Abstract:
This highly practical resource and text presents 70 interventions that have been demonstrated to improve the classroom learning environment, academic achievement, and student behavior and social competence. Each intervention is presented in a brief, standardized format with step-by-step procedures that can easily be implemented by Pre-K-12 teachers and other school-based professionals. The volume includes best-practice guidelines for designing, implementing, and evaluating evidence-based school interventions, as well as strategies for combining multiple interventions to create a comprehensive program at the individual, class, or schoolwide level.   New in this Edition: *Substantially revised and expanded to reflect significant developments in research and practice. *Designed for full compatibility with a response-to-intervention framework. *42 of the 70 interventions are entirely new. *A new chapter on preschool interventions. *Expanded coverage of curriculum-based measurement procedures. *A new category of proactive interventions targeting positive relationships in the classroom.
