This comprehensive guide offers simple and effective strategies for supporting and improving the classroom behavior of all your students, including those with intensive behavior support needs. Applicable across all K-12 contexts, with recommendations for whole classes as well as individual supports, each practical strategy builds on a foundation of research-supported behavioral approaches. The authors emphasize how each strategy can help build and maintain positive relationships between students and educators, which has been shown to be a key predictor of individual student success. With a myriad of helpful visuals, ready-to-use planning templates, and easy-to-try ideas, this book is key reading for all general or special education teachers, school support staff, and instructional coaches.
