Teacher: _____________________________________
Based on preliminary data, it has come to our attention that the _____________________ Intervention (CICO) is NOT having a significantly positive effect on
your student (i.e. he/she “is not responding” well to the intervention). Please identify which additional support/s, you feel, would be the best fit for this youth.
1) ____No change in behavior support requested at this time, please continue CICO.
2) Social/Academic Instructional Groups:
____Problem-Solving: To learn replacement behaviors for fighting, arguing etc. (externalizing behaviors)
____Pro-social Skills: To learn replacement behaviors for avoidance, withdrawal etc. (internalizing behaviors)
Academic:
____Academic Behavior: To learn replacement behaviors for calling out,
getting out of seat, behaviors related to homework etc.
____Academic skills/content area
3) Individualized Check-In/Check-Out: Same CICO with one or more of the following changes:
____Change location of Check-In and/or Check-Out
____Change Check-In/Check-Out person (change adult or use a peer instead)
____Change Check-In and/or Check-Out time (or add addition time/s)
4) ____ Mentoring (Focus is on connection/relationship between one adult and youth,
designed/individualized based on youth needs)

SAIG
 Selection
into groups should be based on youths’
reaction to life circumstance, not existence of life
circumstances (ex. fighting with peers, not family
divorce)
 Skills
taught are common across youth in same
group (ex. “Use your Words” for all students in
problem-solving skills group)
 Data
should measure if skills are being used in
natural settings, not in counseling sessions (Is there a
transference of skills to classroom, cafeteria, etc.?)
 Stakeholders
including students, teachers, and
parents should have input into success of
intervention (Daily Progress Report (DPR) Card)
TEAM Planning/Discussion
Based on the 10 Critical Features of Tier 2
interventions and other information…

 Discuss logistics of putting SAIG groups in place
 Discuss your process for identifying students for SAIG (INON-OUT) and determine if it is in writing (such as a flow
chart)
