  1. Positive Behavior Support for Deedee’s class Sarah Jeff Petzak Elizabeth Whaley Kayla Wiener

  2. What is PBS? • PBS stands for Positive Behavior Supports • It is a method used school wide, in the classroom, and on an individual basis • It focuses on the positive behaviors instead of pointing out negative behavior

  3. What does the Research say about implementing PBS?

  4. What does the Research say about implementing PBS?

  5. We chose a CONSTRUCTION theme for this 6th grade class

  6. Our System for Deedee’s Class • Create tickets for individuals and groups • A ticket is earned for each positive behavior • The ticket is given to the person/group, they put their name on the ticket, and then insert it in the paint bucket

  7. The tickets…. • There will be “kids at work” tickets for individuals and for groups • The tickets will be handed out throughout the day and placed in the bucket at the end of each period • Students cannot “hoard” tickets • Several tickets will be drawn weekly with a large prize at the end of the month • The teacher will earn tickets when the class does not follow direction

  8. The Rewards • We will periodically give a Motivation Inventory to assess possible rewards • Weekly rewards could include • Lunch with teacher • Ice Cream Passes • Homework Passes • Gift cards to Ritas, iTunes, Game Stop • Monthly rewards could include • Phillies Tickets • Larger amounts of gift cards

  9. School- wide achievement • When each class earns a specified number of tickets, a brick is added to the wall • When the city is built, the students will vote on a school-wide reward • Possible rewards include: • School-wide pizza party • School-wide ice cream party • School/grade wide field trip

  10. “Building a City” Bricks for Great Behavior

  11. Possible hang ups???? • child having a melt down because they do not receive a ticket • PBS becomes ineffective due to saturation • extinguished burst may occur - problematical behaviors increase • system may be familiar and stale to some students • reinforcer may not be desired by all students • tickets might not be tangible to students because they do not hold onto them • stealing or forging tickets • hording tickets • confusion about ticketing system • fighting over tickets • ticket trading

  12. How we resolved the hang ups • reminders to students that they will have numerous opportunities to earn tickets • modifications to make PBS new and fresh, such different style of tickets for different desired behaviors. • ignore inappropriate behavior and apply specific praise to positive behavior • use a twist with 'teacher tickets' to create a competition. Have students vote on which problematic behaviors are most disruptive to them. create more motivating tickets, colors, themes, etc...Make super tickets for better prizes so students can trade up • reinforcer inventory periodically • have students sign tickets and keep half of the ticket • specific hole punch that teacher stamps • change color of tickets weekly so tickets expire • posters and visual prompts • student looses all of their tickets. tickets will need to deposit immediately. • allow for ticket trading
