  13. Positive Reinforcement Of Good Behavior What happens when students/classes exhibit good behavior throughout the school day? • Behavior Sticks (“Caught Being Good” Sticks) • Breakfast Tokens • Koala Pride Club • Positive Office Referrals & The Book of Honor

  14. “Caught Being Good” Sticks Every week, classes and individual students will receive Popsicle sticks for displaying appropriate hallway behavior, respect for teachers and other students, and good citizenship. These Popsicle sticks will be given by all members of the Sue Cleveland faculty and staff. The only exception is that teachers cannot give sticks to their own classes. Koala Pride Club members will collect class envelopes, and a Discipline Committee member will count the sticks to determine grade-level winners. Grade-level winners will receive a banner to display outside their classrooms and recognition on the Broadcast. *The Discipline committee will maintain a graph across from the cafeteria so that students can track the amount of Popsicle sticks they receive during the year. Classes will be recognized on Awards day for getting the most Popsicle sticks for the nine weeks. We will also give them a prize, such as stickers or pencils for winning for the nine weeks.

  15. Breakfast Tokens During morning arrival, students in 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade who exhibit excellent behavior in the hallways and/or gym may receive a breakfast token from those on duty. These tokens are koala bear cut-outs that allow students to move to the front of the breakfast line.

  16. Koala Pride Club WHAT IS THE “KOALA PRIDE CLUB”? This is a special club created to recognize and support students who consistently portray good character “koalaties”. WHO IS IN CHARGE? Mr. Hampton and Mrs. Dunn will act as leaders during club meetings. WHO IS ALLOWED TO BE IN THE CLUB? Students from the 3rd 4th qnd 5th grades will be nominated by their classroom teachers based on the following criteria: citizenship, responsibility, academic progress, and behavior. WHAT WILL HAPPEN DURING CLUB MEETINGS? Club meetings will be held every other Friday. The club will complete a different service project each grading period such as a food drive, beautification project around school, or a project to help a particular grade level (collecting items needed in the classroom for special projects during the year).

  17. Positive Office Referrals & The Book of Honor • Students who exhibit exceptional behavior can earn a Positive Office Referral (POR). • Teachers & Administrators can write a POR for a student. • Any student who receives a POR, will be asked to sign the “Book of Honor”, which is on display in the atrium. Students will also receive recognition on the Broadcast.

  18. Research Our ideas and proposals are research based. School-wide behavioral management systems are most effective when the entire staff supports and follows through with all procedures. A good plan also includes not only discipline policies, but positive reinforcement strategies, as well. REFERENCES Cheney, D., Barringer, C., Upham, D., & Manning, B.(1995).
