4 PILLARS OF PBIS PBIS Correct Behavior Errors Establish Expectations Teach Expectations Reinforce Behavior
ESTABLISH EXPECTATIONS Positively stated Few in number (3-5) Observable Age and developmentally appropriate Discuss the biggest behavioral concern on your buses?
WHY TAKE TIME TO TEACH EXPECTATIONS? If a child doesn t know how to read . . . We teach. If a child doesn t know how to swing . . . We teach. If a child doesn t know how to multiply . . . We teach. If a child doesn t know how to drive . . . We teach. If a child doesn t know how to behave . . . we _________ ...Teach? .Punish? Why can t we finish the last sentence as automatically as we do the others?
TEACH EXPECTATIONS Make sure that ALL students understand the rules, and have a chance to practice desired behaviors. Reteach & re-practice desired behaviors when problem behaviors spike, or might be expected to spike (e.g. holidays) How do you teach students expectations?
TEACH EXPECTATIONS Schools will teach expectations at the beginning of the year Drivers will benefit from re-teaching and re-practicing expectations when behavior problems spike, or when behavior problems are most likely to spike (i.e. before holidays, spring break, etc.) The more positive the re-teaching, the more impactful it will be! Show students you re on the same team
REINFORCE EXPECTED BEHAVIOR Catch students doing the things you want them to be doing, and acknowledge them. Prevent problem behaviors from occurring by increasing positive reinforcement to those who are doing it right. What are some examples of how you reinforce students for good behavior?
REINFORCE EXPECTED BEHAVIOR: PROPOSED, IDEAS WELCOMED Mix up the reward system as needed Give positive feedback consistently Build relationships with kids . . . I noticed Have fun Ideas: Verbal praise Golden Ticket Special seat First one off the bus
