Be “Paws
1 School Wide Positive Behavior Support (SWPBS) Be “Paws-itive” The school Wide Positive Behavior Support system has been adopted by Indian Valley Elementary Center as a means to instill proper behavior within our students. Using the guided model approach to teach proper types of behavior, the faculty and staff of Indian Valley are constantly showing the students the types of behavior we hope to see from them. After faculty/staff discussions it was determined that our “hot spots” include: the bathrooms, playground, cafeteria, auditorium, the nurse’s office, laptops, and buses. From here we developed our core expectations for each area. These expectations focus on our slogan: Be “Pawsitive”. Throughout our school, at each “hot spot” location, students are reminded of our “Paws-itive” expectations for that particular area. The expectations are broken down into four general items: Respectful, Responsible, Ready, and Safe. Each student is encouraged to show better behavior by following these simple expectations in order to shape themselves into becoming Better “Paws”. The SWPBS is best understood by thinking of it as RTII for behavior. Tier 1 is the universal piece, which includes all students. As referrals are made and documented for behavior, data can be tracked and will allow administration to make decisions on behalf of the student to progress to Tier 2 or 3, if needed. A sample referral form follows, as well as a broken down tier triangle for your reference. With this program, we are able to acknowledge the students on various levels for showing proper behavior. Students can be acknowledged independently, as a class, and then as the school. To acknowledge the students independently, we have chosen to implement a system called “Be Paws-itive”. They are also acknowledged independently within the classroom setting. Using “Paw” tickets to acknowledge students for displaying proper classroom behavior and following classroom expectations correctly, teachers are able to acknowledge students according to their own acknowledgement system. A classroom acknowledgement system is in place as well. Finally, this program offers a chance for the entire school to celebrate proper behavior at the close of each marking period. Further explanations of each acknowledgement system follow. If you should have any questions regarding the School Wide program, please do not hesitate to ask. The School Wide core team has a representative from each grade level. They are your “go to” people. The next “step” would be to the building coaches, and finally to the principal. If there is something that you feel needs taken directly to the principal please do so. Thank you for your part you play in making this program a success. 2 CONTINUUM OF SCHOOL-WIDE INSTRUCTIONAL & POSITIVE BEHAVIOR SUPPORT FEW ~5% Primary Prevention: School-/ClassroomWide Systems for All Students, Staff, & Settings ~15% SOME Tertiary Prevention: Specialized Individualized Systems for Students with High-Risk Behavior Secondary Prevention: Specialized Group Systems for Students with At-Risk Behavior ALL ~80% of Students 1 3 4 Acknowledgement System 1. Teachers, paras, bus drivers, lunch staff, and administrators should hand out 10 tickets per week (any student in the school). Watch for students who are demonstrating positive behaviors. You can hand out tickets during lunch duty, recess or even walking down the hallway. Quickly fill out the PAW with the observed behavior, student’s name and your name. 2. There will be 5 prize buckets across from the gym, in the display case. The prizes will change each week. The prize buckets will be marked so the students know what prize they hope to win. Designate a time, each day, for students to drop off their PAWS tickets into the buckets. (This could be prior lunch, special, end of the day before announcements, recess) Whatever works for the classroom teacher! 3. At the beginning of each day, 3 students’ names will be drawn from the buckets. Their names will be announced during the morning announcements. These students need to come to the office immediately to receive a simple acknowledgement and to write their name in the PAW-of-Fame Book in the office. The teacher’s name on the PAW ticket will also be announced so they can be acknowledged as well. The tickets will go back into the buckets until the end of the week. 4. Every Friday, at least 5 students’ names will be drawn from the buckets. These students need to come to the office immediately to receive the prize from the bucket. They will sign the PAW-of-Fame Book. The teacher’s name on the PAW ticket will be read too. 5. Faculty and staff members will be acknowledging their coworkers throughout the week. When a faculty or staff member is acknowledged he/she will place his/her ticket in one of bins located in the office. A drawing will be held every other week. 6. Classroom teachers will need to keep track of who has received PAWS in their class on the classroom poster or in a way that best suits your classroom needs. (You could have students be in charge of this!) 7. School Wide Celebrations will be held at the end or near the end of each marking period. 5 I WAS CAUGHT BEING “PAWS-ITIVE” I WAS CAUGHT BEING “PAWS-ITIVE” Student Name:_________________ Student Name:_________________ Given By: _____________________ Given By: _____________________ I WAS CAUGHT BEING “PAWS-ITIVE” Student Name:_________________ Given By: _____________________ I WAS CAUGHT BEING “PAWS-ITIVE” Student Name:_________________ Given By: _____________________ 6 Observe Problem Behavior Ignore Behavior Physical Proximity Warning/Conference with Student: Ask 3 Questions: 1.

