• Reinforcing Expected Behavior
– Teaching alone is not enough, we also need to regularly Reinforce students for following expectations
• Improving the School Climate
– By increasing the number of Positive Interactions between staff and students we are improving the school climate.

Predicted whether 700 newlywed couples would stay together or divorce by scoring their positive and negative interactions in one 15-minute conversation between each husband and wife. Ten years later, the follow-up revealed that they had predicted divorce with 94% accuracy.

“Sergio, thank you for picking up Jackie’s book for her you are being very
Respectful. I want to recognize your good behavior with a Caught Being Good ticket,
I really appreciate it when you follow the school rules.”
• Tell the student what specific positive behavior they were doing and what rule it is tied to .

I came to school this morning with the lessons from yesterday fresh in my mind. I decided that I would focus on positive behaviors today, and try and let the negative go away on its own. I started the day with a quick carpet talk, telling students how proud I was of all their good work and asking them to continue for today. I addressed a few issues but then if was off to work. I called students to my desk, or leaned over to talk to them every time I saw something respectful or helpful.
At the end of the day, I sat at the carpet with them and asked if it was different today as compared to before I left. I had 20 hands fly up and the comments ranged from, “you were nice” to “you liked us.” Talk about immediate feedback. I am sure every day will have new challenges and one day is not forever, but I believe that the first step to having a great day is being positive.
George Kastanis, 3 rd grade teacher, John Still Elementary

• Should we track Positive Referrals?
– Track it broadly, not individually
• Are teachers going through enough referral pads?
• Are grade levels invested in the system?
• How many should be given out?
– Better to err on the side of more than less
– Need to be genuine & verbally paired w/ reason, not handed out indiscriminately

• Shouldn’t students be expected to do these things without being rewarded?
1) Sure, BUT students are bringing a varied set of experiences and skills to school, unfortunately some students may not get enough acknowledgment at home
2) How many of you feel you get acknowledged often enough for the work you do?
3) This system should not replace regular verbal praise and pats on the back for students …all this system provides in addition for most students is a small piece of paper
4) This system is as much to help remind the adults to catch kids doing the right thing in school… we get busy and too often get caught up focusing on predominantly negative behavior
