The Barclay Classroom Climate Inventory (BCCI) was used in the Athens Teacher Corps Project to appraise individual differences among students in grades 3-5, to guide in selecting alternative curriculum strategies for children with identified skill deficits, and to evaluate the effectiveness of those selected strategies. Intervention strategies suggested by the model are described. Further use of the BCCI is planned to evaluate these alternative approaches. A case study illustrating the use of the BCCI is appended.