Respectful behavior: Students will use a 0 voice when out of seat; #2 voice when seated; touch own food; say “Please” and “Thank you”; and be kind. Responsible behavior: Students will clean up after self; follow the flow on dumping; place belongings in cubby; Stop, Walk, and Talk (SWT). Ready: Students will get everything they need and only what they need the first time through the line. Safe: Students will raise hand if they need anything; bottom on seat and feet on the floor. Step 2: List a rationale for teaching the behavior (Why is it important?) *It is important to be respectful in the cafeteria so the noise doesn’t disrupt other students and cafeteria workers. Using proper manners and being kind is appropriate behavior when eating in the cafeteria. Touching your own food is important so that students don’t interfere in others’ personal space. *It is important to be responsible in the cafeteria so students learn how to clean up after themselves and keep the cafeteria clean. They should know where to go when dumping so that there is less confusion. Keeping belongings in cubbies is important so students don’t lose their personal items. Students should use SWT so that they can solve their own problems. *It is important to be ready in the cafeteria so that students are not disrupting other students in line. *It is important to be safe in the cafeteria so that students do not get hurt or hurt other students. Step 3: Identify examples and non-examples of the desired behavior (What would the behavior look/sound like? What would the behavior not look/sound like?) Examples Non-examples Use a 0 voice when out of their seat Unkind words Use a#2 voice (normal voice) when Teasing seated. Pushing/shoving Come in, put belongings in cubby (if Yelling they have them), sit down, and wait Running to be dismissed to the line Getting into a person’s physical space Touch only their own food Leaving food items on the table or Keep hands and feet to yourself floor Getting out of line 10 Say “please” and “thank you” to other students, teachers, and cafeteria staff Be kind to everybody If you leave any food or wrappers on the table, clean them up. Get only one napkin, fork/spoon, and straw when in line Walk to the line when dismissed – NO running Stay in your place in line Use only amount needed of condiments When dismissed to dump tray, walk and follow the correct flow When dismissed to go to recess, get belongings and walk to recess Raise hand if they need something Sit with bottom on seat and feet on floor (if they reach ) Utilize SWT if needed Using more condiments than needed Getting more utensils than needed Sitting down before having all needed materials Keeping belongings on them rather than in cubby Touching other people’s food Not following the flow Tattling Not sitting on bottom Step 4: Practice/Role Play Activities (Students NEVER model non-behaviors!) Model expected behavior (I do): Teacher(s) model or read following scenarios. The teacher discusses why second scenario is an example of respectful behavior.) Sally ran into the cafeteria, yelling “I’M HUNGRY! I HATE CHICKEN NUGGETS!” She threw her coat on the floor and went straight up to line and grabbed a handful of napkins and straws. She budged in the front and ran to get way too much ketchup. When she sat down, she realized she forgot a fork, so she ran up to get one, while yelling at her friends. When she got back to her table, she was turning around and grabbing fruit snacks from the boy behind him. Sally had to go to the bathroom, so she just walked to the bathroom to go. After she got back, she got up and dumped her tray, but went the wrong way and was bumping into students and teachers. She went straight out to recess and didn’t wait for the teacher. Sally walked into the cafeteria and placed her belongings into her cubby. She walked in a straight line to her table. She sat and talked with her neighbors until the teacher dismissed her to the line. She walked to the line and grabbed one straw, one napkin, and one fork. She thanked the cafeteria workers and walked to get a little bit of ketchup. When she got back to her table, she sat on her bottom with her feet on the floor and ate her lunch. She had to use the restroom, so she raised her hand and asked the teacher. When she got back, she realized a wrapper was on the floor, so she picked it up and put it on her tray. The teachers dismissed the students to dump. She walked in the correct direction to dump her tray. She sat down and waited for the teacher to dismiss, so then she walked to recess. 11 Lead students through behavior (We do): Teacher(s) present following scenario. Students will discuss why second scenario is an example of respectful behavior. While several students were sitting at their table, Bobby leaned over and grabbed Kim’s pizza and said, “You don’t need that pizza, you fat cow.” Kim started screaming at Bobby and went to tell the teacher, whining, “He took my pizza and called me a fat cow!” While several students were sitting at their table, Bobby leaned over and grabbed Kim’s pizza and said, “You don’t need that pizza, you fat cow.” Kim told Bobby to stop making fun of her and to give her the pizza back. Bobby listened and apologized for his comment. The teacher witnessed this and gave them each an acknowledgement ticket. Test to ensure students understand behavior (You do): With a peer, students are asked to come up with their own scenario. Student groups will act out appropriate, respectful