You’re not alone. The first weeks of school can feel overwhelming… and even when you start strong, things often fall apart by October, right before the holidays, or in spring when behaviors spike.
That’s why I created this practical, teacher-friendly field manual: a complete, research-backed roadmap that helps you launch strong and stay consistent all year long.
This isn’t theory. This is your step-by-step playbook with ready-to-use routines, scripts, and checklists:
Part 1: Launch (Weeks 1–2)
Threshold greetings, routines, OTR targets, and recognition systems.
Part 2: Sustain (Sept–Oct)
How to prevent “drift” with boosters and weekly data checks.
Part 3: Reboot (Nov–Dec)
Strategies to anticipate holiday restlessness before it starts.
Part 4: Reset (Jan–Feb)
A new-semester fresh start: reteach, reset, and refocus.
Part 5: Deepen (Mar–Apr)
Engagement strategies that push through the spring slump.
Part 6: Finish Strong (May–June)
Reteach routines, celebrate wins, and close the year with confidence.

Checklists for daily, weekly, and monthly success
Quick-reference charts for routines and responses
Self-monitoring tools to help you stay consistent
Scripts for praise, redirection, and correction
