The AIMSweb Behavior module offers four benchmark tools that are useful in identifying possible problem areas for a student. The Behavioral and Emotional Screening System (BESS) tools screen for a variety of behavioral and emotional problems. The BESS Teacher Form can be used in grades K-12 and the BESS Student Form in grades 3-12. Selection and use will likely vary depending on your school. For example, the Teacher Form is sometimes the primary tool used in elementary schools while the Student Form is sometimes the primary tool used in high schools. The Social Skills Improvement System (SSIS) Prosocial Behavior form can be used to identify students with diminished social skills, and the SSIS Motivation to Learn form can be used to identify students with problematic motivation levels. Both forms can be used in grades K-12. Benchmark tools can be used together in any combination, based on the needs of each user and setting.
