Introduction:

“If you improve a teacher's self-esteem, confidence, communication skills or

stress levels, you improve that teacher's overall

effectiveness across the curriculum. “– Elaine MacDonald

Assess everything that needs to be done.

•Do you need a behavior change? Survey the administration, staff and students.

•Assess the existing behavior within the building by making a triangle for your school, both academically and behaviorally.

•Will you have staff “buy in”

Make an OutlineUtilizing the BOQ’s is a great way to keep on track throughout the process.

Create Effective Teams:Make a “Who’s Who” in your school:

ESD team

Social workers

Special Education Team

Guidance Counselors

School Psychologist

Teachers with known “good” behavior classrooms

Teaming Structure:Is everyone familiar with the BOQ’s?

Is there a continuous fidelity check?

How do you hold people accountable for processes?

How to involve everyone - without too much involvement…

Develop a “School-wide” agreement or definitive behavior statement (Mission).

List of Expected BehaviorsMajor infractions:Minor infractions:

Have teams work together to decide what behaviors should be classroom managed vs. administration managed

Communication:Parents •Back to school night, brochures, parent handbook•Publish information on the website Staff•Monthly meetings, precise agendas for meetings, staff handbook•Conduct staff development sessions to familiarize all parties with the program Students•Matrixes visible and taught•Area paws charts•Demonstrating correct behaviors•Assemblies (recurring)

"Efficiency is doing things right;

effectiveness is doing the right

things" - Peter F. Drucker

Stick to your policies

•“Fair is not always equal”•Create a reward system (intrinsic/extrinsic/low cost•Develop a “tracking system” for the rewards•Create a reward committee for students and staff•Create lesson plans or use existing ones •Create or use a developed system to track all school behavior to be able to compare data

Bad Breaks: Sometimes you just have a student or combination of students

that do not respond to the “typical” redirection in the day to day teaching of student expected behaviors.

Use other schools suggestions for classroom implementation lessons as well as create your school’s own videos or pledge to involve the staff and students in the process.
