PBIS/ Olweus Presentation

BEFORE WE START
1. A HUGE shout out to our PBIS teams 2. Do not think of this as something else to do 3. This system works IF done correctly and staff buy in is present 4. At any point ask questions, lets make this a conversation 5. Get excited! A story about my summer project

Before They look just fine, right?!

After Knew we could do better!

WHY DID I TELL YOU THIS STORY?

1. My cabinets look really good. 2. Most importantly, this example is much like our PBIS project. - It looked scary right away. - At some points I wanted to fizzle out. - Our students here are GREAT people. How great is it that we are in a district that believes we can do better for our students! - Always getting better!

The Problem/Challenge
Problem behavior is the single most common reason why students are removed from regular schools, work and housing settings Traditional efforts to get tough or train and hope have proven ineffective

PBIS IN A NUTSHELL
A set of systemic and individualized strategies for achieving social and learning outcomes while preventing problem behavior.

CORE ELEMENTS OF PBIS

Clearly defined expectations Research-validated practices Supportive administrative systems Use of information (data) for problem solving

WARRIOR FRENZY!
Lets make someones day.

MAIN LOGIC
Prevention Teaching Systems

PREVENTION
Prevention All children need behavior support The most efficient approach to improving behavioral climate of schools

TEACHING
Teaching is the most powerful behavior support intervention supports appropriate behavior combined with clear continuum of consequences produces positive results

SYSTEMS
Systems
Effective practices need nurturing Information (data) gathering and use for decision-making

THE WARRIOR WAY

School and community language Our slogan encompasses what our expectations for our students in every aspect of day Student is running down the hall BAM! Warrior Way (The will know what this means without saying the negative)

The Bees, no I mean Bes?

Be Kind Be Respectful Be Safe Be Responsible

Students PreK-12th will know these!

Acknowledgement System
Fish or Frog or (insert the animal you used here ) Approach Warrior Pride Tags Can be given out by ANY staff member Need to make Warrior Pride Bucket for class Given to students much like our positive referrals, but given out more regularly

Acknowledgement System
Every Friday buckets collected and each grade level will have a student named as their Warrior of the Week and announced every Monday during the announcements (These are picked randomly) There is a PBIS bulletin board in each building (Readlyns half of main bulletin board) (Fairbanks is down the PreK-2nd Grade Hallway) This may change to a bulletin board by lunch room

Postcards
Ordered a bunch of postcards that will be mailed home These can be given out randomly, really anytime you want to.

Awesome Logos

Discipline
Tri-Sheets will be handed out. In both buildings I will have a box. (used for documenting) major and minor. Matrix will serve as a guide (knowing something will not be on there.)

The Matrix (Will be posted in every location)

Cafeteria -Good manners -Line basics (hands to yourself, voices off, face forward) -Get your supplies -Pick up your spot -Raise your hand (wait for an adult) -Walking -Not sharing food (food allergy)

Bee Academy
Meant to clearly define expectations RIGHT AWAY ALL STAFF involvement. Schedule will be sent out, but here it is in next slide

Olweus
Classroom Meetings Implementation logs, this will help with data that needs to be collected Classroom Meetings That Matter as a resource

Talk to me about the connection of Olweus and PBIS

We are going to create a school climate so positive, that bullying cases will dramatically decline. If we create the positive culture with PBIS and address bullying with the Olweus classroom meetings our school climate will because more positive. If students feel welcome and safe more learning will happen. Lots of ifs there Sinram. It is up to us.
