Episode 16 Innovative Approaches to Discipline with PBIS Principles

PBIS Journey to Genius

Unlock the secrets of innovative student behavior management with Minerva Elementary's reflection room, guided by the wisdom of PBIS principles. Dianne Ferrell and I, Diane Ruff, explore how the calm of reflection can transform student behavior, sharing our "three Rs" strategy that empowers students to reflect, reset, and return to class with a fresh perspective. Our conversation dismantles the myth that PBIS is synonymous with leniency, shining a light on constructive, instructional consequences that pave the way for meaningful behavior change. Inspired by insights from the "Expert Instruction: The Teach by Design" podcast, we reveal how to craft consequences that build, rather than break, a student's ability to thrive in the classroom.
Experience the power of consistency across educational environments, as we delve into the necessity of setting clear behavior expectations for students, underpinned by the mantra "be safe, responsible, and respectful." We offer practical tactics to manage classroom behavior, with a focus on the importance of timing and approach to behavioral instruction. Our reflection room is not just a space—it's a tool for tackling the underlying causes of misbehavior, helping students shift from their "animal brain" to their "thinking brain," and fostering lasting change. Engage with us through email and our social media platforms for more resources, including our PBIS Tips of the Week, as we guide you on this journey to harnessing the genius within every student.
