It is expected that most students would achieve between a 4 and a 5 on a regular basis. The lowest acceptable score would be in the range of 3 to 3.5. Anything below a 3 requires an increase in structure (as detailed in Levels of Independence/Instruction With Competitive Game Play) and consideration for further intervention. Students consistently achieving scores between 4 and 5 can be moved up to work on higher levels of independence (Levels of Independence/Instruction With Competitive Game Play).

The materials in this section are designed to help students who enjoy competitive games during physical education classes, recess, and periods of free time, but are challenged to maintain satisfactory emotional regulation during these experiences. The traditional proactive approach has been to work on the development of social skills as well as mood regulation skills in an instructional setting. The traditional reactive approach has been to employ discipline and punitive measures to penalize the behavior or restrict access to the problematic situation. Both approaches have merit and they should probably both be employed at the same time.
