PaTTANrsquos Mission
The mission of the Pennsylvania Training and Technical Assistance
Network (PaTTAN) is to support the efforts and initiatives of the Bureau of
Special Education and to build the capacity of local educational agencies to serve students who receive special
education services
PDErsquos Commitment to Least Restrictive Environment (LRE)
Our goal for each child is to ensure Individualized Education Program (IEP)
teams begin with the general education setting with the use of Supplementary Aids and Services
before considering a more restrictive environment

The Behavior-Instruction Connection Darch amp Kamersquoenui (2004)
Procedures for Behavioral Problems Procedures for Academic Problems bull Assume student refuses to
the wrong way bull Assume the student has learned
cooperate bull Assume student knows what is
(inadvertently) the wrong way bull Assume student has been taught
right and has been told often enough bull Diagnose the problem
bull Provide more negative
instructional strategies provide bull Adjust presentation use effective
consequences withdraw student
feedback practice and review from normal context bull Provide more negative
skill bull Assume student has learned the
consequences maintain removal from normal context
bull Assume student has learned hisher lesson 10
Behavioral Errors
bull More often errors occur because
o Students do not have appropriate skills-
o ldquoSkill Deficitsrdquo
o Students do not know when to use skills
o Students have not been taught specific classroom procedures and routines
o Skills are not taught in context
8242010 11
Why Develop a System for Teaching Behavior
Instead We must assume We have to teach expectationsrules Students will need to practice appropriate
behaviors
We can no longer assume Students know the expectationsrules
Students will learn appropriate behaviors without practice and modeling

Why Develop a System for Teaching Behavior
bull Behaviors are companion for academics
bull Procedures and routines create structure
bull Repetition is key to learning new skills
Ultimate purpose of Positive Behavior Support is to ensure students are
progressingachieving

Why Focus on Supporting Positive Behavior
Instructional Time Lost
bull 17 of teachers lost four or more hours of teaching time per week
bull 19 of teachers said they lost two or three hours
bull In urban elementary schools 21 said they lost four or more hours per week
bull In urban secondary schools 24 said they lost four or more hours per week

bull A quick fix for behavior problems (3-5 years)
bull An off-the-shelf packaged program (developed by the team to fit the school)
bull Just about discipline (teach ndash reinforce)
bull Administrator-free (the principal or assistant principal on the team is essential)
bull Just for problem students (for ALL)
Whatrsquos In It For Me
bull Increased instructional time bull Less time on setting limits bull Better school climate bull Ownership of SW-System bull Use of data for decision making bull Efficient use of resourcestime

Why Develop an Integrated Behavior and Academic Support Model
bull Both are critical for school success
bull Share critical feature of data-based decision making
bull Both utilize three tiered prevention model
bull Both incorporate a team approach at school level grade level and individual level
bull Models of integrated behavior and reading supports produce larger gains in literacy skills than the reading-only model

Critical Steps Developing a School-Wide System of Behavior
bull Establish a school wide leadership or behavior support team
bull Secure administrator agreement of active support and participation
bull Secure 80 + of staff for active support
bull Conduct a self assessment of the current school-wide discipline system
bull Create an action plan from data based decision making
bull Collect data on a regular basis to evaluate the effectiveness of the PBS efforts

