Answer

Plan ahead and have all the materials and reinforcers ready before starting the activity

Explain

The issue here is the lack of immediate availability of the promised reinforcer (iPad), which led to the student's frustration. Planning ahead ensures that all materials and reinforcers are ready, preventing such situations and maintaining the effectiveness of reinforcement.
