This newly revised and updated edition of Interventions helps educators who work with challenging students plan and implement evidence-based, tiered strategies to increase motivation and improve behavior. By implementing the universal proactive and positive schoolwide approach detailed in the Safe & Civil Schools Series, teachers can spend less time dealing with disruption and more time teaching. However, some students will need more individualized support. Learn how to create a continuum of problem-solving and intervention supports for students who don't respond to universal efforts---or those students who require levels of support, resources, or expertise characteristic of Tier 2 or Tier 3 supports. This book is designed for school personnel who have responsibility for ensuring that students' needs for behavioral, social, and emotional support are met, as well as anyone who will be involved in planning or implementing an individual intervention: *School psychologists *School counselors *Behavior specialists *Members of existing problem-solving teams *Building-based administrators *Members of your behavior leadership team *District personnel such as special education directors/coordinators, directors of school psychology, and supervisors of school counselors This revised edition provides recommendations for efficient schoolwide coordination for delivery of intervention services---the background tasks administrators and school leaders must complete in order to establish a system for individualized intervention. It also presents an evidence-based model to guide effective and efficient problem-solving for individual students. The framework for building behavior interventions can be used for any stage of a problem, with implementation guidance, sample forms, charts, and data collection tools. Step-by-step instructions detail how to plan and implement a set of specialized intervention strategies.

Early-Stage Interventions: Behavior Strategies for Every Teacher offers a set of simple, teacher-friendly interventions to use as a starting place in addressing an individual student's chronic misbehavior---disrespect, noncompliance, lack of motivation, bullying, aggression, and more. Though every teacher will encounter students who display challenging behavior, many feel unprepared to effectively deal with such behavior in the classroom. This book presents a continuum of early-stage interventions that are easy for a classroom teacher to plan and implement. The teacher starts with the simplest one first, and continues on only when the student's behavior doesn't improve. Step-by-step directions guide the teacher through each of these interventions: *Planned Discussion *Correction Planning *Increasing Positive Interactions *Data Collection and Debriefing *Goal Setting *Building a Supportive Relationship *Function-Based Intervention When Teachers are able to improve misbehavior in the classroom in its early stages, a school's more intensive Tier 2 and 3 resources can be focused on intervening with more intractable behavior problems.
