Flowchart When teachers identify a perpetual negative behavior in a student they initiate the process. Start at step 1 - unless administrator gives approval due to severity of behaviors Forms are numbered B1-B5 for reference

Tier 1 Teacher notes concern through classroom behavior data

1. Teacher/Student Conference B1 in packet Teacher and student should do this 1:1 (no other students should be in the room) Be prepared to discuss strengths as well as weaknesses Focus is on building the relationship and understanding Teacher should also use reflection sheet to ensure that tier 1 expectations are being met

1. Tier 1 Tweaks Form B2 in packet See list of “possible” tier 1 tweaks Tweaks are driven by student/teacher conference and student should understand them and their purpose Must be in place for 4 weeks Tweaks may make positive impact but if the behavior is still a concern progression is possible (to tier 2)

1. Parent Contact Made After student/teacher conference the teacher should call parents to explain concerns, results of conference, and ideas for tweaks they will implement Document conversation- make sure to include time/date/notes about parent’s input on situation

2. Decision Making Time Did you see a change in behavior? Were the tweaks truly implemented for 4-5 weeks to fidelity? Do you feel that more support is needed? –No: continue tweaks and stop here –Yes: fill out request for assistance (B3)

2. Request for Assistance This form will ask you for background information (cumulative file), classroom data, etc. Asks for measurable goals for student (1-3) *** Please take your time completing- this will be your voice during IT meeting. If it is missing components the packet will be returned to you before tier II can be considered. ***

***Important Note*** While the first two steps in this process are done primarily by the teacher, the school counselor can be involved. Teachers should never feel alone in this process!

Tier 2 Teacher gives forms B1-B3 to counselor

3. Observation Usually conducted by the school social worker or school psychologist. Documents behavior intervals or severity- consult with teacher before interview to pick an appropriate time. Occurs within one week of packet turn in (Observation form is B4 in packet, there are two to choose from)

4. IT Team Meets Team Consists: Admin, Counselor, School Psychologist, School Social Work. Look over B1-B4 documentation and complete Agenda (B5) Communicates plan to teacher with a data component. If B1-B4 show need, student moves to tier 2. IT Member assigned to student.
