Educators discover practical strategies to motivate students to engage in responsible behavior, build positive relationships, manage their work, understand acceptable uses of electronic devices in the classroom, and engage with instruction. For students who struggle in school related to experiences of trauma, poverty, systemic racism, generational difficulties with the school system, or a disability, purely punitive and reactive approaches will not encourage positive behavioral changes. Teachers will learn proactive strategies to structure for success, reduce misbehavior before it happens, focus on positive behavior and student strengths, and use an instructional approach to correct behavioral missteps. CHAMPS teachers guide students toward a successful school career and increase their chances for success in work and in life. The research-based CHAMPS approach will help teachers create highly successful classroom management plans that will: (1) Include high expectations for all students' success; (2) Build positive relationships with students; (3) Create consistent, predictable classroom routines; (4) Teach students how to behave successfully; (5) Observe and monitor student behavior and data; (6) Provide frequent positive feedback; and (7) Correct misbehavior in a calm, consistent, and fluent manner. CHAMPS and Discipline the Secondary Classroom are companion processes to improve student behavior within the classroom. CHAMPS is designed for K-8 Classrooms and Discipline in the Secondary Classroom is designed for 9-12 classrooms. CHAMPS is organized to more closely follow the STOIC framework as it guides you through assessing your and your students' needs and developing your Classroom Management Plan. New material covers: (1) How the CHAMPS approach aligns with initiatives such as multi-tiered systems of support for behavior (MTSS-B), social-emotional learning priorities, and trauma-informed practice; (2) Acknowledging and appreciating diversity and improving equity, inclusion, and access by reflecting on existing regularities in discipline planning and identifying better practices that help all students thrive and achieve their full potential; (3) Centering positive relationships at the foundation of your management approach by using strategies to consciously build and maintain relational trust with students and families; (4) The importance of maintaining and communicating high expectations for all students, and strategies for doing so; (5) Procedures for managing partner and cooperative group work and student technology use; and (6) Implementing behavior management practices in the virtual learning environment.
