26. Targeted Classroom Practices PreCorrection Chronic problem behaviors are anticipated and precorrected. 4:1 Ratio/ Praise I acknowledge student positive behavior at least 4 times more often than I acknowledge student problem behavior.

27. CLASSROOM SYSTEMS TEAM IMPLEMENTATION & SUPPORT

28. Supporting Effective Classroom Practices Most Evidence-Based Classroom Practices are not challenging to implement…. and are pretty easily described and understood The Challenge is using the practices consistently over time, doing the little things consistently…. “Building Habits”

29. The Power of Habit: Why we do what we do in life and business Charles Duhigg Video Intro #2 on NY Times Bestseller List on March 18 th 2012

30. Integrating “Power of Habit” in to the Classroom How can we support teachers to: Understand the “Habit Loop” Build habits to use Evidence-based Classroom practices

31. Next Steps Teach staff the “Habit Loop” and how to change/ develop good habits Identify the Targeted Classroom Practice & provide examples = 5 to 1 Ratio, PreCorrection 1) Brief presentation of practice 2) Time to individualize practice to fit your classroom, context & needs 3) Brief presentation of Reminders & Supports to use your practice 4) Time to develop an individualized Plan for Support

34. Follow Along in the 5 to 1 Ratio Guide

37. Definitions of Acknowledgement of Positive & Problem Behavior Acknowledgment: responding to student behavior (verbal or gesture) in a way that provides attention for positive/desired behavior or problem/non-desired behavior. The focus of the acknowledgement determines whether it is a positive (response to desired behavior) or problem acknowledgement (response to non-desired behavior), while the tone and verbage should always maintain respect for the individual, the determining factor is the type (desired v. non-desired) of the behavior being acknowledged.

38. Why Acknowledge Desired Behavior? Reinforce the teaching of new behaviors Behavior is likely to become a habit and recur in the future only if demonstrating it has been beneficial Harness the influence of kids who are showing expected behaviors to encourage the kids who are not Strengthen positive behaviors that can compete with problem behavior Improve school climate Create positive interactions and rapport with students

39. Why Increase Positive Acknowledgements? After withdrawing praise from a classroom, off-task behavior increased from 8.7% to 25.5% In classes where teachers provided less than 65% positive statements, the percentage of students reporting that they like school decreased over the course of the school year In classes where teachers provided more than 70% positive statements, students reporting that they like school remained high across the school year BECKER, ENGLEMAN, & THOMAS, 1975

40. 5:1 Ratio Pay attention to What you Want to See Acknowledge positive behavior 5 times more often that you respond to negative behavior Keep it genuine; not the same for all kids Negative interactions are not wrong and are sometimes necessary; the key is the ratio There is a ceiling effect at 13 to 1 – but we are at very little risk of achieving this in schools; more often we are at 1:1 or even more negatives than positives

41. Research on Praise & Acknowledging Positive Behavior Praise has the strongest research, with increases shown in: Students’ correct responses Work productivity and accuracy Academic performance On-task behavior and attention Compliance, positive comments about self Cooperative play Simonsen, Fairbanks, Briesch, Myers, & Sugai, 2008

42. Critical Features of Acknowledgement Acknowledgment of Positive Behavior (praise) is most effective if it is immediate, specific, sincere, varied, student referenced  Immediate  Specific: explicitly describes the desired behavior performed  Sincere: credible and authentic  Varied: varied word choice, varied academic and behavior praise, whole group, small group and individual  Student referenced: compares student performance to previous performance and does not compare students to others; acknowledge effort

43. When Acknowledging Positive Behavior Identify the specific behavior being acknowledged Link the behavior to one of the SW-Rules GOOD EXAMPLE  “Wow, thank you for helping to clean up the spill, that was very Responsible of you” NOT AS GOOD  “Thank you, good job!”

