PRACTICAL IDEAS THAT REALLY WORK FOR
STUDENTS WITH DISRUPTIVE, DEFIANT, OR
DIFFICULT BEHAVIORS
Second Edition
by Kathleen McConnell, Gail Ryser, & James R. Patton
© 2010
 This resource is for educators who work with students with challenging behaviors. Like the other titles in the PITRW series, this easy-to-use resource consists of two main components: a Practical Ideas Manual and an Evaluation Form.
Each manual contains 35 practical intervention ideas, reproducible worksheets, examples, illustrations, and tips designed for easy implementation. A CD-ROM with all of the reproducible forms is provided along with each manual. Most of the ideas in the second edition of this popular resource are new and the others have been revised and improved.
Educators can incorporate these practical ideas into their campus Response to Intervention framework. Ideas for schoolwide, classwide, group, and individual interventions are provided, along with references indicating their scientific research basis. The complete kit includes everything educators need to provide high-quality, targeted interventions that meet RTI requirements for behavior. In addition, educators who work with students already identified with emotional/behavioral disorders will find effective, easy-to-use ideas that can be integral to their Behavior Intervention Plans (BIPS). The Evaluation Form that is part of the kit has also been significantly improved. It consists of a Rating Scale, an Ideas Matrix, and an Intervention Plan. The Rating Scale is a criterion-referenced measure for evaluating behaviors that impact student learning. The Ideas Matrix provides a systematic way of linking the results of the Rating Scale to interventions. The Intervention Plan is a record-keeping tool used to document (1) the targeted skills, (2) a review of prior interventions, (3) new ideas selected for implementation, and (4) the evaluation methods that will be used to track student progress. The plan is an excellent resource for campus student intervention teams to design and implement effective strategies for students’ behavioral and social success.

EMOTIONAL AND BEHAVIORAL SCREENER
(EBS)
by Douglas Cullinan & Michael H. Epstein
© 2013
The Emotional and Behavioral Screener (EBS) is an accurate and efficient instrument that uses teachers’ ratings to identify students in grades K-12 who show signs of potential emotional or behavioral problems and who warrant careful observation, further assessment, or provision of more than the usual educational service. The EBS can be used by researchers, educational professionals, school district administrators, or principals to screen all students in a school, grade, or class, or an individual student. It can also be used to screen students within a three-tier positive behavior support model.
The EBS is normed on a representative sample of 1,101 non-ED students from 34 U.S. states. Additional studies confirmed the EBS’s content-description, criterion-prediction, and construct-identification validity.
The EBS can be easily administered in less than 5 minutes. It has two components: the EBS Rating Form and the EBS Decision Summary Form. The EBS Rating Form contains 10 items, each of which describes a specific and observable problem. This form is used to record the student’s identifying information; to note each EBS item; to document EBS scores; and to make comments, interpretations, or recommendations. The EBS Decision Summary Form provides a convenient way to record and keep track of multiple scores; to summarize the EBS results; and to indicate directions for further assessment and intervention
