and small group activities)
Indicator: Number of times Patrick initiates communication with a peer.
Scale Progress Level Descriptive Data 4 Much more than expected outcome Patrick will use 4-6 word phrases to greet, make requests, and/or invite a peer to play at least three times a day, three days a week, for 4 weeks. 3 More than expected outcome Patrick will use 4-6 word phrases to greet, make requests, and/or invite a peer to play at least three times a day, two days a week, for 4 weeks. 2 Expected outcome Patrick will use 4-6 word phrases to greet, make requests, and/or invite a peer to play at least two times a day, two days a week, for 4 weeks. 1 Less than expected outcome Patrick will use 4-6 word phrases to greet, make requests, and/or invite a peer to play at least two times a day, one day a week, for 4 weeks. 0 Baseline performance Patrick will use 4-6 word phrases to greet, make requests, and/or invite a teacher to play at least two times a day, one day a week, for 4 weeks.

Based on your data, was/were the goal/s achieved?
Based on the data, Patrick met his goal of using 4-6 word phrases to greet, make requests, and/or invite a peer to play at least three times a day, two days a week.
If not, what factors influenced the child outcomes?
Not applicable. Were there any unanticipated outcomes?
He was very quick in responding to the intervention plan and in meeting his goal. This was partly due to the added support of having the SLP at the preschool also using ELOs to increase Patricks conversational initiations with peers.
Was the collaborative consultation process an effective way of developing and implementing the functional intervention plan?
In this case, yes the collaborative consultation process was an effective way for implementing Patricks functional intervention plan. We were able to not only collaborate with one another (i.e., consultee and consultants), but also with the teachers and SLP at the preschool to implement our intervention plan.

RBI Report Form Routines-Based Interview R. A. McWilliam, 2003 Revised January 2006 Vanderbilt Center for Child Development Directions: This form is designed to be used to report the findings from the McWilliam model of conducting a routines-based interview. A second person (e.g., someone assisting the lead interviewer) can use the form to summarize the discussion during the interview, or it can be filled out at the end of the interview. For each routine, include questions that help to gather information about the childs engagement, independence, and social relationships. 1. For each routine, write a short phrase defining the routine (e.g., waking up, breakfast, hanging out, circle, snack, centers). 2. Write brief descriptions about the childs engagement in the Engagement box (e.g., Participates with breakfast routine, banging spoon on the high chair or Pays attention to the teacher; names songs when asked; often leaves circle before it has ended). 3. If the interview revealed no information about one of the three domains, circle No information in that domain for that routine. 4. Write brief descriptions about the childs independence in the Independence box (e.g., Feeds herself with a spoon; drinks from a cup but spills a lot or Sings all the songs with the group, but needs prompting to speak loudly enough) 5. Write brief descriptions about the childs communication and social competence in the Social Relationships box (e.g., Looks parent in the eye when pointing to things in the kitchen or Pays attention to the teacher at circle but cant stand touching other children). Childs Name Patrick Date of birth 2009 Who is being interviewed Amber Rodriquez Interviewer Becky Tollefson, Megan Brey, Allison Zimmerman Date of interview 10/10/2013 What are your main concerns? Patricks level of interaction with other children, particularly very verbally. Patrick is also very distractible, so his ability to stay on task.
Routine: Arrival/Free Play/Morning Snack Questions: (1) How is this time period going for Patrick? (2) What about independence during this time? /How do you feel his level of independence is in terms of choosing an activity and participating in the morning routine? (3) Is there anything in terms of his communication that we should be aware of with teachers or other students? (4) Generally is his speech intelligible? (5) How would you rate your satisfaction with Patrick in this routine? Engagement Patrick uses materials appropriately and respectfully. He is easily distractible, and changes activities every five minutes or less. Patrick engages in some cooperative play, but does not verbally engage with peers often. Independence At arrival, Patrick needs some help with taking his coat off, but can do everything else independently. Patrick attempts to complete tasks on his own before asking a teacher for help. He is not afraid to ask for help. Social Relationships He keeps to himself during free play. He would rather engage and play with teachers than his peers. There is limited verbal social interaction.

Questions: (1) How is his engagement during your outdoor time? (2) What does he do during this routine? (3) Was he engaging with friends? (4) What about his independence during the transition between this routine and the previous one? (5) How would you rate your satisfaction with Patrick during this activity? Engagement Patricks engagement outside varies greatly depending on the day. He sometimes observes other children or wanders around the playground by himself. He recently joined a game of tag with some peers, which was surprising for Amber to see. Independence Patrick independently prepares for outside time with the exception of getting his jacket zipped up. He knows when and where to line up and does so appropriately. Occasionally towards the end of outdoor time, Patrick will sit in the spot where the class lines up, waiting to go inside. Social Relationships This is a time for interacting with others Usually Patrick will not interact with other students. He will communicate with the teachers, but rarely engages with his peers.

Engagement 1) On days in which Patrick takes a nap, he wakes sleepy and remains crabby for the afternoon. On these days, his level of engagement is low, and he prefers to be left alone. 2) On days in which Patrick does not nap, he is more awake in the afternoon and engages more. He chooses independent activities, or joins groups of peers if encouraged. Independence Patrick doesnt often eat afternoon snack, but independently goes to the snack area if he does choose to have one. At dismissal, he independently collects his things to leave.

Social Relationships Either way, nap or not, he will choose to keep to himself, play by himself and do his own thing. He avoids interacting with other students, and again would rather interact with adults in the classroom.

