Opis

What should teachers do when universal Tier 1 behavior supports don't sufficiently meet the needs of all children? Next steps can be tricky to navigate when students appear at risk for developing recurring problem behavior--and that's why every teacher needs this concise, strategy-packed guidebook on targeted behavior intervention and support.
Authors Tim Knoster and Robin Drogan are in-demand experts with a combined 50 years of experience training teachers in positive behavior support in the classroom. Together, they bring you a friendly, encouraging guide to Tier 2 positive behavior support, ready to use in schools with or without an existing PBIS system. Brimming with down-to-earth advice, proven strategies, and relatable anecdotes, this book will get you ready to further prevent behavior challenges and create a safe, positive learning environment for each student in your class.
DISCOVER HOW TO:

• Determine which students will benefit from targeted behavior supports
• Choose formal and informal targeted supports that meet each student's needs
• Make the most of targeted supports already available if your school uses PBIS
• Organize and develop Tier 2 supports on your own if your school doesn't currently implement PBIS
• Strengthen your interventions through effective data collection and analysis
• Fade out or step up the intensity of interventions and supports when necessary
• Recognize when students need more intensive, individualized Tier 3 supports

PRACTICAL MATERIALS: Case stories in each chapter that illustrate different behavior supports in action, sample Behavior Contracts and Good Behavior Charts, an at-a-glance guide to social-emotional screeners, quick-reference charts on the features and uses of specific supports, and more
