Applying Behavior Supports with Explicit Instruction: Taking Stock & Taking Steps

In this course you’ll learn how to merge Explicit Instruction’s classroom instructional strategies with behavior management. It’s a course designed for teachers of all skill levels, from beginner teachers, to veteran teachers.

You’ll learn how to take stock of your current situation, understand the functions of both classroom and behavior management, build feedback strategies into your classroom routines, utilize support systems and different types of practice, and build long-lasting success strategies for your students. We'll place an emphasis on progress monitoring, showing you how to gather data, give appropriate feedback, and determine the next steps you'll need to take.

 

In this session we’ll take stock of where you are on your instructional and management strategies. Whether you’re a beginning teacher, or you’ve got fifteen years underneath your belt, it’s important to understand what you’ve been doing, is it working, is it effective, and can it be improved?

We'll then show you how to take the next steps in your behavior management journey while also building a multi-tiered approach of classroom instructional strategies.
