It’s a RAP
Courtesy, Care, Cooperation, These are the 3 C's of Comet
Conduct. Practice them daily, be the
best that you can be. Work together, learn a lot, have some fun this week!
School Wide Incentives• When a staff member sees a class
demonstrating the 3C’s—the class receives a compliment.
• Once the class has filled their compliment chart they take it to the office.
• Once the jar is filled, there is a slide show highlighting these students.
The quickest way to change behavior….in anyone.
Point out what they are doing right!
PBIS means:Being Proactive instead of reactive.
o We brainstorm where problems might occur:• In the car• Family room• Bathroom
o We brainstorm when problems might occur:• Transitions• Meal times• Academics/homework
o We brainstorm who might have problems:• Certain children together• Certain children when they are overtired
We want to be one step ahead of the children.
How can you catch your kids being good…• …in the grocery store
• …in the car
• …getting ready for bed
• …playing with their friends
