Functional assessment checklist for students 2026

1. Click ‘Get Form’ to open the functional assessment checklist in our editor.
2. Begin by filling in the student’s name, grade, date, and ID number at the top of the form. This information is essential for identifying the student being assessed.
3. In the 'Strengths' section, list activities that the student enjoys or excels at both in and out of school. This helps to highlight positive attributes.
4. Move to the 'Routines Analysis' section. Here, document specific behaviors of concern by noting when and where they occur, along with involved staff members. Use a scale from low to high likelihood to assess each behavior.
5. Prioritize routines for behavior support by selecting those rated 5 or 6. Combine similar routines only if their activities and behaviors align closely.
6. In the 'Behavior(s)' section, rank specific troublesome behaviors and describe them clearly. Include frequency and duration details for better understanding.
7. Proceed to FACTS-Part B by selecting one prioritized routine for further assessment. Document observable behaviors and rank antecedents that trigger these behaviors.
8. Finally, summarize findings in the designated boxes using top-ranked responses from antecedents, behaviors of concern, consequences, and setting events.
