This presentation will help special educators, classroom teachers, and support professionals improve their behavior interventions, while at the same time making them easier and more manageable! This will not only help individual, tier 3 behavior students access the curriculum, but it will decrease stress on schools overall, helping all students thrive in a positive learning environment. We will briefly identify common tier 2 and 3 behaviors, and the frequent interventions corresponding to them. The bulk of the presentation will troubleshoot those interventions, looking at what frequently goes wrong and needs fine tuning in their implementation. Specifically, the presentation will provide tools to ease data collection and analysis; facilitate collaboration, input, buy-in from all staff, especially general education teachers; make interventions work with limited staff resources; and adjust interventions to a variety of typical classroom settings. Ultimately, the tools participants gain will help all staff implement quality behavior interventions and provide a positive learning environment for all students.
