PBIS
This week’s whole school focus is on our 'How we Speak to Others'. Teachers will be explicitly teaching the routine to children on the expected behaviours when children are interacting with each other. 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
Practice - Practice 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.
Please discuss this routine with your child/ren emphasizing that they should use the toilets at school just as they do at home.
