1. Presented by: Kate Howell Summer Institute 2013

2. Do you TWEET? BISD has a new hashtag (#) that we will use anytime any one of us engages in professional learning or wants to connect with fellow BISD educators #educ8bisd

3. Don’t forget: You can copy-paste this slide into other presentations, and move or resize the poll.

4.  I can use proactive strategies to prevent misbehavior  I can correct misbehavior using a positive approach NORMS

5. The CHAMPS Approach says…

6. What CHAMPS is… ∞A guide to the decisions teachers can make to build & implement a proactive & positive approach to classroom management ∞Continuous improvement process ∞Common language among staff ∞Acronym

7. What CHAMPS is NOT… ∞A canned program ∞A rigid set of procedures Make it work for you!

8. Today’s Topics ∞ Teach Expectations ∞ Interact Positively ∞ Correct fluently

9. TEACH EXPECTATIONS When expectations are clear, students never have to guess how you expect them to behave

10. What are the expectations for…? ∞Instructional activities ∞Transition times ∞Rotation classes ∞Special occasions

11. C - Conversation H - Help A - Activity M - Movement P - Participation S - SUCCESS! [or signal]

12. Conversation ∞Can students talk with each other? ∞If so, about what? ∞To whom? ∞How many can be involved? ∞How long should conversation last?

15. Help ∞How should students get questions answered during this activity? ∞How should students get the teacher’s attention? ∞If the students have to wait for help, what should they do while waiting?

17. Activity ∞What are the students expected to be doing? ∞What is the expected end product of the activity? ∞What should students do after finishing the activity?

20. Movement ∞Can students get out of their seats during this activity? ∞If yes, acceptable reasons include: o Pencil o Restroom o Drink o Hand in/pick up materials ∞Do they need permission from you?

23. Participation ∞What behaviors show that students are participating fully and responsibly? ∞What behaviors show that a student is not participating?

25. Independently Working

28. Success! Clear and consistent expectations lead our students to success! Another option for “S” is… Signal Decide on a signal to use to get students’ attention & teach them to respond by focusing on you in silence

29. Possible signals ∞Raise your hand in a swooping, half-circle motion ∞Teacher says, “Class” Students say, “Yes.” (any type of chant/repeat) ∞Chimes or bell

30. What signals do you use in your classroom?

36. What are some routines that would benefit from being “CHAMP”ed?

37. 1.Choose a routine to CHAMP 2.Work with a partner to complete the CHAMPS worksheet 3.Use the guiding questions to help you Let’s CHAMP! Share out!

38. INTERACT POSITIVELY Provide frequent, non-contingent attention to build relationships AND positive feedback to acknowledge students’ efforts to be successful.

39. “ Noncontigent attention involves giving students time and attention not because of anything they’ve done, but just because you notice and value them as people.” (Alberto & Troutman, 2006; Carr et. al., 2000)

40. Build positive relationships ∞Greet students at the door ∞Show an interest in students’ work ∞Invite students to ask for assistance ∞Have conversations with students ∞Make a special effort to greet or talk to any student you’ve recently interacted with regarding a misbehavior

41. The 3 “H” Rule Hand shake Hug High five

42. Provide feedback POSITIVE ∞Accurate ∞Specific & descriptive ∞Contingent upon the target behavior ∞Age-appropriate ∞Given immediately ∞Make it fit your style! Make it GENUINE!!

43. Acknowledge progress and success with Celebrations! ∞Make it more than verbal ∞Make it unpredictable

45. Plan to interact at least 3 times more often with each student when he is behaving appropriately than when he is misbehaving

46. Easy Middle Difficult

47. Employ a class wide motivation system ∞What is my goal for this system? ∞Is it appropriate for my classroom? ∞How will I maintain, modify, and fade this system?

48. Ideas for Motivation Systems ∞Table teams ∞Classroom money/tickets ∞Mystery Behavior ∞Spell a word to earn reward

49. Something to think about… If your classroom is so rigid and strict, your students will be more focused on not getting into trouble instead of the learning.

50. CORRECT FLUENTLY Pre-plan how to correct misbehavior so your responses are fluent, brief, calm, and immediate

52. frequently If your classroom has MORE than 2-3 students who misbehave frequently … ∞Organize your classroom routines & procedures ∞Design & implement your classroom management & discipline plan ∞Build positive relationships with your students ∞Implement class-wide motivation system

53. Effective Correction ∞Unemotional & calm ∞Brief ∞Specific ∞Consistent ∞Fluent ∞Respectful

54. PLAN AHEAD ∞How will you respond to minor, moderate, or severe misbehavior? o Have a catalogue of options available to choose from Categorize the misbehavior, then respond appropriately using a strategy from your catalogue o Make it fit the student and the situation

55. REFLECT ∞Do classroom variables (physical setting, schedule, etc.) affect the student’s inappropriate behavior? ∞Does the student fully understand your behavioral expectations? ∞What purpose/function does the misbehavior serve for the student? What does the student get out of it?

56. Reasons for Misbehavior ∞Lack of awareness ∞Lack of ability or skill ∞Attention-seeking ∞Purposeful/habitual misbehavior

57. INTERVENE Analyze the function of chronic misbehavior and design an individualized intervention

58. 3 Questions 1.What are you doing? 2.What are you supposed to be doing? 3.What are you going to do about it?

59. Other ideas ∞Time owed ∞Restitution ∞Time out (recovery time) ∞Decide when to write discipline referral

60. So, how do you stand on today’s topics? ∞ Teach Expectations ∞ Interact Positively ∞ Correct fluently

61. New BISD professional development survey – Less than 5 questions! – Open-ended rather than multiple choice – Reflective… We do not learn from experience…we learn from reflecting on experience. John Dewey
