Tier 1 – Start with Philosophy
1. You control your actions
2. Your philosophy informs your actions

Relationship! Relationship! Relationship!
“I didn’t realize the power of hello…”

Evidence-Based Classroom Management
1. Maximize structure in your classroom.
2. Post, teach, review, monitor, and reinforce a small number of positively stated expectations.
3. Actively engage students in observable ways.
4. Establish a continuum of strategies to acknowledge appropriate behaviour.
5. Establish a continuum of strategies to respond to inappropriate behaviour.

Maximize structure in your classroom.
Develop Predictable Routines:• Teacher routines: volunteers, communications, movement,
planning, grading, etc.• Student routines: personal needs, transitions, working in groups,
independent work, instruction, getting materials, homework, etc.
Design Environment:• Arrange furniture to allow easy traffic flow.• Ensure adequate supervision in all areas.• Designate staff and student areas.• Seating arrangements (groups, carpet, etc.)

Post, teach, review, monitor, and reinforce a small number of positively stated expectations.
• Establish behavioural expectations/rules.• Teach rules in context of routines.• Prompt or remind students of rule prior to
entering natural context.• Monitor students' behaviour in natural
context & provide specific feedback.• Evaluate effect of instruction - review data,
make decisions, & follow up.

Establish behavioural expectations…
• A small number (i.e., 3-5) of positively stated expectations.
• Publicly post the expectations.
• Should match School Wide Expectations.

Teach rules in context of routines…
• Operationally define what the rules look like across all the routines and settings in your school.
• One way to do this is in a matrix format.

Teach rules in context of routines…
Teach expectations directly. • Define rule in operational terms-tell students what the rule
looks like within routine.• Provide students with examples and non-examples of rule-
following within routine.
Actively involve students in lesson-game, role- play, etc. to check for their understanding.
Provide opportunities to practice rule following behavior in the natural setting.
![Page 12: Managing Student Behaviour *must be in presentation mode to follow links Creating an Environment of Respect and](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f335503460f94c50411/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Prompt or remind students of rule prior to entering natural context.
• Use pre-corrections, which include "verbal reminders, behavioral rehearsals, or demonstrations of rule-following or socially appropriate behaviors that are presented in or before settings were problem behavior is likely" (Colvin, Sugai, Good, Lee, 1997).
“The single most dynamic influence on the brain’s chemistry may be positive feedback, which is essential for the development of good self-concept . . . ”
Robert Sylwester, Emeritus Professor of Education,University of Oregon
![Page 13: Managing Student Behaviour *must be in presentation mode to follow links Creating an Environment of Respect and](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f335503460f94c50411/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Monitor students' behaviour in natural context & provide specific feedback.
Active Supervision (Colvin, Sugai, Good, Lee, 1997):• Move around• Look around (Scan)• Interact with students
Provide reinforcement and specific praise to students who are following rules.
Catch errors early and provide specific, corrective feedback to students who are not following rules (think about how you would correct an academic error).
![Page 14: Managing Student Behaviour *must be in presentation mode to follow links Creating an Environment of Respect and](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f335503460f94c50411/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Praise should be…
• Contingent: occur immediately following desired behaviour.
• Specific: tell learner exactly what they are doing correctly and continue to do in the future.
"Good job" (not very specific)"I like how you are showing that you’re listening by looking at me" (specific)

Striking a balance:
We want our proactive measures to heavily outweigh our reactive strategies, though we need both.
Proactive vs Reactive
![Page 16: Managing Student Behaviour *must be in presentation mode to follow links Creating an Environment of Respect and](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f335503460f94c50411/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Reacting to a crisis
1. Be empathic.• Whether or not you think their feelings are justified,
those feelings are real to the other person. Pay attention to them.
2. Clarify messages.• What are the feelings behind the facts? Ask reflective
questions and use both silence and restatements.

3. Respect personal space.• Stand at least 1.5 to 3 feet from an acting-out person.
Invading personal space tends to increase the individual’s anxiety.
4. Be aware of your body position.• Standing eye-to-eye sends a challenging message.• Standing one leg-length away and at an angle off to the
side is less likely to escalate the individual.

5. Ignore challenging questions.• Redirect the attention to the issue at hand. Answering
challenging questions often results in a power struggle.
6. Permit verbal venting when possible.• Allow the individual to release as much energy as possible
by venting verbally. If you cannot allow this, state directives and reasonable limits during lulls in the venting process.

7. Set and enforce reasonable limits.• State limits and directives clearly and concisely. When setting
limits, offer choices and consequences to the acting-out individual.
8. Keep your nonverbal cues nonthreatening.• The more an individual loses control, the less your words are
heard. Be aware of your gestures, facial expressions, movements, and tone.

9. Avoid overreacting.• Remain calm, rational, and professional. Your response will
directly affect the person’s behavior.• Remember step 1 to continue to empathize.
10. Use physical techniques only as a last resort.• Use the least restrictive method of intervention possible. Physical
techniques should be used only when individuals are a danger to themselves or others.
• Physical interventions should be used only by competent/trained staff. Any physical intervention may be dangerous.