behavior for their scenario. Teacher and other students will provide feedback to peer groups. Step 5: Provide opportunities for practice Publicly recognizing students who display respectful behavior Teacher regularly models respectful behavior Booster lessons 12 Lesson Plan to Address Behavior in the Auditorium Step 1: Identify the desired behavior and describe it in observable, measurable terms. Respectful Behavior: Students will give their full attention to the presenter(s). A (0) voice will be used at all times, unless instructed to speak/participate by the presenter(s). Students will be seated with feet in front of them. Responsible Behavior: Students will keep their hands and feet to themselves at all times in order to not disturb those around them. Ready: Students’ bodies will be still and facing the front of the stage. Safe: Students will raise their hand to participate or obtain an adults’ attention. Students will remain seated unless otherwise instructed. Step 2: List a rationale for teaching the behavior (Why is it important?) *It is important to be respectful to the presenter(s) when in the auditorium. Using voices and not sitting still when seated will prevent others from being able to hear, see, and enjoy the presentation. *It is important to be responsible in the auditorium in order to keep our bodies and voices under control. *It is important to be ready in the auditorium so that the presenter(s) know we are prepared to listen to their presentation. If we are not ready, the presentation may not begin on time and we may not be able to enjoy it in its entirety. *It is important to be safe in the auditorium so that others can enter and leave quickly. Being safe will also prevent student accidents. Step 3: Identify examples and non-examples of the desired behavior (What would the behavior look/sound like? What would the behavior not look/sound like?) Examples Non-examples - 0 voices - Touching others around us - Raise hand if help is needed - Turned around in seat - Facing front - Sitting on knees - Feet on the floor - Speaking to other students - Remain seated - Hands and feet to self -Listen to presenter Step 4: Practice/Role Play Activities (Students NEVER model non-behaviors!) Model expected behavior (I do): Teacher(s) model or read following scenarios. The teacher discusses why second scenario is an example of respectful behavior.) 13 Kevin was not excited about today’s assembly. He was very upset that he would have to sit through eighty minutes of musical presentations. Because of this, he decided to turn around and talk to his friend, Sam, about their upcoming baseball practice. Kevin was not excited about today’s assembly. He was very upset that he would have to sit through eighty minutes of musical presentations. However, he realized that although he did not enjoy the topic, he would be respectful to those performing onstage. Kevin’s teacher acknowledged his respectful behavior with a “paw ticket”. Lead students through behavior (We do): Teacher(s) present following scenario. Students will discuss why second scenario is an example of respectful behavior. Emily, Jenn, and Courtney chose to sit next to each other for the band assembly in the auditorium. They did not like the two students who were performing a routine onstage. They decided to lean back in their seats and “boo” the performers using a (1) voice and giggle afterwards. The performers onstage noticed the girls’ behavior. Emily, Jenn, and Courtney chose to sit next to each other for the band assembly in the auditorium. They did not like the two students who were performing a routine onstage; but they chose to applaud for the students at the end of the performance. The students onstage felt good about their performance. Test to ensure students understand behavior (You do): With a peer, students are asked to come up with their own scenario. Student groups will act out appropriate, respectful behavior for their scenario. Teacher and other students will provide feedback to peer groups. Step 5: Provide opportunities for practice - Reminders prior to the beginning of every assembly - Individually recognize students who display respectful behavior - Music teachers regularly model respectful auditorium behavior 14 Lesson Plan to Address Behavior on the Playground Step 1: Identify the desired behavior and describe it in observable, measurable terms. Respectful: The students will be able to share and take care of the equipment. The students will use positive forms of communication. Responsible: The students will be able to pick up and return all equipment that is left out when the whistle blows and also use the equipment correctly. The students will dress for the weather. When problems arise the students will use the SWT strategy and when needed the students will use the buddy bench. Ready: The students will be able to line up quickly and quietly when the whistle is blown. Safe: The students will be able to play within the boundaries. Students will keep the mulch on the ground and wear closed toed shoes with a back. Step 2: List a rationale for teaching the behavior (Why is it important?) It is important to be respectful when using the playground so everyone can enjoy the equipment and their recess time. It is important to be responsible when using the playground so that the equipment gets returned to the correct location and does not become damaged. It is also important to dress for the weather so the students can comfortably play outdoors. The use of the SWT strategy helps the students solve problems independently and positively. The