3. Common Language
Misbehavior
Inappropriate Behavior

Not meeting expectations
We need to think of these
as Behavior Errors

5. Common Language
Consequence
Response
Outcome
We need to think of these as
Corrections in response to
the Behavior Errors
6. Correction vs. Consequence
When you treat student misbehavior
as an instructional opportunity, you
give students the chance to learn
from their mistakes.
Sprick, CHAMPS, 2009
7. Classroom Management Plan vs.
Individual Intervention
“Rule of Three”: If more than
three students are demonstrating the
same misbehavior, the management
plan needs to be adjusted to address
the misbehavior (use
STOIC Checklist).
9. What is the outcome of an Effective
Corrective Consequence?
1. Changes the future occurrence of the
behavior.
2. Allows for instruction to continue.
3. Treats students with dignity and
respect.
4. Keeps students motivated to exhibit
positive behaviors.
5. Maintains the positive relationships
between students and staff.
Editor's Notes
Essential Elements of SW anc CW PBIS
Math example. What do we do when a student gets a math problem wrong? Do we punish them for it? No, we tell them to correct it or we help them correct it. If everyone gets it wrong, what do we do? We reteach it. Just like everyone doesn’t grasp the math concept the first time around, it is the same with behavior. Response to behavior errors is to correct.
DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN A CORRECTION AND A CONSEQUENCE. When a student finally “gets it” we acknowledge it, they get a good grade. They get it correct! It is the same for behavior. We want to acknowledge when we see positive behavior or when we see students exhibit the expected behavior. We correct it when we don’t see expected behavior.
Fluently – least amount of interruption to the flow of your instruction
Reacting emotionally can impact all of these things, but especially inconsistency. On a bad day we may overreact, but on a good day, we may underreact. For example, your class is focused and working and that one student who hums when he works doesn’t really bother you right now so you ignore it. The next day your class is a little louder, your lesson didn’t go as planned, things are more chaotic, and you tell the student if he doesn’t stop humming you’re going to have to send him out. OR you consistently let your 4th period students come in late to class after lunch and don’t really acknowledge it, but that one day you had a rough class before, you decide you’re going to lock them all out and not let them in. Emotions are impacting the way you respond, which leads to inconsistency and could reinforce the behavior errors. “I know I have to be on time for Schrumpfs class because she’ll keep me after if I’m late, but I know I can be late to Russells class because she doesn’t keep track of tardies. MODEL the behavior we expect to see: teacher is late, but marks kids tardy. Teacher yelling at her kids in the hallway for being loud in the hallway.

Changes doesn’t necessarily mean extinguishes, in the case of severe chronic misbehavior. We might be looking at a reduction in the frequency and hopefully the intensity.
