Baker Middle SchoolPositive Actions Win! School-Wide (PBIS) Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports Program2013 – 2014 School Year
Positive Reinforcement • PBIS is designed to focus on reinforcing positive behaviors. • All teachers should give positive attention and verbal praise to students for positive behaviors. • In order for SW-PBIS to be fully implemented, schools must have an easily recognizable, easy to use school wide system to provide immediate reinforcement to all students. • Baker Middle School will use the “Positive Acts Win” or “PAW” ticket system to reinforce positive behaviors
Introducing The “Positive Acts Win” Ticket System • Last year we intentionally advertised the phrase “Positive Acts Win” through the video announcements. • Our 7th and 8th grade students are familiar with the term “Positive Acts Win”,but they do not know about the acronym “PAW” or the ticket system • Teachers will need to spend time in the classroom introducing the “Positive Acts Win” / “PAW” ticket system as a follow up to the behavior matrix lessons
What can the students do with a “PAW” Ticket? “PAW” tickets can be used to purchase 4 different things. • “PAW” Tickets can be redeemed in the office for a snack. • This reinforcement is good for the students that need immediate feedback. There are some students that will want to cash their tickets in immediately and this reinforcement is for them. • The snacks will include: candy, chips, fruit snacks, etc.
What can the students do with a “PAW” Ticket? • “PAW” Tickets can be redeemed in the office for a “Blazing Performer” Buffalo Wild Wings Gift certificate. • This reinforcement is also good for the students that need immediate feedback. This reinforcement also allows our students to be recognized in our community for their positive behaviors at school. • Buffalo Wild Wings donated 1000 gift certificates for us to use with our PBIS system.
What can the students do with a “PAW” Ticket? • “PAW” Tickets can be redeemed in the office for a chance to win in our Monthly Lunch Raffles. • This reinforcement is good for the students that would like to take a chance at a larger reinforcement prize. Students can buy as many raffle tickets as they would like with their “Paw” Tickets • On the last Friday of every month there will be a drawing in the lunch room for 5 lucky winners to receive a price in each of the lunches. 15 students in total will receive prizes. • Prizes will include: Ear bud headphones, iPod cases, iTunes gift cards, Baker Bob Shop gift cards, front of the lunch line passes, snacks and more!
What can the students do with a “PAW” Ticket? • “PAW” Tickets can be redeemed in the office for a chance to win a “Golden Ticket” to our End of the Semester Pizza Party/Activity/Movie Night! • This reinforcement is good for the students that would like to take a chance at our largest reinforcement prize. • Towards the end of each semester there will be a private drawing in the office for 50 lucky winners to receive a “Golden Ticket” that allows them to attend this amazing event! • The gym will be open for games, a movie will be played in the cafeteria, and pizza will be served!
Bobcat of the Month • This year Bobcat of the Month will be a part of our “Positive Acts Win” SW-PBIS reinforcement Program. • At the end of each month, the top 5 school wide “PAW” Ticket winners will be identified as our Bobcats of the Month. • Their pictures will be on display for the entire year as an individual month winner, similar to employee off the month displays. • The Bobcats of the Month will also receive a golden ticket allowing them to attend the End of the Semester Pizza Party/Activity/Movie Night!
Lets Get Started! • Print off several copies of the “PAW” tickets and start reinforcing our students for positive behaviors. • Remember that this is a tool that you can use instead of focusing on the negative behaviors in your classroom by writing referrals. • The goal of this program is to develop relationships, reinforce positive behavior, improve student behavior and reduce the amount of referrals we have to write.
