Developing Lessons

Lessons of Expectations

• Students learn better ways of behaving by being taught social skills directly and receiving positive feedback about what they are doing correctly or

appropriately.

•After developing our Behavior Expectations Matrix, our staff was divided into groups and developed the lessons during a teacher in-service.

•We continue each year to edit our lesson plans and develop new ones to be taught to

our students.

Example of PBS Lesson

Context: HallwayExpectation: Be safe, Be respectful and Be responsibleSpecific Skill/Behavior: Walk on right side/Face forward/Stand in straight line/Walk silently/Keep hands behind your back/ Return to class promptlyGrade Level: Pre-K through 6Tell: The teacher tells students that today they are going to practice walking in the hallway to and from class. She will tell students that they will understand the behavior expectations for the hallway. The teacher will display actual photos on the mimio board showing children in the hallway. Students will discuss which photos show behavior that is safe, respectful, and responsible. The teacher will explain to students the importance of returning to class promptly.Show: Example – The teacher will demonstrate the correct way to walk in the hallway.Getting Close – The teacher will demonstrate proper hallway walking behavior with some minor mistakes, like whispering or putting hands by her side.Non-Example – The teacher will run down the hallway, talking loudly and butting in line.Example – The teacher will pick two students to demonstrate the appropriate way to walk in line.Practice: The class will practice walking to and from certain areas of the school following all of the expectations. Students can rate their classroom performance with a thumbs-up or thumbs-down and keep moving until they receive all thumbs up.Feedback: When the teacher or other staff members notice students being safe, respectful and responsible in the hallway, they should be recognized through the schoolwide system. Staff should also recognize students by telling them “Great job walking with your hands behind your back and staying in line! You’re being responsible and safe.”Reteach: The teacher will take small groups of students on a walking tour of the school, pointing out when students make correct decisions about how behave. The teacher can make students who are having trouble following the rules “hallway monitors” that need to watch for correct behavior in other students.Notes: Requires photos of correct and incorrect hallway behaviors.

Teaching/Re-teaching Schedule

-Table of contents was developed for the lessons stating when they needed be taught at the beginning of school and re-taught at the beginning of second semester.

-Focus of the week-specific skill to review for the week (we were announcing; last year emailed; need to go back to announcing because teachers aren’t announcing it to the students)

-Staff is accountable for teaching lessons.

-Teachers may also re-teach lessons as they deem necessary

-When students need additional lessons in the cafeteria; the principal or assistant principal teach them these lessons over to them.

Fired Up Awards When your class earns 20 flames they can earn any one

extra recesslunch in the classroom/outside

class dance party

Classes can earn flames for positive behavior as a class. Example: The whole class is walking in a straight line, hands are behind their backs, they are all facing forward, and no one is talking.The school nurse observes the class walking by her office and tells the teacher that they are doing a nice job of being safe, respectful, and responsible and deserve a flame.

To change things up and stay in the “loop” we have changed things up: We use to have flames that went along outside of the classroom:

Now we have flames on a poster Now we have flames on a poster board and we move with a clothes board and we move with a clothes pinpin
