Primary vs. Precision Statements
Solvable (Precise) Problem There are more ODRs for aggression on the playground than last year (average of 3 ODRs per day). These are most likely to occur during first recess, with a large number of students, and the aggression is related to getting access to the new playground equipment. • • • What? How often Where? Who? When? Why? more ODRs for aggression average of 3 referrals per day on the playground a large number of students first recess Get access to the new playground equipment
Solvable (Precise) Problems Question Description q. What q. How Often q. Where What problem behavior is occurring? q. Who How many students and which sub-groups are more likely to engage in the problem? q. When Are there times of day or days of week when the problem is more likely to occur? q. Why In the context above, are students trying to access or avoid something? Is it about attention, tasks/activities, or resources (items)? Is this an ongoing problem, new problem, old problem, smallgroup problem, school-wide (big) problem? Are there locations where the problem is more likely to occur?
To identify problems with precision, we must be able to answer some basic questions with our data (what, when, where, who, why).

Format: Survey ratings of features in place (selfassessment). About 30 mins per tier. Completed by: Team members with the coaches. Walk through tool completed by external coach. When? Annually
Tiered Fidelity Inventory (SWPBIS TFI 2. 1) PBIS Assessments Walkthrough Tool
TFI Format Tier 1: 15 items - Team Subscale – 2 items - Implementation Subscale – 9 items - Evaluation Subscale – 4 items
TFI Reports Use the Scale, Subscale and Item reports to guide action planning.
Cultural Responsiveness Field Guide • Outlines ways to embed equity efforts into SWPBIS through alignment with core PBIS components • https: //www. pbis. org/re source/pbis-culturalresponsiveness-fieldguide-resources-fortrainers-and-coaches See Section II: TFI Cultural Responsiveness Companion on pg. 6
TFI Cultural Responsiveness Companion Administration Guidelines: • Complete the TFI • Use the TFI Cultural Responsiveness Companion – Review whole companion – Consult items from the TFI that are in place (to build on strengths) – Assess items where the TFI indicates need for improvement – *Coaches may want to preselect 2 -5 items for the team to review at the next training day • Incorporate into action plan
Example: 1. 9 Feedback & Acknowledgement CR Concept: SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENT SWPBIS Big Idea: Attending to and acknowledging desired student behaviors increases the likelihood of these behaviors recurring. CR Elaboration: Teams involve students, families, and communities in the development and use of acknowledgement systems in order to create systems that are meaningful and authentic and consider the culture of the students they serve when designing recognition systems. Non-Examples: Some student enrollment groups have inequitable access to acknowledgement. Examples: Teams actively seek feedback from students, families, and the community about preferences for acknowledgement and perceptions of the current systems at least annually
Activity: Self-Assess with TFI & CR Companion • Work individually (or with partner coach) for 45 min • Find the Tiered Fidelity Inventory and the TFI Cultural Responsiveness Companion – Consider bookmarking/downloading • Review/self-assess using the TFI • Review the TFI Cultural Responsiveness Companion – Identify 3 -5 items to review with your team at the next training day – Identify any questions you have regarding use of this tool
Activity: Review TFI Cultural Responsiveness Companion • Group discussion 10 -15 min • What questions do you have regarding use of the TFI or Cultural Responsiveness Companion tool? • Anticipated barriers?

