Feature Purpose:
Development of an
efficient process for identifying skills that need
to be taught, and a system to develop materials
needed for school-wide teaching of the target skill.
Feature Outcomes:
Lessons tied to matrix
behaviors, that include the components of
TELL-SHOW-PRACTICE-FEEDBACK are developed, available
for dissemination to all staff when the schedule or
data indicates the lessons need to be taught. Any
additional resources (e.g., scripts for
pre-correcting, announcement scripts, social
stories, signage, etc.) are developed and easily
available for use as needed in conjunction with the
direct lesson materials, such that ALL staff teach
social skills commensurate with their job
responsibilities.
Proficient
Level of Implementation is:
· We
have developed social skills lessons to
directly teach all school-wide expectations
and rules from matrix, and all nonclassroom
rules and routines and rules and routines in 80%
of classrooms.
· All
lesson components are clearly labeled
tell/introduce, show / model / demonstrate and
practice/role play. All our social skill lessons
include a range of various activities, ideas
and directions including numerous examples,
nonexamples, precorrects, positive feedback
statements, corrections and additional resources.
· Weekly
and all year, we
directly teach social skills lessons for all
school-wide expectations and rules from matrix, and
all nonclassroom rules and routines and for
all classroom rules and routines in 80% or
more of classrooms.
· At
least 80% of our teachers
and staff model social skills, practice,
regularly give specific precorrects before “hot
spots”, and consistently and fluently use
building PBS language.

Teaching Social Skills
with Integrity Tip Sheet - Provides teachers and school
staff members with information regarding what direct teaching of
social skills looks like, as well as ideas for how ALL staff
members teach social skills from the first to the last day of
the school year!
Social
Skill Lessons
The lessons linked below were
developed through collaborative efforts of teachers and
administrators from across the district during summer 2007 work
sessions. The lessons are aligned with the district
Personal Growth and Work Habits, and in many cases directly
align with matrix rules from individual buildings (although the
wording may be slightly different). These lessons are provided
to all district personnel in "word" format so that each school
can personalize or tweak the rule wording or scenarios provided
to best fit the building matrices, as well as individual school
characteristics and populations.