buddy bench will ensure that all students will have a friend to play with at recess. It is important to be ready so that the students can hear instructions from the teacher. This helps all members of the learning community make it back into the school quickly quietly. It is important to be safe by staying in the boundaries, keeping the mulch on the ground, and wearing closed toed shoes with a back. This way the students will always be in the teacher’s sight and reduce the injuries on the playground. Step 3: Identify examples and non-examples of the desired behavior (What would the behavior look/sound like? What would the behavior not look/sound like?) Examples Non-examples Going down the slide feet first. Climb up the slide or going down head first. Swinging forward and backward. Twisting in the swing. Waiting to take your turn. Pushing others out of the way. Keeping the mulch on the Throwing mulch. ground. Yelling or pushing others. Using positive communication. Continuing to play after the Line up quickly and quietly. whistle. Step 4: Practice/Role Play Activities (Students NEVER model non-behaviors!) 15 Model expected behavior (I do): Teacher(s) model or read following scenarios. The teacher discusses the examples. Susie climbed up the ladder to go down the slide saying get out or my way and pushing several students. She then goes down the slide head first. Johnny sees Billy sitting on the buddy bench and goes over and asks him to play football. They hear the end of recess whistle and takes the football to the toy bin and line up in their correct places quickly and quietly. Peggy and Barbie are arguing over who can swing. Barbie puts up her hand and Peggy continues to argue. So, Barbie walks away with Peggy close behind. Barbie immediately goes to a teacher. Lead students through behavior (We do): Teacher(s) present(s) the following scenarios. Students will discuss their observations. George grabbed a handful of mulch and threw it up into the air. When it came down it landed on Pete’s head. So Pete picked up a handful of mulch and threw it back at George. George picked up a handful of mulch and then put it back down. He remembered the expectations for the playground. He then walked over to Pete, who was sitting on the buddy bench, to ask if he wanted to play. Test to ensure students understand behavior (You do): With a peer, students are asked to come up with their own positive scenario. Student groups will act out appropriate, respectful behavior for their scenario. Teacher and other students will provide feedback to peer groups. Have a student demonstrate how to go down the slide, swing on the swings, and line up according to our expectations. Step 5: Provide opportunities for practice Public recognition for students who display our school’s expectations on the playground. Teachers regularly model playground expectations. Booster lessons will be provided when expectations are not met. 16 Lesson Plan to Address Behavior During Dismissal Step 1: Identify the desired behavior and describe it in observable, measurable terms. Respectful behavior: Students will use a #1 voice. They will listen to teacher on duty. Responsible behavior: Students will walk to your bus line and keep hands, feet and belongings to yourself. Students need to know where they need to be. Ready behavior: Students will have all belongings. Students will be ready to move. Safe behavior: Students will face forward and listen to bus leaders and teachers. Step 2: List a rationale for teaching the behavior (Why is it important?) It is important to be respectful during dismissal because there are times when the teacher on duty needs to relay important directions. It is important to be responsible during dismissal because students need to go directly to their bus lines, so there is less confusion at the end of the day. It is important to be ready during dismissal because students do not have time to go back to their classroom for forgotten belongings. Students also need to be ready to move so that the bus lines move quickly out of the building. It is important to be safe during dismissal because students need to safely get on their correct busses for their ride home. Step 3: Identify examples and non-examples of the desired behavior (What would the behavior look/sound like? What would the behavior not look/sound like?) Examples Non-examples Using #1 voice Yelling Walking Running Hands and feet to yourself Diddle-Daddling/moving too slowly Knowing where your bus line is located Pushing/shoving Standing in a line/facing Wandering around the hall/not forward sure where to be Paying attention to the Standing in a group movement of the line Turning around with your back Leaving belongings in your to the front of the line backpack Running back to your classroom Listening to directions given by for forgotten items teacher on duty Talking when a teacher is giving directions Step 4: Practice/Role Play Activities (Students NEVER model non-behaviors!) Model expected behavior (I do): Teacher(s) model or read following scenarios. The teacher discusses why second scenario is an example of respectful behavior.) Students will be actually going through dismissal procedures. Buses will be called, students will walk to their appropriate bus line. Teacher will acknowledge the students 17 who are using all of the above responsible, respectful, ready and safe behaviors. Teacher will demonstrate non-examples of behaviors and discuss why it is important not to do these things. **Upstairs dismissal should follow hallway behavioral expectations when