GENERAL IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS
RtII Tier 1 Universal School-Wide Support
Behavioral RtII bull Define 3-5 School-wide
expectations (rules)
bull Teach Pre-correctModelPractice and Reteach behaviors (expectationsrules)
bull Use school-wide acknowledgmentsystem daily
bull Classroom procedure for minor problem behaviors
bull Effective and consistent disciplineReferral for major problem behaviors
bull Core team meets regularlymonitor plan recommend amp instruct staff (incl administrator)
bull Data driven decision-making
Academic RtII bull Establish evidence-based
core content matched to standards and benchmarks
bull Systematically directly and explicitly teach corecurriculum
bull Formally reward student academic progress
bull Re-teach core content when needed
bull Establish classroom procedures for minor learning challenges
bull Ensure quick and consistentfollow up for major learning challenges or delays
19
4162013
Tier 1 Interventions Should
bull Result in consistent use of academic and behavioral content matched to a larger number of student needs
bull Result effective classroom management ndash Behavior management ndash Instructional management ndash Environmental management
bull Minimize then number of students needing additional supports at Tier 2 and Tier 3
Instructional Practices
bull Remember when implementing Tier 1 there are a menu of practices to support teaching of the core academic and behavioral content
bull Those practices should result in educational supports for all students
bull Some instructional practices include ndash Co teaching ndash Access to the Standards-aligned (General Ed) Curriculum ndash Collaborative Teaming ndash Cooperative Learning ndash Curricular Modifications ndash Curricular Mapping ndash Universal Design for Learning ndash Flexible Student Grouping ndash Differentiating Instruction
Assessing Tier 1- Use Your Data
bull Where are you at with your current implementation efforts at Tier 1
bull What data is used to make decisions as to whether or not the system is working
bull What is working well
bull What is not working
bull What do we need to provide staff with additional training on
bull What are the next steps for your school or district team
20
4162013
RtII Tier 2Secondary Targeted Interventions
Behavioral RtII Academic RtII
bull Additional teaching around core bull Intensify teaching around core needs needs (ie social skills) (ie secondary reading curriculum)
bull Re-teaching of behavioral bull Intensive small group instruction (ie expectations (ie targeted
homogenous or heterogeneous support) grouping based on student need)
bull Increased exposure to peer bull Re-teaching of core content focused support (ie mentors peer
on areas of need tutoring peer networks) bull Increase the level of support bull More clearly established
mechanism for management of bull Provide additional reinforcement for studentrsquos own behavior with staff student academic progress support (ie self-management check-in check-out amp BEP) bull Ensure quick and consistent follow up
for major learning challenges or delays bull Ensure immediate and consistent
follow up for challenges or delays
Instructional Practices bull When implementing Tier 2 there are a menu of practices to
support teaching of the core academic and behavioral content
bull Those practices should result in educational supports for all students
bull Some instructional practices include ndash Co teaching
ndash Access to the Standards-Aligned Curriculum ndash Collaborative Teaming ndash Cooperative Learning ndash Curricular Modifications ndash Curricular Mapping
ndash Universal Design for Learning ndash Flexible Student Grouping ndash Differentiating Instruction
Tier 2 Interventions Should
bull Result in consistent use of academic and behavioral content matched to smaller groups of student
bull Result effective classroom management and differentiation ndash Behavioral and academic differentiation ndash Instructional management ndash Environmental management
bull Minimize the number of students needing additional support at Tier 3 and result as many students as possible returning to Tier 1
21
4162013
Assessing Tier 2 ndash Use Your Data
bull Where are you as a schooldistrict with your current implementation efforts at Tier 2
bull What is working well
bull What is not working
bull What do we need to provide staff with additional training on
bull What are the next steps for your school team
RtII Tier 3Tertiary Intensive Interventions
Academic RtIIBehavioral RtII bull Identify clear learning challenge bull Identify clear function around based on multiple data sources behavioral concern bull Systematically directly and
bull Develop individualized explicitly teach with effective behavioral support plan based strategies on data and functional behavioral assessment bull Formally reward student
academic progress bull Utilize only evidence-based
practices based on data not bull Re-teach core content creatively and uniquelyopinion
bull Only provide interventions you bull Teach Pre-correctModel and know (based on data not
Practice opinion)
bull Acknowledge with ongoing and systematic recognition system
Tier 3 Interventions Should
bull Result in consistent use of academic and behavioral content matched to individual student needs
bull Result effective classroom management differentiation and individualization ndash Behavioral and academic individualization ndash Behavioral and academic differentiation ndash Instructional management ndash Environmental management
bull Meet the needs of any remaining students who have not had their behavioral and academic needs met at Tier 1 or 2 Should also result as many students as possible returning to Tier 2 and or Tier 1
22
4162013
Assessing Tier 3 ndash Use Your Data
bull Where are you at with your current implementation efforts at Tier 3
bull What is working well
bull What is not working
bull What do we need to provide staff with additional training on
bull What are the next steps for your schoolDistrict team
Changing the Focus of Control
bull Effective teachers recognize that the only behavior they can directly control is their own
bull First thing to do when you encounter a student with problem behavior is NOT to focus on changing hisher behavior but focus on changing your own teaching behaviors
Wrap-Up
bull Educators face challenges in dealing with student behavior
bull Student behaviors impede instruction
bull Student behaviors have multiple causes and multiple solutions
bull Use of PBIS as part of RtII continuum of supports will ensure you are maximizing instructional time thus higher rates of success across all students

