1. PBIS PLC: MAXIMIZING INSTRUCTIONAL MINUTES KATHLEEN BEAUDOIN UW TACOMA TOM EDWARDS AND SHANTI KESSLER KEITHLEY MIDDLE SCHOOL

2. Teaching in a new school community presents both challenges and opportunities related to instructional delivery and classroom management. This session will highlight a professional development project dedicated to supporting teachers new to the building in the process of maximizing their instructional minutes. The project features a PLC format for supporting teachers in determining their targets for intervention, identifying data collection systems that make sense, and utilizing the STOIC process for analyzing data and developing action plans that work. Examples from PLC members will be shared.

3. OBJECTIVE Develop an understanding of a process for supporting teachers in maximizing instructional minutes through data based decision-making.

13. Entrance Activities: Time until start; rates of completion; accuracy of responses Instruction: Rate of participation, Correct academic responses vs. OTRs; frequency counts of positive or negative behaviors Small Group Work: Rate of participation, work completion; frequency counts of positive or negative behaviors Independent Seatwork: Work completion; accuracy of work; assessments; grades DATA SOURCES: WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO EVALUATE HOW WELL STUDENTS ARE MEETING YOUR EXPECTATIONS?
