POSITIVE BEHAVIOURS FOR LEARNING
Our PB4L focus for next week (Week 7) is Waste Management
In the explicit teaching lessons the expected behaviours taught will be:
- Putting my food waste in the compost bin
- Putting paper and cardboard waste in the recycling bin
- Putting foil, plastic bags and Gladwrap in the rubbish bin
- Taking uneaten food home in my lunchbox
Examples of behaviours that negatively impact on Respectful, Responsible and Safe Waste Management include:
- Throwing food scraps in either the rubbish or recycling bin
- Leaving my rubbish in the classroom, breakout space or on the playground
- Throwing away uneaten food
Our Week 8 Social and Emotional Wellbeing Focus to develop relationship skills is
Making an Apology (Saying ‘You’re Sorry’)
In the explicit teaching lessons the expected behaviours taught will be:
- Look a the person
- Use a serious sincere voice
- Say “I am sorry for” or “I am sorry that ……………….”
“I can see what I have done has …………………….”
“I would like to try to make this better by ……………………”
- Say “Thanks for listening.”
We would very much appreciate your discussing these weekly focuses with your children and reviewing the expected and non-acceptable behaviours in our endeavour to see that St Patrick’s is a more respectful, responsible and safe learning community for all.
