Brad Brown & Kim Beeson, PSESD

2. Frameworks and Climate
MTSS stresses a continuum of interventions
promoting development and preventing problems
responding to problems as early-after-onset as feasible
(3) treating severe, pervasive, and chronic problems.
But
PBIS Uses positive reinforcement – stems form behaviorism with focus on teach, reinforce observable behaviors
“RESPECTFUL, RESPONSIBLE, SAFE”
Incentives: ‘cougar cash’ focus on teachers doing minor disciplinary action within the classroom and referring major disc to office.
So scenario: teacher consult on how to reinforce positive behavior – will do 5:1 etc. Counselor will ID, monitor behavior for patterns to learn function of behavior and intervene at that level.
SEL: effective prevention programs promote effective social emotional skills – so Olweus, Good Behavior Game, 2nd Step et al.
CASEL has 5 competencies and wa state has new benchmarks. Along with curricula is partnerships with CBOs for teir 2 and 3; SEL is build into the learning mission
