What Makes Up Our Encouragement?
Encouragement is what we do to prevent behavior issues. It’s proactive. School-wide Expectations and Teach-To’s Classroom teacher spends 1st week on teach-to’s Recess orientation with duties during 1st week Teach-to’s during trimester assemblies Review of teach-to’s and recess orientation after spring break

Praise (5 positives to 1 negative) Staff trading cards Monthly awards for Attitude, Excellence, and Improvement Wall of Fame bulletin board for monthly award winners Prizes for award winners at trimester assemblies Monthly class awards from Specialists Word of the Week character trait awards

What Makes Up Our Data Based Decision Making?
Track performance progress with continuous monitoring & modification for maximum efficiency and effectiveness Data & graphs provided at monthly PBIS committees and then shared with grade level teams Data & graphs shared & discussed at trimester faculty meetings Staff Surveys
7
How Do We Discourage Problem Behaviors?
Clearly define problem and context School-wide and classroom Teach-To’s Anticipate problem behavior and provide pre-correction as a preventative strategy Situational Teach-To’s Implement consistent procedures Routines, schedules, expectations
8
Discouraging Problem Behaviors Continued
Infrequent behavior errors Signal, state rule and expected behavior, have student correct behavior, give positive feedback (Time to Teach model) Chronic behavior errors Pre-correct, go to situation, get attention of students, give reminder, have students practice, acknowledge demonstration, provide positive feedback (Time to Teach model)
9
Still Discouraging Problem Behaviors
Once the student has been given the opportunity to self-correct the behavior, if they still are not following expectations: Get student attention and re-teach Provide choice between expected behavior and staff-managed consequence (Refocus) Deliver staff managed consequence (Refocus) Deliver office-managed consequence (Office Refocus) with referral form
10
Office Discipline Referrals
Minor (Staff Managed) – Teacher refocuses student, determines consequences, notifies parents, and then turns in referral for office data entry Major (Office Managed) – Teacher sends student and completed referral to office and office refocuses student, determines consequences, notifies parents, and completes data entry
