PBIS Big Idea
Problem behavior in non-classroom settings (hallways, cafeteria, playground, common areas) accounts for 50% of all problem behavior in schools.
Source: Colvin, Sugai, Good, & Lee (1997)

Nonclassroom SettingsAdapted from Sugai & Colvin, 1996
Particular times or places where supervision is emphasized Cafeteria, hallways, playgrounds, bathrooms Buses & bus loading zones, parking lots Study halls, library, “free time” Assemblies, sporting events, dances
Where instruction is not typically available Where ratio of adults to students is typically lower
than in classrooms (lightly staffed) Where supervision is typically shared or staffed by
non-certified staff

Decision-Making and Problem-Solving is Thoughtful and Calculated
(Mann & Muscott, 2005)
Utilize an action-oriented decision-making system that can apply to all levels of behavior Begin with Outcomes (What do we want to achieve?)
or Key Questions (What do we want to know?) Identify the scope a Problem (scope and context)
through the use of Data (Where we are now?) Identify Action items to get to the outcomes (What do
we want to do?) (Strategic Plan) which creates Structure so that follow through is an expectation
Monitor and Evaluate progress – Use Data to assess your progress (Did it work?)
Adapted from Horner (2003)

Goals of Playground Supervision
1. To provide an opportunity for physical exercise, social development, and fun
2. To keep students safe3. To provide an opportunity for students to learn
and engage in appropriate playground behavior that increases the likelihood it will occur in the future
4. To get students on and off the playground in an efficient and effective manner and back to class ready to learn
5. To respond to problem behavior in a way that decreases the likelihood it will occur in the future

PBIS-NH Supervision on the Playground: Activity 1
1. What do you want to achieve on your playground during recess next year?
2. What do you want to know?3. How will you know if you have
achieved success?

Data from PBIS-NH Schools2003-04
PBIS-NH elementary schools show playground as second most common area for problem behavior after classroom.
PBIS-NH middle schools show hallways as second most common area for problem behavior after classroom.
PBIS-NH high schools show hallways and office as tied for second most common areas for problem behavior after classroom.
PBIS-NH multi-level schools show hallways , playground and cafeteria as tied for second most common area for problem behavior after classroom.

Tag Gone Bad!Thorntons Ferry Elementary School
Playground was the location where most of the ODR referrals come from
Aggression/Fighting was the biggest problem behavior by far
Referrals were coming from many students rather than a few
SWIS data revealed highest levels of problem behavior was coming from 1st and 2nd graders on the playground at recess (214 ODRs August 03 through May 10, 2004)
Observation and reflection discerned it was primarily “tag gone bad” or lack of skills and appropriate games
![Page 13: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Reducing Aggression on the Playground Thorntons Ferry Elementary School

Thorntons Ferry ESMerrimack NH
September 2004 vs. September 2003 SWIS Data adjusted for number of students
Physical Contact 11 per 100 reduced to 6 (46%)
Defiance/Disrespect/Noncompliance 18 per 100 reduced to 5 (73%)
![Page 15: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Why the Improvement?
Focused on teaching the playground expectations rather than punishment
Universal Team taught playground monitors active supervision
Universal Team developed and taught the monitors and children Rules and Games for the Playground
Classroom teachers pre-corrected students by reminding students of expectations before leaving their classrooms each day for recess
![Page 16: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
PBIS-NH Supervision on the Playground: Activity 2
1. Identify any data source you have for playground/ recess behavior for the 2005-06 school year.
2. How many instances of problem behavior are there? (year, average per day, etc.)
3. What types of problem behaviors are more prevalent?4. Are there patterns for who exhibits the most problem
behavior? (grades, individual students, gender)5. Are there certain times when more problem behavior
occurs?6. Are there certain activities or games where more
problem behavior occur? (dodgeball, 4-square, tag, swings, etc.)
![Page 17: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Do You Need to Gather More Information?
An observation is planned for recess What should we be looking for?
Interviews with the supervising staff are planned What should we be asking them?
More SWIS reports are availableWhich ones should we generate?

PBIS-NH Supervision on the Playground: Activity 3
1. Review your playground/recess environment to determine whether physical arrangements support your program and develop an action plan for addressing any that are lacking?
1. Is the Behavior Matrix posted so students and faculty can see it?2. Is there a need to posted rules or procedures that go beyond the
matrix on or nearby specific equipment or activity areas?3. Are there visual supports such as painted lines to help with
procedures like lining up, playground boundaries, or a safety line for standing near swings?
4. Are there storage spaces for equipment with visual cues that help students keep equipment such as balls, jump ropes, etc. organized?
![Page 22: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

