Clarifying Lesson 1: Select Schoolwide Expectations |
Schools have curricula to guide the teaching of each and every subject. No teacher would be expected to teach math, reading, or the sciences without one. The curriculum ensures that all teachers are working in harmony toward the same end goals. And yet for the social behavioral development of our students, much has been left up to individual teachers and staff to determine what social behavior will be encouraged, allowed, or disallowed. Without a curriculum to guide what we want our students to achieve socially, little consistent teaching and monitoring can occur. With a proactive and instructional approach to discipline, we first develop a social behavioral curriculum.
By the end of this lesson, participants will select three to five schoolwide expectations that define success for all students and are applicable in all settings (e.g., respectful, cooperative, safe, kind). |

Clarifying Lesson 2: Create Schoolwide Matrix |
This lesson describes the process of further defining your schoolwide expectations and creating your matrix of specific behaviors/rules for every setting in your school. The specificity should be clear for teachers and students to know exactly what is to be done. Here you are answering the question, “What does [respect, responsibility, best effort, etc.] look like in all settings, in our [hallways, cafeteria, playground, commons, etc.] and in our classrooms?”
By the end of this lesson, participants will create a matrix of specific behaviors/rules to further clarify each schoolwide expectation for every setting. |

Clarifying Lesson 3: Develop Procedures in Non-Classroom Settings |
This lesson describes the process for defining non-classroom procedures. Clearly defined procedures allow staff to teach and supervise consistently and predictably. When students can predict the events throughout their school day, they are more likely to be engaged and less likely to display problem behavior.
By the end of this lesson, participants will determine procedures for each of the school’s non-classroom settings (e.g., arrival/departure, hallways, cafeteria, recess, restrooms, assemblies, etc.). |

Lesson 2: Develop Lesson Plans to Intitially Teach |

Lesson 3: Develop Booster Lessons |
After you have developed acquisition level lesson plans for your social behavioral curriculum, it is important to consider ways to help students maintain the newly acquired skills. When students show fluency in their use of social behaviors from your matrix, teaching may transfer to more periodic maintenance or “booster” lessons. This lesson describes the process of developing “booster” lessons for maintenance of expected behavior.
By the end of this lesson, participants will create a set of booster lessons for maintenance of expected behaviors. |

Lesson 4: Teaching Schedule |
Teaching social behavior must be ongoing to increase the likelihood that all students will display appropriate behavior in all settings. This lesson will guide SW-PBS Leadership Teams in the creation of an annual teaching schedule that allows for lessons to be taught in response to data indicated needs.
By the end of this lesson, participants will develop and share a schedule for teaching expected behaviors. |

Lesson 1: Defining office-managed and staff-managed behaviors | When it comes to discipline, it does not make sense for educators to use the criminal justice model first, before employing what they were professionally prepared to use—teaching and mentoring approaches.”1
This lesson describes the importance of defining what behaviors should be managed by staff members using an instructional approach, and what behaviors are serious enough that they warrant an office referral and should be addressed by school administrators. Creating common definitions of staff-managed (or minor) and office-managed (or major) unexpected behaviors is essential to creating the consistent response to unexpected behavior that is the hallmark of SW-PBS implementation. |

Lesson 2: Developing an Office Discipline Referral form and clarifying procedures surrounding its use | Once you have listed and defined what constitutes office-managed behaviors, it is important to develop a process to document behavior incidents. Documentation not only provides some legal protections, it also provides data that can be used to improve climate and behavioral outcomes for students (more information on using discipline data to improve climate and behavioral outcomes for students can be found in the DBDM for behavior PLM, the MO SW-PBS Handbook and The Tier 1 Implementation Guide). This lesson describes the importance of having an effective office discipline referral (ODR) form and a process for using it consistently. The essential data fields necessary for an effective ODR form will be discussed along with the importance of clarifying procedures surrounding its use. Staff agreement on office-managed behaviors and data collection will create consistency for all stakeholders.
By the end of this lesson, participants will develop An Office Discipline Referral Form and clarify procedures surrounding the use of the Office Discipline Referral Form |