COACHING PBIS IN THE CLASSROOM (CHAPTER IV)
Evidence-Based PBIS Practices in Classroom 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. IV. A. i 10. Minimize crowding & distraction Maximize structure & predictability State, teach, review, & reinforce positively stated expectations. Provide more acknowledgement for appropriate than inappropriate behaviors. Maximize varied opportunities to respond. Maximize active engagement. Actively & continuously supervise. Respond to inappropriate behaviors quickly, positively, & directly. Establish multiple strategies for acknowledging appropriate behavior. Generally provide specific feedback for errors & corrects.
Basic Principles of Implementing PBIS in Classroom • Consider good teaching as one of the best behavior management tools • Apply 3 tiered prevention logic to the classroom setting • Link classroom to school-wide expectations • Teach social skills like academic skills – Define, model, practice, monitor and acknowledge and adjust • Build systems to support sustained use of evidence based practices IV. A. ii
Effective Academic Instruction Effective Behavioral Interventions Continuous & Efficient Data-Based Decision Making Systems for Durable & Accurate Implementation IV. A. ii Positive, Preventative School Culture (SWPBIS)
Considerations for Coaching PBIS in Classroom: Coaching Role • Serve as a link to local and state resources • Serve as a positive role model • Support teachers’ use of data for decision making • Support teachers’ understanding of behavior basics • Ensure implementation of the essential components of SWPBIS in the classroom IV. B. i
(adapted from Blase, Van Dyke, Fixsen, Duda, Horner and Sugai; 2009) Considerations for Coaching PBIS in Classroom: Coaching Relationships • The coaching role is supportive not evaluative • Coaching responsibilities include holding teachers accountable for outcomes in their classrooms • Coaching relationships should be based on mutual respect and include an open dialogue between teachers and coaches • Informal observations and self-assessments are effective ways to begin discussions with teachers about classroom practices – Remember teachers respond to positive feedback too. Begin with what is going well and build on teacher’s strengths when suggesting changes to classroom practices – When making suggestions, keep them specific and concrete with a focus on implementation • Provide teachers opportunities to share successes IV. B. ii • Whenever possible, coaching should involve providing “Conceptual” feedback regarding the “Big Ideas” of the practice or intervention
Considerations for Coaching PBIS in Classroom: Developing Systems • Facilitate a network of mentors among grade levels or across buildings • Support teachers in self-monitoring their own implementation strategies • Directly provide resources and supports to facilitate ongoing professional development at faculty meetings • Use technology tools to provide a central location for information regarding professional development, implementation strategies, and networking related to implementation • Work with building administration to build support for struggling teachers or staff. IV. B. iii
Guidelines for Coaching PBIS in the Classroom Coaching Individuals or Small Groups q Use informal observations and teacher self assessments to gather data on the essential elements of classroom SWPBIS q Provide feedback for teachers on all essential elements of classroom SWPBIS q Provide positive feedback to teachers on elements and systems that are already in place before giving feedback on changes that need to be made q Take a problem solving approach, and listen to teacher concerns and reported barriers to implementation. q Connect teachers who need support with teachers who are successfully implementing SWPBIS systems q Provide technical assistance to teachers for data collection and interpretation q Focus on Tier one classroom systems before developing tier 2 or 3
Guidelines for Coaching PBIS in the Classroom Developing Systems of Support q Facilitate communication between the school based team and individual teachers q Fade direct teacher support by facilitating connections between the building team members and teaching staff q Work with building administration to facilitate networks of teachers working on implementing similar strategies q Provide teachers with self monitoring tools and supports q Use technology to share information and facilitate teacher communications within and across schools q Work with building administrators to develop supports for teacher-toteacher observations and mentoring q Develop specific classroom support systems for new teachers
Activity: Update Action Plan • Work individually (or with partner coach) for 5 min • Update your action plan to enhance your ability to coach PBIS in the classroom.
COACHING PBIS IN NONCLASSROOM SETTINGS (CHAPTER V)
Essential SWPBIS Components in Non-Classroom Settings • Positive expectations and routines taught and encouraged • Active supervision by all staff (scan, move, interact) • Pre-corrections and reminders • Positive reinforcement V. A. i
Features of Active Supervision in Non-Classroom Settings • Positive adult-student contact should occur at high rates • Positive reinforcement should be provided at high rates • Correction procedures (rule violations) should be efficient and effective • Movement should be continuous, systematic, comprehensive across setting • Scanning should occur so all areas of the setting are assessed on a regular basis V. A. ii
Roles & Responsibilities of Coaching PBIS in Non-Classroom Settings • Serve as a link to local and state resources • Positively model active supervision practices • Support collection of data on student behavior and fidelity of implementation of active supervision components • Provide positive reinforcement, precorrections, and reminders on staff use of effective behavior practices for non-classroom settings • Link practices and systems for non-classroom settings to classroom and school-wide • Work with building administrators and leaders to ensure implementation of the essential components of SWPBIS in all settings • Work with building administrators and leaders to ensure adequate training support and supervision of supervisors in non-classroom based settings.

3. SWPBIS PRACTICES AND SYSTEMS IN NONCLASSROOM SETTINGS (Chapter III)
Problematic Non. Classroom Settings III. A
Examples III. A An elementary school principal found that over 45% of their behavioral incident reports were coming from the playground. A high school nurse lamented that “too many students were asking to use her restroom” during class transitions. A middle school secretary reported that she was getting at least one neighborhood complaint daily about student behavior on & off school grounds. Over 50% of referrals occurring on “buses” during daily transitions.
Definitions and Intervention Considerations III. B
Non-Classroom Settings • Particular times or places where supervision is emphasized • Where instruction is not available as behavior management tool • Examples: – Cafeteria, hallways, playgrounds, bathrooms – Buses & bus loading zones, parking lots – Study halls, library, “free time” – Assemblies, sporting events, dances III. B
Non-Classroom Settings: Basic Management Considerations Practices • Physical or environmental • Teach directly expected arrangements behaviors and routines in context • Routines & expectations • Staff behavior • Student behavior III. B • Actively supervise (scan, move, interact) • Pre-correct and remind • Positively reinforce expected behavior
Supervision Self-assessment YES or NO III. D
Supervision Self-Assessment 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Did I have at least 4 positive for 1 negative student contacts? Did I move throughout the area I was supervising? Did I scan the area I was supervising? Did I positively interact with most of the students in the area? Did I handle most minor rule violations quickly and quietly? Did I follow school procedures for handling major rule violations? Do I know our school-wide expectations (positively stated rules)? Did I positively acknowledge at least 5 different students for displaying school-wide expectations?
