This study attempts to practice classroom management working with the teachers through an ongoing consultation with OTs, and study the effects of OT intervention in a school setting. Participants: Five different public school teachers with regular classrooms, and their students. Procedures: Before and after the intervention, OTs administered the teacher’s needs and the consulted to determine classroom activities. To grasp the situation in the classes we used Questionnaire-Utilities (Q-U) scale; constructed of satisfaction with classroom and motivation forward school life. We visited classrooms every one or two weeks for five months from November 2012 to March 2014 for observation and interviews. After the intervention, there were semi-structured interviews with the teachers. Results: In all teachers, their problems improved. After intervention, in the Q-U scale, the number of children needing support decreased; also the number satisfied with school life increased.