leaving the building. Lead students through behavior (We do): Teacher(s) present following scenario. Students will discuss why second scenario is an example of respectful behavior. Students will again practice dismissal procedures, this time being aware of and trying to demonstrate all appropriate behaviors. Test to ensure students understand behavior (You do): With a peer, students are asked to come up with their own scenario. Student groups will act out appropriate, respectful behavior for their scenario. Teacher and other students will provide feedback to peer groups. Small groups of students will be asked to come up with their own scenario. Student groups will act out respectful, responsible, ready, and safe behaviors. Teacher and other students will provide feedback. Step 5: Provide opportunities for practice Booster lessons Tickets will be given for respectful, responsible, ready and safe behaviors 18 Lesson Plan to Address Behavior in the Hallway Step 1: Identify the desired behavior and describe it in observable, measurable terms. Respectful behavior: Students will use a #0 voice, quiet feet, and stop for the National Anthem. Responsible behavior: Students will walk with a purpose. Ready behavior: Students will keep their hands at their sides and face forward. Safe behavior: Students will keep their hand on the rail when going down the stairs, take one step at a time, and stay to the right. Step 2: List a rationale for teaching the behavior (Why is it important?) It is important to be respectful when in the hallway so anyone can be heard if needed, so others classes are not interrupted, and to observe the National Anthem when playing. It is important to be responsible when in the hallway so we are always walking with a purpose. It is important to be ready when in the hallway so that student’s hands are to themselves and they are facing forward to be ready for anything that may come in front of them. It is important to be safe when in the hallway so students are not injured and transitions are successful by keeping to the right. Step 3: Identify examples and non-examples of the desired behavior (What would the behavior look/sound like? What would the behavior not look/sound like?) Examples Non-examples Not talking Talking Walking w/Quiet feet Dragging your feet Stopping for the National Continuing to walk when the Anthem National Anthem plays Walking with a steady pace to Walking slow the next place Hands not at your side Hands at your side Looking around and behind one Facing Forward another Hand on rail when using the Not using the rail stairs Jumping down the stairs Taking one step at a time when Going from left to right or being going down the stairs on the left when transitioning Staying to the right when from place to place transitioning from place to place Step 4: Practice/Role Play Activities (Students NEVER model non-behaviors!) 19 Model expected behavior (I do): Teacher(s) model or read following scenarios. The teacher discusses why second scenario is an example of respectful behavior.) Teacher will walk down the hallway modeling examples of desired behaviors and discuss why these behaviors are desired. Then teacher will walk down the hallway modeling non-examples and discuss why these behaviors are not desired. Teacher will then walk down the hallway modeling desired behaviors and discussing why these behaviors are desired. Lead students through behavior (We do): Teacher(s) present following scenario. Students will discuss why second scenario is an example of respectful behavior. Students will model desired behaviors and discuss why this scenario is desired. Test to ensure students understand behavior (You do): With a peer, students are asked to come up with their own scenario. Student groups will act out appropriate, respectful behavior for their scenario. Teacher and other students will provide feedback to peer groups. Step 5: Provide opportunities for practice Weekly scenarios Publicly recognizing students who display respectful behavior Teacher regularly models respectful behavior 20 Lesson Plan to Address Behavior On the Bus Step 1: Identify the desired behavior and describe it in observable, measurable terms. Respectful- Students will maintain an appropriate level of speech, #2 voice. The bus will be kept free of wrappers and papers. Responsible- Students will keep, hands, feet, and belongings to themselves. Ready- Students will get seated quickly and will remain seated during the ride. Safe- Students will demonstrate safety by remaining seated at all times, and face forward. Step 2: List a rationale for teaching the behavior (Why is it important?) It is important for students to arrive home safely from school. By implementing these simple strategies/expectations students will limit the distractions to the bus driver. A clean environment should be left after students depart the bus. This shows respect and responsibility. Step 3: Identify examples and non-examples of the desired behavior (What would the behavior look/sound like? What would the behavior not look/sound like?) Examples Non-examples Seated Standing #2 Voice Yelling Use trash can Leaving items on the floor Face forward Turning around Stay seated until your stop Switch seats at a bus stop Keep hands to yourself Touching another person, taking their Getting seated quickly items. Walking past your seat Step 4: Practice/Role Play Activities (Students NEVER model non-behaviors!) Model expected behavior (I do): A bus will be brought in and students will be escorted to the bus. Once at the bus, the presenter will go