How can schools create safe, well-supervised classroom environments while also teaching students skills for managing their behavior on their own? This invaluable guide presents a framework for achieving both of these crucial goals. It shows how to balance external reinforcements such as positive behavior supports with social-emotional learning interventions. Evidence-based techniques are provided for targeting the cognitive and emotional processes that underlie self-discipline, both in classroom instruction and when correcting problem behavior. Describing how to weave the techniques together into a comprehensive schoolwide disciplinary approach, the book includes over a dozen reproducible forms, checklists, and assessment tools. The large-size format facilitates photocopying. This book is in The Guilford Practical Intervention in the Schools Series, edited by Sandra M. Chafouleas.

There are many serious social, and economic problems that impact student s’ behavior. Because countless minorities are at risk of behavior problems caused by poverty, racism, discrimination, and other negative conditions, special attention needs to be given to the development of programs and strategies to prevent behavioral problems. Developmental guidance programs in elementary schools that attend to the needs of all children are effective ways to prevent problems before they begin. Experts on poverty and inequality see a role for preschool intervention to help children from disadvantaged backgrounds have a better chance at success when they start elementary and secondary schools. Several models have been discussed such as reinforcing and rewarding behaviors, and consequences and punishment. In order to minimize disruptive behaviors, effective classroom management is the heart of preventing discipline problems. Teachers have put in place beginning the first day of school, their rules, procedures, and expectation in order to reduce problems in the classroom. A positive classroom climate is also needed to improve student learning and encourage good behavior.