Why Develop an Integrated Behavior and Academic Support Model
bull Both are critical for school success
bull Share critical feature of data-based decision making
bull Both utilize three tiered prevention model
bull Both incorporate a team approach at school level grade level and individual level
bull Models of integrated behavior and reading supports produce larger gains in literacy skills than the reading-only model

Critical Steps Developing a School-Wide System of Behavior
bull Establish a school wide leadership or behavior support team
bull Secure administrator agreement of active support and participation
bull Secure 80 + of staff for active support
bull Conduct a self assessment of the current school-wide discipline system
bull Create an action plan from data based decision making
bull Collect data on a regular basis to evaluate the effectiveness of the PBS efforts

GENERAL IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS
RtII Tier 1 Universal School-Wide Support
Behavioral RtII bull Define 3-5 School-wide
expectations (rules)
bull Teach Pre-correctModelPractice and Reteach behaviors (expectationsrules)
bull Use school-wide acknowledgmentsystem daily
bull Classroom procedure for minor problem behaviors
bull Effective and consistent disciplineReferral for major problem behaviors
bull Core team meets regularlymonitor plan recommend amp instruct staff (incl administrator)
bull Data driven decision-making
Academic RtII bull Establish evidence-based
core content matched to standards and benchmarks
bull Systematically directly and explicitly teach corecurriculum
bull Formally reward student academic progress
bull Re-teach core content when needed
bull Establish classroom procedures for minor learning challenges
bull Ensure quick and consistentfollow up for major learning challenges or delays
19
4162013
Tier 1 Interventions Should
bull Result in consistent use of academic and behavioral content matched to a larger number of student needs
bull Result effective classroom management ndash Behavior management ndash Instructional management ndash Environmental management
bull Minimize then number of students needing additional supports at Tier 2 and Tier 3
Instructional Practices
bull Remember when implementing Tier 1 there are a menu of practices to support teaching of the core academic and behavioral content
bull Those practices should result in educational supports for all students
bull Some instructional practices include ndash Co teaching ndash Access to the Standards-aligned (General Ed) Curriculum ndash Collaborative Teaming ndash Cooperative Learning ndash Curricular Modifications ndash Curricular Mapping ndash Universal Design for Learning ndash Flexible Student Grouping ndash Differentiating Instruction
Assessing Tier 1- Use Your Data
bull Where are you at with your current implementation efforts at Tier 1
bull What data is used to make decisions as to whether or not the system is working
bull What is working well
bull What is not working
bull What do we need to provide staff with additional training on
bull What are the next steps for your school or district team

