Positive Behavior Support at the Tertiary Level: Red Zone Strategies

This book focuses on tier three behavior support for students who exhibit very challenging behavior and who require intensive individual instruction to modify it. The educator will be able to read the book and use the information to successfully implement a functional behavior assessment. The result will be a behavioral intervention plan which is based on data and positive and proactive strategies rather than on adult reactions to negative behavior. This easy-to-use guide will help K–12 educators understand the importance of having a plan and includes:

1. An overview of functional support
2. A problem solving model
3. Data collection techniques and tools
4. Antecedent and consequence modifications
5. Replacement behavior teaching
6. Behavioral intervention planning with highlights from real students
