Daily Behavior Report Cards : An Evidence-Based System of Assessment and Intervention

This book presents everything needed to design and implement daily behavior report cards (DRCs), a flexible and dynamic system for promoting positive student behaviors and overcoming barriers to learning. DRCs offer a way to reward K-12 students for achieving clearly defined goals while building school-home collaboration. Teachers can implement the authors' evidence-based approach in just minutes a day, and it is fully compatible with multi-tiered systems of support. In a convenient large-size format, the book includes helpful reproducible forms. Purchasers get access to a Web page where they can download the reproducible forms (and have the option to fill in forms on-screen before printing) plus additional useful tools for charting student progress.

This book is in The Guilford Practical Intervention in the Schools Series, edited by Sandra M. Chafouleas.
