❤️❤️Anyone else wonder why we are still having PTOs buy prizes for the PBIS school store and justifying the 💩 out of it!?
.
❤️❤️I know that was intense but I am so bummed that these Pinterest strategies are still happening!
.
❤️❤️I am sad that our justification sounds like, "My kids LOVE them!" and "They work!" It means we aren't asking the right questions! I ask kids daily and they have unanimously said they feared and disliked them! And when we say they work, my follow up question is, "At what cost?"
.
❤️❤️You know what I'm going to say next..... Once we know better, we can do better! Kids are counting on us to have the best information and to understand their temperament and the strategies that are healthy and will help!
.
❤️❤️Do you ever wonder if kids are disappointed in us because we think behavior games are the solution to the troubles they are experiencing!?
.
❤️❤️Let's show them that they can count on us!

PBIS/dojo made me frustrated felt like some other kids would get lot of points just for not destroying property or screaming insults and stuff and then the standards i had to meet i wasnt sure what they were and it just felt like worst behavior got rewarded but when i had a meltdown they didn't always be understanding of it

Interested in learning steps to take away from PBIS to help effectively and efficiently reteach expectations and promote self regulation efficiently with large classes.

Sigh. My district just started with the store this year. I think the kids went once. I teach Preschool and haven't sent anyone there...but it's "success" was just discussed at a recent meeting. I agree with you!

Even when others are using PBIS programs. Stop and be the first to make the change then lead by example as your students are more regulated and your class out ‘performs’ those who use PBIS❤️

I am a first year teacher and my grade level decided long before I got there to use Class Dojo points as incentives and punishment. I can’t not do what they do in this instance. If I have to use this system, how can I do it the most effectively?

I went to get one of my speech students right when the class "store" was opened, and I asked if he got anything. He said no, and that he hadn't earned any money yet. It freaking broke my heart. He has behaviors relating to a disability, and that I guess means that he has to miss out on the awesome class store time, for no conscious fault of his own. I'm so mad on his behalf.
