Review "Detailed and practical, this is an excellent go-to resource for all professionals who assist with the design and delivery of strategies to improve academic and behavioral outcomes for struggling students. The book includes an overview of key factors to consider when planning intervention assistance, and it offers a comprehensive set of evidence-based school interventions. This is a very user-friendly, student-focused work that will help school personnel ensure their students are being provided with research-supported practices. I am eager to introduce this text into the teacher preparation program at my university."--Christopher J. Lemons, PhD, Department of Special Education, Peabody College of Vanderbilt University "This timely guidebook pulls together the expansive wisdom of three scholars of evidence-based school interventions and shares it in a highly usable format. Whether you are part of an intervention assistance team at your school site, a district leader, or a future educator or psychologist preparing to work with students, these strategies are just what you need to promote success in behavior or academics. As a university-based researcher who prioritizes collaboration with PreK–12 educators, I know that I will call on this third edition in many ways as I prepare teachers, interact with school-based assistance teams, and help school leaders to design more effective structures for multi-tiered systems of support. Having all of this information in one book has saved me many, many hours of extra work!"--Lori Helman, PhD, Department of Curriculum and Instruction, and Director, Minnesota Center for Reading Research, University of Minnesota "The Prologue notes that this book was born out of a school psychology trainee’s question: 'What do I do after I’m done listening to the teacher?' Prior editions have answered this question for tens of thousands of trainees and practitioners. The third edition continues to be one of the most important books in education and school psychology--it genuinely bridges the research-to-practice gap and provides interventions for real teachers, schools, and kids. I devoured this book in two sittings. I have used prior editions in teaching for the last 14 years, and am excited to make the third edition required reading for all of my first-year school psychology students and teacher trainees."--Rebecca S. Martínez, PhD, School Psychology Program, Indiana University Bloomington "As a school-based practitioner, I am continually looking for ways to stay up to date with the latest research and developments in the field, as well as to assist my teams of teachers and intervention specialists with practical, evidence-based instructional strategies they can begin using immediately. The third edition of this easy-to-read book is precisely what any school psychologist o
