Positive Alternatives to Restraint and Seclusion for Aggressive Kids

With aggressive students, effective, research-based interventions by school personnel are critical for the safety of students and adults. Positive Alternatives to Restraint and Seclusion for Aggressive Kids is a system for referral, assessment, planning, and intervention with aggressive kids that reduces the use of restraint and seclusion.

Document serious behaviors, examine the student’s need for self-regulation skills, choose from lessons, activities, and strategies to develop self-regulation skills, and track behavior improvement. The manual addresses emotional and behavioral self-control, techniques for calming, the importance of relationship in improving self-regulation, and developing self-regulation skills.

Based on current research, the interventions provided are practical, positive approaches for use by teachers, counselors, behavior specialists, psychologists, social workers, and administrators. The Student Intervention Plan included is a perfect supplement to a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) in a student’s IEP, 504 plans, or a pre-referral and RTI team plan.

Use the forms provided or interact with the digital files on the CD-ROM for documenting referral behaviors, assessing self-regulation skills needed for improvement, and documenting behavior changes over time.
