Common behavior modification techniques - a student will only perform a behavior for four reasons and once the antecedent is figured out the behavior can be better managed using a replacement behavior and small environmental changes.
PBIS focuses on using practices, systems, and data to guide decisions when interacting with students. The core of PBIS strategies start in the classroom. Data shows making time to praise and celebrate your students gaining trust and building relationships with their parents and redirecting inappropriate behavior will provide a positive atmosphere for students to work at their full potential, feel safe and supported, and ultimately aid in their achievement.
The presenters will share the context and processes of pilot PBIS implementation in an urban middle school, including projects designed to engage students in the co-construction of their classroom expectation matrix for the unique space of the art classroom, resulting student work, outcomes and next steps.
