The Pyramid Model works in conjunction with the program\u2019s curriculum, but is not a curriculum itself.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>What age group does the Pyramid Model support?<\/h3>\n<p>The Pyramid Model practices and interventions are focused on supporting young children, ages birth to 5 years (i.e., infant-toddler, preschool, kindergarten). For some children with developmental disabilities, they may also be useful up to 8 years old, depending on the disability.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I use the Pyramid Model for school-aged children (K-12)?<\/h3>\n<p>For certain children with developmental disabilities, the Pyramid Model may also be useful up to 8 years old. The practices and interventions of the Pyramid Model, however, are geared toward younger children (up to 5 years).<\/p>\n<p>The school-aged version of the Pyramid Model is <strong>School-Wide Positive Behavior Interventions and Support<\/strong> (referred to as PBS or PBIS) and is appropriate for grades K-12.

I was wondering how often an administrator of the TPITOS or TPOT should attend training to continue being reliable?<\/h3>\n<p>We currently do not have a process outlined for a &#8220;refresher,\u201d nor does the training certificate expire for TPOT or TPITOS. This could change in the future. If you are not actively using the tool, you might consider attending the training again after 2 years. Otherwise, the best way to stay current is to intentionally use the tool several times a year and to conduct a TPITOS with a colleague to examine your inter-rater reliability.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the recommended preparation to be ready to facilitate a Positive Solutions for Families workshop?<\/h3>\n<p>Positive Solutions for Families provides the materials for a parent group facilitator to use to convene and support families of preschool-age children. The package is complete with facilitator scripts and is ready for use by an individual with a strong background in Pyramid Model practices, individualized positive behavior support, and the support of families. Facilitators should have a deep understanding of behavioral principles as applied in a parent-child context and the use of family-centered principles in consultation to families on behavior intervention strategies. Facilitators should have strong skills in providing training and conducting workshops.<\/p>\n<p>If potential facilitators have these skills and dispositions, they should be able to take the materials and use them without additional training. However, it is helpful to attend a train-the-facilitators workshop to receive an orientation to the materials and how to conduct the series.<\/p>\n<h3>Is Positive Solutions for Families approved by Head Start?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes.
