Class-Wide Function-Related Intervention Teams (CW-FIT): A Classroom Management Intervention that Works!
Student classroom misbehavior is a common concern for teachers. This session will focus on Class-Wide Function-related Intervention Teams (CW-FIT), an evidence-based, multi-tiered behavior management program. Studies of the CW-FIT program have shown increased engagement for classrooms and for individual students, as well as decreased disruptions. Teacher praise rates have also shown improvement. Additionally, teachers and students report liking the CW-FIT program. With CW-FIT, teachers are trained to directly teach social skills, increase praise rates, and hold students accountable for behavior through group contingencies. Self-management and help-card interventions are also implemented for students who need additional support. Participants will learn practical strategies in positively managing classrooms with CW-FIT through direct instruction, visuals, role-plays, video presentations, and discussions regarding Tier I and Tier II.
- Attendees will gain knowledge about an evidence-based classroom management intervention they can implement with fidelity in their classrooms or with classrooms they support.
- Attendees will watch video examples of Class-Wide Function-related Intervention Teams (CW-FIT) implementation in public schools and receive the opportunity to participate in role-plays and discussions about CW-FIT components.
- Attendees will walk away with an understanding of Class-Wide Function-related Intervention Teams (CW-FIT), a multi-tiered classroom management intervention. They will also receive information about whom to contact for further training.
