Description
Minimise problem behaviour and maximise student success!
Acting-out behaviour by students manifests in ways that make classroom management and academic success very challenging.
In this time- and field-tested resource, Colvin and Scott present a system for understanding acting-out behaviour in terms of seven phases and correcting it before it gets in the way of student engagement and learning. The newly updated edition draws on the latest research to deliver a clear roadmap for educators to assess acting-out behaviour and to design effective interventions in a clear, systematic, and achievable manner.
Rooted in applied behaviour analysis, sound instructional principles, and functional behaviour assessment, Colvin and Scott's method includes:
- Strategies for each phase of the acting-out cycle—from structuring the classroom, to managing agitation and escalated behaviour, to recovery
- Case studies that distil concrete action steps from the book's concepts
- Checklists, tools, resources, and templates for applying the book's principles to any classroom.
No educator should be without this definitive guide to classroom management and social skill development that sets the stage for student success in school.
