Ch. 2 Task One: Arrange an Efficient Daily Schedule
– Provide enough VARIETY to increase time on task and interest• Write down your schedule of daily subjects,
• List the activities inherent within each subject
• Determine amount of time per activity and whether the activity is teacher directed (lecture, discussion, question/answer) or independent work (seatwork, lab) or a cooperative task. – Find BALANCE among types of activities: 40% teacher directed; 35%
independent work; 25% cooperative groups
– Avoid having any task run too long
– Schedule independent work and cooperative/peer group tasks so that they immediately follow teacher-directed tasks

expectations.Video: ch 6 task 1
61
WHY: To help you decide whether you need to re-teach
your CHAMPS expectations • To help you decide whether your current level of
structure fits the needs of your class • To help you decide whether you might need some
kind of classwide system to increase students' motivation to behave responsibly
WHEN: • During the fourth or fifth week of school • Shortly after major vacations (e.g., winter and
spring breaks)
62
63
Tool 2: Ratio of InteractionsMonitoring Form(s)
Determine whether you are interacting with students at least three times more often when they are behaving responsibly than
when they are misbehaving.Read: Page 251-256
64
WHY: • To help you evaluate whether you have fallen into the
Criticism Trap—that is, whether you are responding so frequently to misbehavior that the behavior stops in the short run but is actually increasing over time• To help you decide whether you need to increase the
number of interactions you have with students when they are behaving appropriately
WHEN: • During the second month of school • In early to mid-February• Any time you sense that you are nagging a lot
