Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports (PBIS)

Whole-school universal preventive intervention

Applies behavioral, social learning, organizational behavioral theories

Targets general populationRequires a shift from punitive to preventive

Big IdeaWe often assume green zone green zone is in place

everywhereBut what about the classroom?How is PBIS being used in the classroom to

prevent yellow zone behaviors?By fortifying the green zone, we can reduce

need for yellow zone

Today’s Questions• How important is classroom

management?

• How do we determine the needs in the classroom? How can teachers ‘grow the green’?

Classroom behavior support practices blend with school-wide systems

As a team, how will you work to make all classrooms effective settings?

As a coach, how can you support classroom teachers in the development of effective classroom settings?

Page 6: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

Question #1

How important is classroom management?

Page 7: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

What the Research Says about Classroom Management

Linked with positive student outcomes (academic and behavior)

Increased risk of preventing more serious problems among at-risk kids

Supports all students in the prevention of possible current and future behavior problems.

Strong management signals to kids that the class is a safe place to learn.

Well managed classrooms are rated as having more positive climates.

(Aber et al., 1998; Mitchell, Bradshaw & Leaf, 2009)

Page 8: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

What the Research says about Classroom ManagementGreater student engagement (Morrison, 1979)

Friendlier peer interactions and helpful behaviors, more attentive, less aggression (Susman, Husten-Stein & Friedrich-Coffer, 1980).

Teachers experience greater efficacy (Woolfolk, 2002)

Increased student achievementCreative and flexible instructional deliveryTeacher longevity

Page 9: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

Evidence based practices in classroom management Maximize structure in your classroom.

Routines, Environment Post, teach, review, monitor, and reinforce

a small number of positively stated expectations.

Teaching matrix for the classroom Actively engage students in observable

ways. Think beyond the worksheet

Establish a continuum of strategies to acknowledge appropriate behavior.

Contingent and specific Establish a continuum of strategies to

respond to inappropriate behavior. Error correction, planned ignoring, time away from

activity

(Simonsen, Fairbanks, Briesch, & Myers Sugai, in preparation)

“Good instruction and effective classroom management are often viewed as two entirely separate entities when, in fact, without good instruction, you are making classroom management much more difficult”

-Wendy Reinke

Page 11: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

How do we determine the needs in the classroom? How can we help teachers ‘grow the green’?

Question #2

Page 12: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

Data is your friend

Page 13: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

Use Data to Examine Classroom SystemHow do you know PBIS is in place?Collect data

Are rules being followed?If there are errors,

who is making them? where are the errors occurring? what kind of errors are being made?

Summarize data (look for patterns)Use data to make decisions

Classroom Check-upA consultation model designed to increase

behavior managementConduct observationsAssess critical classroom variables

Positive to negatives Number of disruptions per 5 minutes Percent of on-task kids

Provide feedbackCollaboratively design individualized intervention

plan Teachers self-monitor/ and are receive ongoing

feedback and support

Classroom Check-Up Observation Form Step 2

For the next 5 minutes, focus on a different student every 5 seconds.

Record a “+” symbol to indicate on-task or engaged behavior and a “–” symbol to indicate off-task behavior. When each student has been observed, begin the progression again.

Continue until 5 minutes has elapsed.

What did the student do ?(Be specificMeasurable /observableWhat, when, who, )

How do I feel? What do I usually do?What do I say?What do I look like/sound like?

As a result, what does the student do?

What is maintaining the behavior?Why is it happening?

Student shoved his book on the floor in the direction of his neighbors feet when I asked the class to begin working independently on their math assignments

I feel startled at first and then I get anxious

I usually send him to the office to conference w/the principal. I tell him, “Go straight there – do not pass go…”

He spends the remainder of math class waiting for the principal to see him.

AvTI believe he escaping to the office to avoid independent work in math.

Adapted from Cooperative Discipline- Linda Albert-

AA =Access adult attention; AP =Access peer attention; AC =access to choice; AI =Access to item; AvP = Avoid peer attention; AvA =Avoid adult attention; AvT = avoid task

Increasing Positive Interactions1 (negative) to 3 (positives)

Remind yourself of the “debt”

Specific vs. general praise

Identify specific times to provide praiseBefore certain lessons – your reminder

During transitions – students’ reminder

Page 28: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

Increasing Positive InteractionsUse individual conferences to provide

specific praise“Search” for reinforceable behaviorsReduce attention to misbehavior and

increase time rewarding positive behaviorsIncrease positive interactions and use

noncontingent positives

Page 29: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

Decreasing Negative InteractionsDetermine if aspects of the environment

(physical setting, schedule, organization, social situation) are contributing

Use “pre-corrections” to prevent the misbehavior

Praise other students for doing things the “right way”

Page 30: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

Strategies for InterveningProximity

Adult presence and supervisionGentle verbal reprimand

Short, very brief disruption, clearState positive rather than negative (accusative)

DiscussionMost effective if discreet and occurs later

If not, you leave class waiting; misbehaving student can get rewarded; student will likely be defensive; your own frustration

Page 31: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

Strategies for Intervening (cont)

Family ContactBe objective and descriptive, not judgmental Suggest that family discuss the situation later and

communicate expectations Don’t imply child should be punished

Create partnership with parent to support child

HumorBest when used selectively with older studentsAvoid sarcasm, embarrassing, or making joke of

child or situation

Page 32: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

Strategies for Intervening (cont)

Praise someone elseDescriptive praise, but avoid embarrassmentBest for younger children who are eager to please

RestitutionRepair damage but don’t hold grudgeReparation is not punishment

Use sincerityHow their behavior is affecting others (& you)Keep emotions in check

Page 33: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

Response cost……a procedure in which a specific amount ofavailable reinforcers is contingently withdrawn following a response in an attempt to decreasebehavior. Response cost is often used with

tokeneconomy programs. The response cost must beless than the total amount of number of

reinforcersavailable (i.e., never go in the hole). Response cost procedures are often referred to as “fines.”

Response Cost-AKA The Chart!Top 5 cautions when using ‘the chart’5. Be sure to build in forgiveness4. Never let a student get ‘in the hole’3. Teach the behavior 2. Better to climb for positive behaviors (not really response cost)

Question #3

Page 37: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

The coach-teacher relationshipConsultation and feedback can be effective in increasing effective teaching practices (Sheridan & Welch, 1996)

Conduct observations of each otherTeacher teams

Invite feedback (during challenges)

Page 38: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

The coach-teacher relationshipIs there a system in place for teachers to ask

for help? Through the PBIS team? ‘Request for assistance’

Do teachers know about the system? Is it clear to the teacher that coaching is non-

evaluative?Is it clear to the teacher that the coach-

teacher relationship is confidential?

Page 39: Maryland Coach’s Meeting Dec. 8, 2009 Dr. Patti Hershfeldt Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Prevention of Violence

4 Types of Misbehavior (cont.)Ability

Lacks ability or knowledge about how to behave

What to do:Explore psychological or constitutional factorsHave capacity for insight?

If yes: Conduct lessons to develop skills and knowledge about appropriate behavior Model, reinforce, and provide feedback

If no: Make accommodations

4 Types of Misbehavior (cont.)Attention-Seeking

Engages in behavior to satisfy (unconscious) need for attention Chronic blurting out, excessive helplessness,

tattling, minor disruptions

What to do:Be careful about reinforcing the “problem behavior”Planned ignoringProvide attention and reinforce positive behavior
