From here you will have a multitude of options to sort through and search the different interventions that Satchel Pulse has to offer, what your district has added, and even your own personal intervention library.

Here are some different ways to utilize the interventions library:

  1. Search the Skills library by keyword or phrase.

  2. Create your own intervention.

  3. Filter options to search for interventions.

  4. The whole interventions list until a search or filtering option is selected.

  3. Short description of the resource.

  4. The lesson plan to guide you through the lesson and any additional resources or videos will show up here.

Step Five: Assign/Print the Lesson

Some different things can be adjusted before assigning the intervention to a group:

  1. Title of the intervention and a description of the intervention. you can also add any additional resources here.

  2. Pick which intervention group you want to assign this intervention to.

  3. Set up a start date.
