About this title

Synopsis

The time has come to separate academic achievement from student behavior attributes. Author and trusted assessment expert Tom Schimmer shares a three-tiered framework and trauma-informed, restorative, and schoolwide approaches to teaching responsibility, nurturing student accountability, and addressing student behavior in a way that teaches students the life skills they need to thrive in the classroom and in the larger world.

• Learn how to create trauma-informed, restorative, and schoolwide approaches to teaching the skills of responsibility to students
• Discover how to improve students’ social competence through a process of goal-setting, self-monitoring, and self-reflection
• Gain an understanding of how the PLC at Work® and RTI at Work™ processes, as well as strong assessment practices, can redefine student accountability in the classroom
• Understand how reinforcement works and how to use it to benefit students
• Explore why behavior should be separated from grades and how to effectively assess and report on behavior