PBIS-NH Supervision on the Playground: Activity 4
1. Review your teaching matrix for the key expected playground/recess behaviors?
2. Does it include positive behaviors that are replacements for the problem behaviors identified by your data as most significant?
3. If so, identify the specific behaviors that should be highlighted in the teaching rollout.
4. If not, create replacement behaviors that address those problem behaviors, adapt your teaching matrix and get it ratified by the universal team and faculty.
5. Design a teaching rollout for playground following PBIS-NH guidelines.
![Page 25: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
3. Active Supervision by Adults
Active supervision is a critical yet under-utilized skill by adults in nonclassroom settings
Involves 3 sub-skills: Scan, Move, Interact Scan: Visually examine the entire environment
frequently noticing both appropriate and problem behavior
Move: Physically move around the entire area in an unpredictable pattern while visiting the problem areas frequently
Interact: Elicit conversations with most of the students while providing precorrections and reminders as well as positive recognition
![Page 26: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Tips for Scanning Be Constant and Strategic
Scanning Should Be Constant Constantly scan the environment with both your eyes and
ears by looking at each area for a few seconds Look at the big picture frequently Look at student behavior specifically
Scanning Should Be Strategic Practice identifying actions and sounds that signal
problems Learn to recognize signs that precede problem behavior Students with sad or scared facial expressions or concerned
looks Games breaking up for no apparent reason Quick violent movements
![Page 27: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Tips for MovementBe Constant, Random and Strategic
Movement Should be Constant Constantly move around to all areas of the playground
or those you have responsibility to supervise Movement Should be Random
Movement patterns should be unpredictable so that students can’t gauge when you will be in an area
Movement should be Strategic Identify trouble spots on playground and move to them
more frequently Identify students or combinations of students who
engage in either more problem behavior or more behaviors that are likely to result in more conflicts and visit them more frequently
![Page 28: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Tips for Interacting with Students Be Positive, Specific and Brief
Interactions Should Be Positive Provide positive contacts Provide positive recognition Provide frequent recognition for students exhibiting expected
behaviors Interactions Should Be Specific
Use specific language from the teaching matrix when recognizing students
Use precorrections to support positive behavior Focus on student behavior, not individual students
Interactions Should Be Brief Keep interactions short and to the point so that you can interact with
most students during the period Continue to visually scan the environment during interactions
![Page 29: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Provide Positive ContactsSmith & Sprague (2004)
Be friendly and helpful in generalConstantly smile and wave at students as
you move and scanBe proactiveProvide at high rateShort in duration (5-10 seconds)Non-conditional for specific behaviorsDelivered mostly to groups not
individuals
![Page 30: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Positively Recognize Expected Behaviors
Provide specific, verbal recognition using words from the teaching matrix
Provide recognition at a 4:1 ratio or better of positive to corrective contacts
Provide a recognition as quickly after the expected behavior as possible
Focus positive attention on problem routines Recognition as many students as possible Provide additional recognition based on your
schoolwide plan
![Page 31: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Recognition SystemsMuscott & Mann (2006)
Step 1: Specific verbal praise paired with visible acknowledgement given at high rates.
Step 2: Specific verbal praise paired with visible acknowledgement given intermittently.
Step 3: On-going random verbal praise connected to broad expectations and designed to enhance climate and
Highly visible periodic “attention grabbing: celebrations of success
![Page 32: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
SW Recognition Planning MatrixMuscott & Mann (2006)
1. In which strategic location will the behaviors be recognized? 2. What specific behaviors will be recognized in that location? 3. What is the visible acknowledgement? 4. How often should it be given?5. Who will be recognizing the students? 6. When should the recognition start? 7. When should the next step begin? 8. What, if anything, happens to the visible recognition after it
is earned?9. How will we ensure that staff practice giving out recognition
prior to implementation? 10. How will we know staff is implementing according to the
plan? 11. Are there any special circumstances?
![Page 33: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Use Precorrections to Support Positive Behavior
Quick reminders of expected behaviors that occur prior to the expected behavior Group or Individual
Focus on key errors to pre-alert students Only one line leader please 5 minute reminder prior to the end of recess Go up the ladder on the slide only
Use visuals and concrete examples in addition or verbal reminders
![Page 34: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Responding to Problem Behavior: Consequences or Corrections for
Minor Rule Violations Follow schoolwide procedures Handle minor rule violations quickly, quietly,
neutrally, and with positive follow-up Respectful, non-critical, non-argumentative Resolve privately if possible Focus on behavior, not student Use 2-minute rule – If the issue cannot be
resolved in 2-minutes, refer to support staff or follow school procedure
![Page 35: TECBD Conference November, 2006 Howard S. Muscott, Ed.D. Co-Director, NH CEBIS hmuscott@rivier.eduhmuscott@rivier.edu; 206-6891 .](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ced5503460f949baa45/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Responding to Problem Behavior: Consequences or Corrections for
Major Rule Violations Follow school procedures for major rule
violations Be businesslike, neutral, disengage Resolve privately if possible Focus on behavior, not student Follow 2-minute rule, refer or get help If successfully resolved, acknowledge student Precorrect for next time
Follow group and individual plans when they exist

Features of Active Supervision for Playground Monitors
Muscott (2006)1. Playground monitors know the schoolwide and
playground expectations and can state them.2. Playground monitors contribute to the teaching of
playground expectations to students in rollout or booster activities.
3. Playground monitors contribute to the teaching of the safe use of equipment to students in rollout or booster activities.