through examples and non-examples of proper bus behavior. Presenter will present the information, repeating the phrase respectful, responsible, ready, and safe. Presenter will notice and acknowledge positive behaviors as students are presenting them on the bus. Lead students through behavior (We do): A brief trip in the school bus will take place. Students will participate in a simulation on the way out and the presenter/teacher and a few students will get off the bus and properly get on the bus to reinforce proper entering/exit behaviors. Students will be prompted to notice how the entrance and exit take place. Test to ensure students understand behavior (You do): While on the way back to the school, students will be informed that we are practicing our bus dismissal. Students on the left hand side of the bus, as facing the front of the bus, will be allowed to dismiss first. Students on the right hand side will practice waiting and we will depart. Step 5: Provide opportunities for practice 21 In order to practice proper bus behavior, booster lessons will be offered, as needed, once data shows that students are in need of a refresher. Teachers can model these strategies while on field trips with students. 22 Lesson Plan to Address Behavior in the Nurse’s Office Step 1: Identify the desired behavior and describe it in observable, measurable terms. Students will show respect by using a #1 voice and be patient while nurse is occupied. Students will be responsible by having a pass or teacher permission to visit. Students will be ready by entering and sitting in an empty chair and only use the beds if instructed to do so. Students will be safe by remaining seated and walking while entering and exiting the office. Step 2: List a rationale for teaching the behavior (Why is it important?) It is important to be respectful so that the nurse can help all students in a timely manner. Step 3: Identify examples and non-examples of the desired behavior (What would the behavior look/sound like? What would the behavior not look/sound like?) Examples Non-examples Quietly walk in and sit down in a chair. Interrupt the nurse while on the phone Patiently wait for the nurse to talk to or with another student. you. Run in the office and jump on the beds. Step 4: Practice/Role Play Activities (Students NEVER model non-behaviors!) Model expected behavior (I do): Teacher(s) model or read following scenarios. The teacher discusses why second scenario is an example of respectful behavior.) Matt fell and scraped his knee and the teacher gave him permission to go to the nurse’s office. He walked in and sat down in a chair (quietly, because the nurse was on the phone.) Lead students through behavior (We do): Teacher(s) present following scenario. Students will discuss why second scenario is an example of respectful behavior. Julie got a paper cut in Art class and went to the nurse without permission. She went in yelling she needed a band-aid immediately. Julie has a bad headache and asked for permission to go to the nurse. She walked in and sat down quietly in a chair. Test to ensure students understand behavior (You do): With a peer, students are asked to come up with their own scenario. Student groups will act out appropriate, respectful behavior for their scenario. Teacher and other students will provide feedback to peer groups. Have students role-play or discuss possible scenarios when they would need to go to see the nurse. Step 5: Provide opportunities for practice 23 Lesson Plan to Address Behavior While using Laptops Step 1: Identify the desired behavior and describe it in observable, measurable terms. Students will show respect by being patient, taking turns, shutting down completely and closing the cart door. Students will show responsibility by carrying it with 2 hands, walking with the laptop, reporting damage and only taking your assigned computer, replacing and plugging in, wrapping the mice correctly and using headphones correctly. Student will show they are ready logging in quickly, using only their account and staying on task. Students will be safe by walking slowly with laptops, using 2 hands to carry and staying on the appropriate sites. Step 2: List a rationale for teaching the behavior (Why is it important?) It is important to be respectful with the laptops so that all students have a chance to use them and so the laptops don’t get damaged. It is important to be responsible while using the laptops so they don’t get damaged and they can be used in the future. It is important to be ready so that students can get to work right away and accomplish their task. It is important to be safe so that students do not get injured and the laptops do not get broken. Step 3: Identify examples and non-examples of the desired behavior (What would the behavior look/sound like? What would the behavior not look/sound like?) Examples Non-examples Student gets a laptop, shuts the cart door Student gets laptop, runs down the hall, and walks quickly to their classroom, while does not get their assigned number, and holding the laptop with 2 hands. pushes others on the way. Student logs onto the laptop and quickly goes to the correct site designated by their teacher. Student uses peers’ account and password, is off task (playing games or looking up other things), turns off computer by pushing the button. Step 4: Practice/Role Play Activities (Students NEVER model non-behaviors!) Model expected behavior (I do): Teacher(s) model or read following scenarios. The teacher discusses why second scenario is an example of respectful behavior.)
