PBIS Journey to Genius

Discover how a heartfelt tale of triumph over fractions can change the way we approach education. This episode brings you the inspiring voice of Autumn Thomas, a fifth-grade educator with a decade-plus of experience, who joins Dianne Ferrell and me to share her story and strategies for harnessing the power of personalized acknowledgment to inspire a love for learning in students. We discuss Autumn's transformative 10-day reward system and dive into the magic of consistent positive reinforcement in shaping not only behavior but the future of our children.
Ever wondered how to capture a student's academic journey in a way that bolsters their confidence and drive? We've got you covered with our exploration of student leadership binders. These aren't your ordinary school folders; they're a celebration of personal growth, a repository of achievements, and a roadmap for future success. We unpack how these binders, filled with star charts, leadership certificates, and even special programs like NBA (Never Been Absent), become treasured keepsakes that spur students to set and surpass their goals.
Wrapping up, we take a moment to marvel at the intersection of growth mindset principles and the PBIS framework, highlighting the game-changing role of leadership binders in recognition systems. Autumn's insights are pure gold, and we are eager to help educators everywhere tap into these strategies. So join our passionate education community, connect with us for resources and support, and let's work together to create an environment where every student has the opportunity to shine.
