[quote=Anonymous]DS is in kindergarten & went to full time PS. He is low verbal and in a self contained ASD room. We really enjoy his room & teachers. They have been reporting things like ‘unsafe hands’ (hitting) and @ start of the year wandering/elopement. He does like to do his own thing- but the hitting was something we had never experienced. We worked with team on finding replacement behaviors- and it’s working well. Now the latest- he body drops. Full on- in the hallway will lay on the floor. The teacher was explaining this to me- but I actually saw it on Wednesday when I picked him up early. Class was on the way back from music (I was behind him & he didn’t see me). In the middle of walking he sprawled out on the floor. 
I get that all behavior is communication & that all behavior meets a need. My question is- what is the next level of observation we need? I’m less interested in frequency and more interested in antecedents and replacement. 
Do I get a private physch to come in and observe? Do I loop in school physch? 
My main concern with this behavior is safety. It’s simply not safe for him to body drop in school- considering the needs for fire evacuations/active shooter ect. [/quote]
