During the course, participants will
receive the baseline CHAMPS training as well as have the opportunity to finalize
their behavior plan. Strategies to address needs for behavior plans will also
be shared. All teachers want their students to be orderly, responsive, engaged,
and motivated. According to the most current research on teacher effectiveness,
putting a successful behavior management system in place is a sure way of
achieving these goals. Join Lori Jensen Wilson in online instruction in a fluid
model. Participants can complete the course with weekly assignments and a final.
This CHAMPS course will help teachers in schools throughout the district:
- Improve classroom behavior (on-task, work completion, cooperation)
- Establish clear classroom behavior expectations with logical and fair responses to misbehavior
- Motivate students to put forth their best efforts (perseverance, pride in work)
- Reduce misbehavior (disruptions, disrespect, non-compliance)
- Increase academic engagement, resulting in improved test scores
- Spend less time disciplining students and more time teaching them
- Teach students to behave respectfully and to value diversity, thereby reducing cultural differences that may manifest as misbehavior
- Feel empowered and happy to be in the classroom
- Develop a common language about behaviors among all staff
- Reduce staff burnout
