Summary: "Addressing the increasing number of culturally and linguistically diverse students in today's schools, this practical text provides general and special education teachers with the knowledge, skills and strategies to make the proactive, active and reactive interventions necessary for an optimal learning environment. Going beyond the traditional rules and hierarchy of consequences and reinforcements, the book demonstrates how to incorporate basic classroom management plans, functional behavioral analysis, functional behavioral assessments and behavioral intervention plans into the development and implementation of response-to-intervention and schoolwide positive behavior support programs. In every chapter, the authors use real-world examples and case studies to explore how language and culture affect students' responses to behavior and classroom management. Unique chapters cover social skills training and collaborating with families of diverse students." -- Provided by publisher
