Why Are Values Important

Creating Virtual Classroom Expectations

Students and staff need to know what behaviors are acceptable and expected in all different contexts throughout the school. In order to support students’ academic and social success, specific school wide and classroom expected behaviors must be clearly posted and explicitly taught, and retaught. Differentiate instruction of expected behavior through a variety of resources and regularly practice with students to ensure generalization across settings.

In developing either class-wide/individual motivational systems, consider using a Student Preference Assessment to determine what may serve as possible reinforcers for appropriate student behavior.

The links below provide resources for Preference Assessments:

• Forced Choice Reinforcement Inventory
• Student Reinforcement Survey

 

The purpose of the Supporting & Responding to Behavior is to summarize evidence-based, positive, proactive, and responsive classroom behavior intervention and support strategies for teachers. These strategies should be used classroom-wide, intensified to support small group instruction, or amplified further for individual students. These tools can help teachers capitalize on instructional time and decrease disruptions.

Provide corrective, actionable feedback to teach the appropriate behavior. A correction procedure should be:

1. Specific, using language from your classroom and/or school-wide behavior matrix
2. Private, when possible
3. Delivered in a respectful manner, keeping in mind tone, volume and cadence.

When inappropriate behavior occurs, remind student of the expected behavior and model that behavior. Provide many opportunities to practice the new skill.

3. Behavior Monitoring - Strategies to monitor behavior and academic progress might include cards checked after each class regarding behavior, self charting of behaviors, strategies to provide feedback to the student, etc.

4. Appropriate In-School Alternatives - In-school alternative in which academic tutoring, instruction related to the student’s behavior such as social skills, and a clearly defined procedure to return to class as soon as the student is ready is provided.

5. Community Service - Required amount of time in community service in school system or in the community.

6. Counseling - Students required to participate in counseling.

7. Problem Solving and Collaboration with Parents/Caregivers

The Interim Behavior Response Plan (IBRP) supports school teams in the development and implementation of an immediate and interim plan for preventing and responding to behaviors.

The cycle of acting out behavior follows a distinct sequence. Each stage of the IBRP addresses the student’s behavior as well as staff responses (suggested strategies) that should be used to support the student in remaining or returning to calm.

7 Core Circle Guidelines Video Module

Community Building Circle 101 Video Module

Provides a proactive systematic approach for schools to build a positive school culture that
promotes School-Wide Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports. Restorative practices emphasize community building and commit to restoring positive relationships. Restorative practices promote and strengthen positive school culture. It allows school staff to commit to the creation of an environment focused on instruction and positive behavioral support which leads to academic success for all students. School communities implement school-wide expectations and restorative practices in unison with stakeholder groups to ensure successful positive school climates, stronger school communities, productive interpersonal relationships, and tools to address student misconduct.

The District adopted the School Climate Bill of Rights in May 2013 and committed to implementing restorative practices in all schools by 2020.
