***PBIS***

PBIS - We call it Positive Behavior In School.  :)

At Res when the students get caught doing something good they can earn a Faith Shield.  We have two types of rewards that the students may earn with their Faith Shields.  The students may put them in the whole school bucket or the class bucket.

If they put them in the whole school bucket, they are brought up at Mass on Thursday.  On Monday all of the school's Faith Shields go into one bucket.  Then the students have a chance to win something if their name is picked.  They can win things like sitting in the principal's chair for the day, extra recess time, a pizza party for you and a friend, an ice cream party for you and a friend, etc.

If they put them in the class bucket, they go towards a reward that the class has agreed on.  The reward our class wanted (and Mrs. Franz approved) was a movie and pajama day.  To earn our class reward, the students need to collect 400 Faith Shields.  Well, last week we had a PBIS assembly.  Each of the students earned 16 Faith Shields.  Most of them went into our class bucket.  We have already reached the 400 mark!  So...

The students will have a pajama day this week Wednesday.  They may wear their pajamas to school. They asked if they could also bring a stuffed animal if they wanted to and I told them they could. We just finished reading the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory today so that is the movie that we will watch on Wednesday.