44. Procedural Steps for increasing Positive Acknowledgement Ratio 1) Identify challenging times, routines and behaviors that occur throughout the day 2) Identify desired behaviors to focus on praising, particularly during challenging times 3) Explicitly teach students to engage in desired behaviors

45. Procedural Steps for increasing Positive Acknowledgement Ratio 4) Identify a range of phrases, gestures, methods for acknowledging targeted desired behaviors, particularly identify ways to replace corrections with acknowledgement of proximal peers for desired behavior 5) Monitor for desired behaviors & acknowledge individuals or group of students immediately following desired behavior 6) Implement personal prompts and monitoring to encourage replacement of corrections with acknowledgments

46. Increase Positive Feedback & Decreasing Negative ID a specific problem behavior you would like to see less of and define the opposite of this behavior Teach & re-teach the expected/desired behavior Provide “precorrections” in advance to set up positive behavior Ignore the problem behavior and “catch” the students meeting expectations w/ specific positive feedback Coaching Classroom Management, 2006

48. ELEMENTARY 60 min x.09/min = 5.4 praise/hour; 1 every 11 minutes MS 60 min x.04/min = 2.4 praise/hour; 1 every 25 minutes

50. Step 1: Identify Challenges & Positive Acknowledgements

51. Your Turn Take a few minutes to Complete Step 1 of the Worksheet Remember, we’d like to collect a copy of your worksheet at the end of the training today to plan for support

52. FLIP THE RATIO Trading Negative Acknowledgements for Positive

53. Your Turn Take a few minutes to Complete Step 2 of the Worksheet Share your strategies with a partner

54. Set up Systems to Increase Positive Acknowledgement Good Behavior Game  T-chart  Teach behavioral expectations  Students earn points for positive behavior  Teacher gets points for negative behavior  Total points at end to determine if “reward” is earned Hand out Acknowledgement Tokens or Tallies for positive behavior  Individuals or Pre-arranged Groups in the classroom Students Teacher

55. Ways to Encourage & Monitor your Ratio Post a visual reminder to praise students in area viewed frequently Praise in Pairs: After praising one student, find another student exhibiting similar behavior to praise Acknowledge creatively – use gestures (thumbs up, OK sign, clapping, nod, high five) tangibles (stickers, stars), points toward whole class or individual reward, calling parent to report student success

56. PLAN FOR SUPPORTING IMPLEMENTATION

57. Self Monitoring Training on classroom management practices alone does not result in changes or improved practice Self-monitoring offers an effective, efficient strategy for improving implementation of classroom practices (Simonsen, MacSuga, Fallon & Sugai, 2013)

58. Self Monitoring Strategies for Self-Monitoring Index Card Tearing (long side for positive, short side for negative) Hash marks on tape on your arm or pant leg Golf Counter Move Pennies or paperclips from one pocket to other based positive & negative acknowledgements

59. Step 3: Self-Monitoring Plan

60. Your Turn Take a few minutes to Complete Step 3 of the Worksheet Make sure to Identify meaningful& feasible supports  Identify your strategy for Self-Monitoring  Develop Peer Strategies for support – you can discuss with a peer

61. Team & School-wide Supports Team Supports (e.g. Dept., Grade Level, PLC)  Make Classroom improvement a regular part of meetings and activities  Begin meeting w/ 2 minute check:  Check-in, share ideas & give feedback to:  Encourage implementation  Check-in, problem solve, enhance implementation School-wide Supports  Reminder on Morning announcements  Regular review/check-in at staff meeting  Rewards for implementers Recognize your Buddy Recognize someone you observed engage in the practice  Daily or weekly implementation checks  via email link  Put sticker on staff board to rate implementation

62. Group Discussion What school-wide strategies would be helpful for you in supporting your implementation?  Regular reminders over announcements?  Staff meeting review & sharing?  Collect implementation data?  Daily email, survey monkey?

87. GOOD BEHAVIOR GAME

88. Good Behavior Game as a “Universal Behavioral Vaccine” Approximately 20 independent replications of the GBG across different grade levels, different types of students, different settings, and some with long-term follow-up show strong, consistent impact on impulsive, disruptive behaviors of children and teens as well as reductions in substance use or serious antisocial behaviors. Embry, 2002 The Good Behavior Game (GBG), a universal classroom behavior management method, was tested in first- and second-grade classrooms in Baltimore beginning in the 1985–1986 school year. Followup at ages 19–21 found significantly lower rates of drug and alcohol use disorders, regular smoking, antisocial personality disorder, delinquency and incarceration for violent crimes, suicide ideation, and use of school-based services among students who had played the GBG. Kellam et al., 2011

93. Teaching Behavioral Expectations The Most Important Part

94. Teacher Responsibilities Be enthusiastic about the game Set students up to be successful (PreTeach & PreCorrect Expectations) Catch students doing Good Behavior (the expected behaviors) frequently Keep students honest by providing corrections when necessary Follow through with Rewards Every time you play at first; can make less frequent later

95. Good Behavior Game Play it every day Can play it 2-3 times per day As students begin mastering behavior for certain routines… try different times of day