RBI REFLECTION YOUR REFLECTIONS 1. Active listening --- For example, listening with an attentive posture, giving the other an opportunity to talk, establishing an environment where the other person feels comfortable speaking, showing interest through body language, attending to the context not just to the delivery of the message. Your Reflection: Throughout the interview all participants held an attentive posture and we felt that we gave the interviewee an adequate amount of time to respond. In addition, we appeared interested in what the interviewee was saying and attended to the responses that she provided us with. All the consultants have their eyes on the interviewee the majority of the time she is speaking and are actively taking notes in response to the concerns demonstrating active listening. 2. Furthering responses --- For example, giving short but encouraging responses that invite the speaker to continue, verbally following to assure the speaker that the message is heard, understood, and important. Your Reflection: Overall we felt that we did a good job of giving responses that left the interviewee feeling that she could elaborate if needed. We felt that we could improve on asking follow-up questions and clarifying the question we are asking (i.e., in terms of the goodness of fit and what we were referring to). Additionally, we felt good about the responses we gave to the interviewee to acknowledge that we were hearing what she had to say. Next time we would want to ask more questions to probe for more information. 3. Paraphrasing the main idea in the speakers message --- For example, restating and summarizing what has been said in own words and checking for accuracy in understanding. Your Reflection: When opportunities presented themselves we did a good job of summarizing what the interviewee was telling us about the child with phrases such as So what Im hearing you say is. However, as the instructors mentioned, next time we would want to summarize at the end of the interview everything that we had covered. 4. Reflecting feelings back to the speaker--- For example, responding to affect to show empathy and interest in the speakers emotions related to a message. Your Reflection: We felt that we did our best to reflect the feelings the speaker was presenting throughout the session. This ties in with the previous question as well. The interviewee didnt show many emotions during the interview, therefore empathy and interest in the speakers emotions was not necessarily a main aspect in this interview. 5. Questioning --- For example, probing through the use of different types of questions (open ended and close ended), encouraging speaker to elaborate or expand on a topic Consultation Project Portfolio Group 01 Ally Zimmerman, Megan Brey, Amber Rodriguez, & Becky Tollefson
12
Your Reflection: Both open and closed ended questions were asked during our RBI interview. We might want to encourage more elaboration the time next we would conduct an interview, however our interviewee was fully prepared and gave detailed responses to most of our questions, so in many situations we did not need to encourage elaboration. 6. Summarizing --- For example, integrating the relevant facts into a succinct statement, obtaining closure when speaker seems to have said everything s/he has to say, summarizing main points about shared information Your Reflection: As previously mentioned, next time we would want to more explicitly summarize the findings and results of the interview at the end of the session. This is something that we would definitely improve on. We got a lot of good information during the interview, but we did not give our interviewee a summary of what we learned at the end. Our RBI interview ended abruptly, we need to make sure to cover this area better next time. PLANNING WORKSHEET Date: 10/14/ 13 Childs Name: *Patrick* Classroom Teacher: Amber Rodriguez Consultant/s: Megan, Ally and Becky Cooperating Teacher: Deb Erickson Location: Waisman Center, Madison, WI
CHILDS STRENGTHS Based on the information you have gathered thus far, what are the childs strengths? What caregiver strategies and/or environmental factors support the childs strengths? Very independent in all tasks he completes Usually engaged in what activity the class is working on Communicates with adults often throughout the day Engage in social and verbal interactions with him to get him talking Ask him which areas hed like to play in and invite him to play with other students AREA OF CONCERN AREA OF CONCERN: What is a major area of concern? Does it relate to the childs engagement, social relationships and/or independence? Patrick can communicate with others. Sometimes his speech gets a little jumbled up and it is difficult to understand him. When social engagements present themselves he prefers to talk to adults rather than his peers. If a peer approaches him he will interact, but he does not initiate. CONTEXTS OR ROUTINES: In what routines or contexts is the area of concern most apparent? What factors are limiting the childs engagement, social relationships, independence? CURRENT SUPPORTS: What strategies are currently being implemented by the childs ECEC providers to address this area of concern? Are these strategies effective? Free play and lunch: he will often play parallel to other students; if it is cooperative play, there isnt much verbal interaction. At lunch he communicates with the teachers, but mostly just quietly eats.
His OT will have him go around the room and ask a friend to play a game with them. While doing an activity, if he asks the teacher about a peer, they will tell him to ask that peer PLANNING WORKSHEET Date: 10/14/ 13 Childs Name: *Patrick* Classroom Teacher: Amber Rodriguez Consultant/s: Megan, Ally and Becky Cooperating Teacher: Deb Erickson Location: Waisman Center, Madison, WI
OUTCOMES: What changes do you want to see in the childs behavior and/or skills related to this area of concern? What should the child be able to do? Does it address engagement, independence or social relationships?
CONTEXTS OR ROUTINES: In what contexts or routines should these changes occur? When/where will you observe the child do this?
INTENSITY AND FREQUENCY: At what intensity and how often do you want to see these new behaviors or skills? How often, in how many routines, with how many people, in how many places, or over what period of time would you need to see the skill to be convinced that it is acquired? We would like to see Patrick initiate a conversation with a peer Make requests to peers and adults Invite peers to play with him Anytime in the classroom -Discovery Time -Lunch -Music -Gym -Outside on the playground We would like to see him do this at least 2 times a day, 2 days a week for 4 weeks. As many people as possible would be great, but even just one peer would be helpful. FUNCTIONAL GOAL:
PATRICK WILL USE 4-6 WORD PHRASES TO GREET, MAKE REQUESTS, AND/OR INVITE A PEER TO PLAY AT LEAST 2 TIMES A DAY, 2 DAYS A WEEK FOR 4 WEEKS. Is the goal meaningful (to the family and caregivers)? YES Is the goal strength-based and focused on real life situations? YES Can the goal be practiced by multiple people, at multiple times of the day, during normal routines and activities? YES Are the action words in the goal observable and measurable? YES Can everyone understand what is expected (no jargon)? YES Will everyone know when the skill is acquired? YES
