    Classroom Management Behavior: Trauma-informed Classroom Management

    Today, we wanted to talk about our classroom management behavior systems and our foundational four, but we also wanted to talk a little bit about some initiatives, buzzwords, and some hot topics that are out there right now. The field of education often feels as if it has these ever shifting initiatives. One of the more prevalent conversations in the realm of professional development, a hot topic lately is trauma informed practices we hear about all the time. It's one of those buzzwords right now. For very good reasons.

    Classroom Management Behavior: Educator Spotlight_Sabrina Bramlet

    We are excited to be featuring one of our Idaho educators that has not only been recognized by her director, but also from us here at SESTA for her exceptional abilities to think functionally and support students and teachers. Today we have Sabrina Bramlett with us. We are so excited to be hosting this podcast today because one fun fact about Sabrina is that she participated in our Albi project last year. For those of you that don't know, Albi stands for Advanced Learner Behavior Institute. This project allowed for the SESTA coordinators to work really closely with some of the individuals throughout the state. Functional thinking was a huge component of Albi and I'm proud to say that Sabrina has become very skilled at thinking functionally.

    Classroom Management Behavior: Thinking Functionally

    Oftentimes a team may try one thing after another, or try a bunch of tools all at once, hoping that something's gonna stick.  But then nothing seems to work. The behavior doesn't change or maybe things even get worse. This can be referred to as the kitchen sink approach.  We're just going to try and throw everything at the behavior and hope that something sticks. Unfortunately this is usually pretty ineffective. It's important that interventions and behavior plans are tailored to the specific needs of the student, the context, and the function of the behavior. This doesn't mean that the tool you tried isn't effective or that the student is just bad. It just means that you haven't found the right match. The tool is effective in the right context, and the student will respond or the behavior will change when we find the tool that matches the needs of the student and the function of the behavior.  So this is why thinking functionally is so critical, prior to responding to a student's behavior, selecting interventions, or developing a behavior intervention plan. One of our favorite quotes, comes from Edward J Flanagan, who is the founder of Boys Town in Nebraska. And that is, "There are no bad boys. There's only bad environment, bad training, bad example, bad thinking." So as an educator, you have the power to change behavior. You just have to choose the right tool.

    Classroom Management Behavior: The Foundational Four

    Four main practices that help you to achieve getting the best behavior happening out of your students.  1.  Establish and teach classroom routines, procedures, and behavior expectations. 2.  Plan for positive interactions and reinforcement of appropriate behavior.  3. Develop a process for correction and consequences.  4. Set up opportunities for active student responding.  So these are the four things that we think are going to get you guys the most bang for your buck in terms of good behavior and classroom management practices.  When  implemented with fidelity, these foundational practices have significant impacts on increasing academic growth, increasing student engagement and participation, and reducing problem behavior in the classroom.