bull Additional teaching around core bull Intensify teaching around core needs needs (ie social skills) (ie secondary reading curriculum)
bull Re-teaching of behavioral bull Intensive small group instruction (ie expectations (ie targeted
homogenous or heterogeneous support) grouping based on student need)
bull Increased exposure to peer bull Re-teaching of core content focused support (ie mentors peer
on areas of need tutoring peer networks) bull Increase the level of support bull More clearly established
mechanism for management of bull Provide additional reinforcement for studentrsquos own behavior with staff student academic progress support (ie self-management check-in check-out amp BEP) bull Ensure quick and consistent follow up
for major learning challenges or delays bull Ensure immediate and consistent
follow up for challenges or delays
Instructional Practices bull When implementing Tier 2 there are a menu of practices to
support teaching of the core academic and behavioral content
bull Those practices should result in educational supports for all students
bull Some instructional practices include ndash Co teaching
ndash Access to the Standards-Aligned Curriculum ndash Collaborative Teaming ndash Cooperative Learning ndash Curricular Modifications ndash Curricular Mapping
ndash Universal Design for Learning ndash Flexible Student Grouping ndash Differentiating Instruction
Tier 2 Interventions Should
bull Result in consistent use of academic and behavioral content matched to smaller groups of student
bull Result effective classroom management and differentiation ndash Behavioral and academic differentiation ndash Instructional management ndash Environmental management
bull Minimize the number of students needing additional support at Tier 3 and result as many students as possible returning to Tier 1
21
4162013
Assessing Tier 2 ndash Use Your Data
bull Where are you as a schooldistrict with your current implementation efforts at Tier 2
bull What is working well
bull What is not working
bull What do we need to provide staff with additional training on
bull What are the next steps for your school team
RtII Tier 3Tertiary Intensive Interventions
Academic RtIIBehavioral RtII bull Identify clear learning challenge bull Identify clear function around based on multiple data sources behavioral concern bull Systematically directly and
bull Develop individualized explicitly teach with effective behavioral support plan based strategies on data and functional behavioral assessment bull Formally reward student
academic progress bull Utilize only evidence-based
practices based on data not bull Re-teach core content creatively and uniquelyopinion
bull Only provide interventions you bull Teach Pre-correctModel and know (based on data not
Practice opinion)
bull Acknowledge with ongoing and systematic recognition system
Tier 3 Interventions Should
bull Result in consistent use of academic and behavioral content matched to individual student needs
bull Result effective classroom management differentiation and individualization ndash Behavioral and academic individualization ndash Behavioral and academic differentiation ndash Instructional management ndash Environmental management
bull Meet the needs of any remaining students who have not had their behavioral and academic needs met at Tier 1 or 2 Should also result as many students as possible returning to Tier 2 and or Tier 1
22
4162013
Assessing Tier 3 ndash Use Your Data
bull Where are you at with your current implementation efforts at Tier 3
bull What is working well
bull What is not working
bull What do we need to provide staff with additional training on
bull What are the next steps for your schoolDistrict team
Changing the Focus of Control
bull Effective teachers recognize that the only behavior they can directly control is their own
bull First thing to do when you encounter a student with problem behavior is NOT to focus on changing hisher behavior but focus on changing your own teaching behaviors
Wrap-Up
bull Educators face challenges in dealing with student behavior
bull Student behaviors impede instruction
bull Student behaviors have multiple causes and multiple solutions
bull Use of PBIS as part of RtII continuum of supports will ensure you are maximizing instructional time thus higher rates of success across all students

bull Result effective classroom management ndash Behavior management ndash Instructional management ndash Environmental management
bull Minimize then number of students needing additional supports at Tier 2 and Tier 3
Instructional Practices
bull Remember when implementing Tier 1 there are a menu of practices to support teaching of the core academic and behavioral content
bull Those practices should result in educational supports for all students
bull Some instructional practices include ndash Co teaching ndash Access to the Standards-aligned (General Ed) Curriculum ndash Collaborative Teaming ndash Cooperative Learning ndash Curricular Modifications ndash Curricular Mapping ndash Universal Design for Learning ndash Flexible Student Grouping ndash Differentiating Instruction

academic progress bull Utilize only evidence-based
practices based on data not bull Re-teach core content creatively and uniquelyopinion
bull Only provide interventions you bull Teach Pre-correctModel and know (based on data not
Practice opinion)
bull Acknowledge with ongoing and systematic recognition system
Tier 3 Interventions Should
bull Result in consistent use of academic and behavioral content matched to individual student needs
bull Result effective classroom management differentiation and individualization ndash Behavioral and academic individualization ndash Behavioral and academic differentiation ndash Instructional management ndash Environmental management
bull Meet the needs of any remaining students who have not had their behavioral and academic needs met at Tier 1 or 2 Should also result as many students as possible returning to Tier 2 and or Tier 1

