Finding ways to prevent and mediate academic and behavioral difficulties is a high priority area for both research and practice. The focus of this study is on the effects of implementation of Orton-Gillingham Reading intervention strategies on active engagement for students with challenging behaviors. Using a single-subject alternating treatments design across 3 elementary school classrooms, increasing the rate of teachers' positive feedback and opportunities to respond was examined for effect on the engagement of students identified with challenging behaviors.
