Solve serious behavior challenges in K-8 classrooms with Prevent, Teach, Reinforce 2ed - an easy-to-use book, the first practical guide to the research-proven Prevent-Teach-Reinforce (PTR) model. Developed by some of the most respected authorities on positive behavior support, this innovative model gives school-based teams a five-step plan for reducing problems unresolved by typical behavior management strategies.

With this thorough blueprint for PTR, education professionals will learn how to prevent behavior problems by adjusting the curriculum and environment; teach proactive communication skills; and reinforce prosocial behavior and academic achievement.

This highly successful model is: • proven effective by research and field testing in real classrooms: PTR was shown to reduce behavior problems and increase evidence of social skills and academic engagement • detailed and explicit, with five systematic steps that take educators beyond tips and strategies • consistent with the popular positive behavior support approach and derived from the principles and many procedures of applied behavior analysis • easily adaptable to the needs and goals of each individual student • effective for a wide variety of students: typically developing students and those who have autism, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, emotional and behavioral disorders, and other challenges

On the included CD-ROM are all the printable forms and tools needed to implement PTR, such as Behavior Support Plan templates and a Functional Behavioral Assessment. With this comprehensive model, education professionals will resolve even the toughest classroom behavior challenges and remove a significant barrier to effective teaching and student achievement.

Developed by highly respected experts on positive behavior support, this research-proven model gives school teams a step-by-step blueprint for reducing problems unresolved by typical behavior management strategies. Exceptionally well written, organized and presented, ‘Prevent-Teach-Reinforce’ is unreservedly recommended for school district, college, and university library Teacher Education and Education Administration collections and supplemental studies reading lists."

"PTR provides the guide for developing individualized interventions for students with challenging behavior that are effective and feasible for implementation in the classroom. There is no other resource that provides the team with the practical step-by-step process they need to develop and implement behavior intervention plans that work for students and teachers."
- Lise Fox, Professor and Co-Director at Florida Center for Inclusive Communities, University of South Florida

"Dunlap and his colleagues have done it again. The PTR model distills the practices of ABA and the philosophy of positive behavior support into an effective set of strategies that can be implemented by school teams. This evidence-based approach to SWPBIS provides school teams with the information that they need to create school communities that meet the needs of all students. I recommend this book to educators interested in building inclusive and supportive school communities."