bull What is working well
bull What is not working
bull What do we need to provide staff with additional training on
bull What are the next steps for your schoolDistrict team
Changing the Focus of Control
bull Effective teachers recognize that the only behavior they can directly control is their own
bull First thing to do when you encounter a student with problem behavior is NOT to focus on changing hisher behavior but focus on changing your own teaching behaviors
Wrap-Up
bull Educators face challenges in dealing with student behavior
bull Student behaviors impede instruction
bull Student behaviors have multiple causes and multiple solutions
bull Use of PBIS as part of RtII continuum of supports will ensure you are maximizing instructional time thus higher rates of success across all students

PBS is NOThellip
bull A top-down approach (80+ staff buy-in is crucial)
bull A quick fix for behavior problems (3-5 years)
bull An off-the-shelf packaged program (developed by the team to fit the school)
bull Just about discipline (teach ndash reinforce)
bull Administrator-free (the principal or assistant principal on the team is essential)
bull Just for problem students (for ALL)
Whatrsquos In It For Me
bull Increased instructional time bull Less time on setting limits bull Better school climate bull Ownership of SW-System bull Use of data for decision making bull Efficient use of resourcestime

bull Result effective classroom management ndash Behavior management ndash Instructional management ndash Environmental management
bull Minimize then number of students needing additional supports at Tier 2 and Tier 3
Instructional Practices
bull Remember when implementing Tier 1 there are a menu of practices to support teaching of the core academic and behavioral content
bull Those practices should result in educational supports for all students
bull Some instructional practices include ndash Co teaching ndash Access to the Standards-aligned (General Ed) Curriculum ndash Collaborative Teaming ndash Cooperative Learning ndash Curricular Modifications ndash Curricular Mapping ndash Universal Design for Learning ndash Flexible Student Grouping ndash Differentiating Instruction
Assessing Tier 1- Use Your Data
bull Where are you at with your current implementation efforts at Tier 1

bull Result effective classroom management and differentiation ndash Behavioral and academic differentiation ndash Instructional management ndash Environmental management
bull Minimize the number of students needing additional support at Tier 3 and result as many students as possible returning to Tier 1
21

Assessing Tier 2 ndash Use Your Data
bull Where are you as a schooldistrict with your current implementation efforts at Tier 2
bull What is working well
bull What is not working
bull What do we need to provide staff with additional training on
bull What are the next steps for your school team

academic progress bull Utilize only evidence-based
practices based on data not bull Re-teach core content creatively and uniquelyopinion
bull Only provide interventions you bull Teach Pre-correctModel and know (based on data not

bull What is working well
bull What is not working
bull What do we need to provide staff with additional training on
bull What are the next steps for your schoolDistrict team
Changing the Focus of Control
bull Effective teachers recognize that the only behavior they can directly control is their own
bull First thing to do when you encounter a student with problem behavior is NOT to focus on changing hisher behavior but focus on changing your own teaching behaviors
Wrap-Up
bull Educators face challenges in dealing with student behavior
bull Student behaviors impede instruction
bull Student behaviors have multiple causes and multiple solutions
bull Use of PBIS as part of RtII continuum of supports will ensure you are maximizing instructional time thus higher rates of success across all students

Changing the Focus of Control
bull Effective teachers recognize that the only behavior they can directly control is their own
bull First thing to do when you encounter a student with problem behavior is NOT to focus on changing hisher behavior but focus on changing your own teaching behaviors
Wrap-Up
bull Educators face challenges in dealing with student behavior
bull Student behaviors impede instruction
bull Student behaviors have multiple causes and multiple solutions
bull Use of PBIS as part of RtII continuum of supports will ensure you are maximizing instructional time thus higher rates of success across all students

Wrap-Up
bull Educators face challenges in dealing with student behavior
bull Student behaviors impede instruction
bull Student behaviors have multiple causes and multiple solutions
bull Use of PBIS as part of RtII continuum of supports will ensure you are maximizing instructional time thus higher rates of success across all students
