“University of Memphis Study”

A Native American boy was talking with
his grandfather. “What do think about the
world situation?” he asked. The
grandfather replied, “I feel like wolves are
fighting in my heart. One is full of anger
and hatred; the other is full of love ,
forgiveness, and peace.” “Which one will
win?” asked the boy. To which the
grandfather replied, “the one I feed.”

Behavior Matters

Approximately one third of students have emotional
problems that act as a barrier to their benefiting fully from
instruction, resulting in poor academic progress.

Teachers are forced to expend time and resources on
behavioral issues that take away from classroom
effectiveness and the academic instruction of all students.

Recent updates to state and federal special education
guidelines are changing the way schools are expected to
support students with problem behavior and the scope of
interventions are expanding to meet behavioral needs.

Why are Behavior Systems Overlooked?
 Multiple Initiatives Compete for Time
 School Systems Not Designed to Address Behavior
 Frequency and Severity of Behavior Problems Can
Overwhelm Schools
 Public Demand High for Academic Accountability

Obstacles to Implementing Behavioral Systems
 Belief: “Why do good things for bad kids?”
 Emphasis on Academics
 Failure to make the behavior and academic
connection
 The blame game

A Mandate for Change – RTI and PBIS
 Legislative mandates to Implement RTI and
PBIS (NCLB/IDEA)
 Most states have adopted RTI and PBIS as
best practices for early intervention
 Federal grants and entitlements now
requiring evidence of implementation

The Importance of Tier 1
• Provides a foundation of proactive and preventative
best practices at the classroom and schoolwide level
• Builds capacity for ongoing school improvement
• Aligns behavioral and instructional expectations
• When implemented with fidelity, reduces the likelihood
of students requiring tier 2 and 3 interventions.
• Improves the quality of teaching and learning

For Discussion….
• What are your existing district or school
practices in aligning your behavioral
expectations and behavioral interventions
for students?
• What are the commonly held beliefs about
student behavior in your school or district
(spoken or unspoken)?

A Shift in Thinking
• Shifting from the problem is within the child to the problem is
due to a breakdown in the system or the teaching and learning
interaction.
• Shifting away from categorical or exclusionary thinking to
solving the problems of individual students.
• Shifting from a placement or punishment orientation to a
teaching and supporting orientation.
• Shifting from determining punishment, pathology or disability
to determining what needs to be done for the student.

PBIS vs. Traditional Approach
Traditional Discipline:
Positive Behavior Support:
•Focuses on the
student’s problem
behavior
•Replaces undesired
behavior with a new
behavior or skill
•Stops undesirable
behavior through the
use of punishment
•Alters environments
•Teaches appropriate skills
•Rewards appropriate
behavior

Reasons to Implement A Behavior
Support System
1. Academic and behavioral goals are not being met.
2. There are high rates of problem behaviors, leading to a
loss of instructional time.
3. Problem behaviors are not handled consistently at the
school level.
4. Families and the community are dissatisfied with the
school’s current behavior policies.
5. Teachers are concerned about student behavior.
