Introduction
A teacher’s ability to manage his or her
classroom can greatly enhance the quality of
the education for all students, including those
with special needs.
Organizational and management dimensions
are typically deemphasized in teacher
education programs.
Classroom management is the area that first-
year teachers consistently identify as most
problematic for them.

Classroom management is a systematic
structuring of the classroom
environment to create conditions in
which effective teaching and learning
can occur.

Decreasing
Undesirable Behavior
Natural consequences should be provided
when the situation itself provides the
contingencies for a certain behavior.
Example: Student forgets permission slip for a field
trip and is not allowed to go on the field trip.
Logical consequences occur when there is a
logical connection between inappropriate
behavior and the consequences that follow.
Example: Student forgets lunch money and has to
borrow money in(c)order to 2004Copyright

Positive Behavior
Support
Positive behavior support involves the
assessment and reengineering of
environments so people with problem
behaviors experience reductions in these
behaviors and increase the personal quality
of their lives (Horner, 2000).
Emphasizes changing the environment
rather than just focusing on changing
the behavior of individuals

Behavior
Intervention Plans
Behavior intervention plans are
mandated by the IDEA for students with
disabilities who display seriously disruptive
behaviors.
Behavior intervention plans reflect a
proactive response to these disruptive
behaviors. This in contrast to traditional
reactive approaches such as
suspension/expulsion.
