What “kind” of students can displayproblematic behavior?

All students. Students with/without  labels who are served in

general/special  education can display problematic behavior.

This is not a special education issue. It is an educat ion  issue.We need to learn more about

the 5 critical features of

effective classroom management

to be able to help all  students.

Evidence Based Practices inClassroom Management

1. Maximize structure in your classroom.

2. Post, teach, review, monitor, and reinforce

a small number of positively statedexpectations.

3. Actively engage students in observableways.

4. Establish a continuum of strategies toacknowledge appropriate behavior .

5. Establish a continuum of strategies torespond to inappropriate behavior .

1. Maximize structure in your classroom.

Develop Predictable Routines – Teacher routines: volunteers, communications,

movement, planning, grading, etc.

 – Student routines: personal needs, transitions,working in groups, independent work, instruction,getting, materials, homework, etc.

Design environment to (a) elicit appropriatebehavior and (b) minimize crowding anddistraction:

 –  Arrange furniture to allow easy traffic flow.

 – Ensure adequate supervision of all areas.

 – Designate staff & student areas.

 – Seating arrangements (groups, carpet, etc.)

3. Actively engage students in observable ways.

Provide high rates of opportunities to respond

 – Vary individual v. group responding

 – Increase participatory instruction (enthusiasm, laughter)

Consider various observable ways to engage students

 – Written responses

 – Writing on individual white boards

 – Choral responding

 – Gestures

 – Other: ____________

Link engagement with outcome objectives (set goals to

increase engagement and assess student change CARs verbal/written)
