2. The forms and locations in which the expectations are posted on the school grounds and in the classroom.

3. How expectations are initially taught, reinforced, and monitored school-wide and at the individual classroom level for students who start the academic year at the school site or later in the year.

4. When differentiation is appropriate for teaching and reinforcing those expectations, including examples of that differentiation.

5. How classroom and school-wide behavioral expectations are communicated to students and families.

6. The teacher's reflections on the overall degree of effectiveness of her or his classroom management plan.

7. Recommendations for change of the classroom's management plan based on personal experiences.
