Nonviolent Crisis Intervention

Which of the following situations would we use physical intervention for?

• Student is refusing to leave.

When a student is showing signs of anxiety, staff should (select all the correct answers):

• Use the supportive stance

• Monitor their tone, volume and cadence of voice

• Leave them alone.

• Restate the directive

Why is it important to use a team approach?

• So you have someone to talk to

• So that you can have another person present if you need to do physical intervention

• There is no "I" in "team" (but there is in "win")

• So that you maintain expected management techniques and someone to support what actually happened

• Person most knowledgeable/best rapport of the student

• First on scene

• Tell them, "You will do what I say. I'm the teacher."

• Restate the expectation and give them choices

Which of the following examples are techniques for limit setting?

• Teacher says "Respect my authority!"

• Teacher talks to student to get them to comply.
