PBIS

This week’s whole school focus is on our Slow Zones. Teachers will be explicitly teaching the routine to children on the expected behaviours when children are walking through our Slow Zones. Teachers will follow the principles of PBIS (Positive Behaviours Interventions & Supports) by:

Teach - Teach the appropriate skills and behaviours

Model - Model to students the appropriate skills and behaviours

Practise - Practise by acting out role plays

Acknowledge - Teachers will acknowledge students when they demonstrate the behaviours by positive reinforcement

Correct - by extra social skill instruction where needed.
