1 Consequences: Focusing on Restoration
SSCC Cohort

2 Pair Share Questions What is a consequence (positive or punitive) that inspired you to change your behavior? How did it make you feel? How did it affect your relationship with the person giving the consequence?

3 WHY CONSEQUENCES??? Consequences both natural and created guide how we learn in school and in life. The natural consequences of our actions (whether earning or losing something) is the way that we learn throughout life. There are different pathways to learning a new skill based on the consequences that guide us in an alternate direction. We learn new skills when we practice them and someone tells us through works or actions that what we did was correct or incorrect.

4 The Goal of Consequences
Our goal is to change behavior over time, not just in the moment. If the behavior is not changing we are not choosing the right consequences. Using reinforcement instead of punishment teaching students to engage in positive behavior for longer periods of time. Using punish teaches students to stop engaging in negative behavior when adults are present in the moment.

5 Types of Consequences Reinforcement Punishment Positive Negative
Adding something desirable. Example: Earning extra play time. Adding something undesirable. Example: Cleaning up after snack. Negative Taking away something undesirable. Example: 5 minutes less of homework time. Taking away something desirable. Example: Staying in during soccer. The two types of consequences are reinforcement (used to increase a behavior we want to see) and punishment (used to decrease a behavior we do not want to see). There are two categories or both reinforcement and punishment. These are positive (meaning you are adding something) and negative (meaning you are taking away something).

6 Even though we may need to use punishment to stop behavior in the short term….
… if we do not keep RESTORATIVE PRACTICES at the root of our work, we will not help our students grow.

7 Teaching Consequences
In the same way that we teach expectation and reward systems so that it is clear what we want to see and what will happen, we also teach what happens when expectations are not met. Students learn the progression of the consequences of their actions. Students learn that consequences are applied equally. Consequences are not delivered because adults are “unfair” or “targeting” certain students. You avoid emotional triggers associated with students not knowing what is coming.
