CHAMPS

I am reading the book CHAMPS written  by Randy Spricks, Ph.d. this summer.  I was not able to attend the district CHAMPS training this summer because the seats were filled before I had an opportunity to register.  I am therefore reading in order to understand this approach to classroom management prior to attending a training session in the future.  CHAMPS is  an evidence-based  approach to classroom management.  It is not a curriculum or a program.   The book is titled CHAMPS because CHAMPS is an acronym and reflects behavioral expectations:

C    Conversation
H    Help
A    Activity
M    Movement
P     Participation
S     Success

In my next blog posting I will discuss, Section 1 - Structure Your Classroom for Success.
On the education tab for this blog, I will post strategies and activities  which can be used with CHAMPS .
