Description
Academic Interventions
Interventions in which students areprovided instruction on missing academic skills. Because students may try to avoid work because of missing academic skills, teaching them the skills may alleviate use of the undesired behavior(s).
Check-In/Check-Out
A structured intervention in which students receive feedback on their behaviorat designated times throughout the day. In the morning, they "check in" with a staff member and then receive period feedback throughout the day from their teacher(s). At the end of the day, they "check out” with the staff member from the morning check-in. Also referred to as Behavior Education Program.
Check and Connect
Students meet periodically with a mentor from school forsupport and guidance.
Check, Connect, and Expect
A intervention that essentially combines elements from Check In/Check Out and Check and Connect. Students receive a mentor and also follow procedures similar to Check In/Check Out.
Classwide Interventions
Interventions that are provided to the whole class, yet are designed to target only one or a few students’ behavior.
Mentoring
Students are assigned a mentor (often from outside the school) that provides a positive role model and promotes attachment to school.
Service Learning Programs
Programs in which students participate in community work that also ties in academic learning.
