The document discusses key principles of Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) in the classroom. It explains that PBIS emphasizes preventing problem behavior by creating predictable environments, teaching appropriate behavior, and acknowledging appropriate behavior. It also notes that human behavior is functional, predictable, and changeable, so problem behavior can be "unlearned" or shaped into more desirable forms by teaching new behaviors. Motivation is influenced by both the expectation of success and the value placed on rewards, so effective behavior support provides interventions matched to student needs.

1. CHAMPS:
PBIS in the
Classroom
Understand Motivation
& How to Shape
Behavior

2. Behavior Management Principles
Emphasis is placed on prevention of
problem behavior through:
 creating predictable environments
 teaching appropriate behavior
 acknowledging appropriate
behavior
Effective teachers spend more time
promoting responsible behavior than
responding to irresponsible behavior

3. Understand How to Shape
Behavior
Human behavior:
 Serves a purpose
(it is functional)
 Is predictable
 Is changeable

4.  Human behavior is learned and can also
be unlearned, or shaped into a more
desirable form.
 Behavior can be taught and changed.
 When students behave irresponsibly, it’s
likely that they have not experienced the
benefits of responsible behavior.

5. Basics of Motivation

6. Motivation
 If a person exhibits any behavior
repeatedly, he or she is motivated to
exhibit that behavior
 Motivation for any behavior is a
complex mix of intrinsic and extrinsic
factors
 Level of motivation is a function of both
the expectancy of success and the
value of the rewards for that success

7. Theory of Motivation
 Expectancy Rate 10 x Value
Rate 10 = 100% Motivation
 Expectancy Rate 10 x Value
Rate 0 = 0% Motivation
 Expectancy Rate 0 x Value Rate
10 = 0% Motivation
Expectancy rate: the degree to which an individual expects to be successful
Value rate: the degree to which an individual values the rewards that accompany
that success

8. Positive Behavioral Interventions
and Supports
 Emphasis is placed on prevention of
problem behavior through creating
predictable environments, teaching
appropriate behavior and
acknowledging appropriate behavior.
 Providing behavior interventions and
supports matched to student need-
more intense behavior problems require
more intensive supports
