CHAMPS Vision

Organization When you have well-organized routines and procedures for you classroom, you model and prompt organized behavior from your students.

Physical Space Desk are arranged to optimize the most common types of instructional activities students will engage in and reflect the level of structure students require. Easy access to all parts of the room Disruptions caused by activity in high traffic areas will be kept to a minimum. There is space to display student work. 23

Attention Signal An attention signal has been identified that has both auditory and visual components to teach students. A specific plan for how I will provide both positive and corrective feedback to students regarding how they respond to the signal. 24

Think, Pair, Share What attention signal do you use? Does it have a visual and auditory component to reach all learners.

Correction Procedures When you treat student misbehavior as an instructional opportunity, you give students the chance to learn from their mistakes 41

Correcting Misbehavior Your efforts to eliminate/reduce misbehavior will be more effective if you have considered how you will correct the inappropriate behavior ahead of time. The only way you can judge the effectiveness of your correction efforts is by whether a targeted behavior decreases over time. There are many causes of/purposes for misbehavior and your correction efforts will be more effective in they address the cause. Corrective consequence alone are not likely to eliminate the targeted misbehavior. 42

Analyze Misbehavior You understand the difference and can distinguish among classroom rule violations, early-stage misbehaviors, and chronic misbehaviors. You understand in general that you should be prepared to assign corrective consequences for classroom rule violations, use information- giving corrections in response to early-stage misbehaviors, and develop and implement an intervention plan for chronic misbehavior. 43

Early Stage Misbehaviors Proximity Gentle verbal reprimand Discussion Humor Restitution Emotional Reactions 44
