PBIS and How Classdojo Can Enhance Your Management Style

Teach This Teacher

Join Wesley and his special guest, JT Kaltreider (Mister Kay). JT is an ambassador for Classdojo and he does a deep dive into how Classdojo enhances PBIS.

Some of the topics they discuss include:

• What is PBIS? How is it different from Classdojo? How does Classdojo play a part in PBIS?
• What is your answer to teachers that say they just don’t have time for it?
• Should negative behaviors earn you a negative point or should it be neutral? Does it vary depending upon the student, the teacher, or the circumstances?
• What are some of the creative and effective ways to manage negative behaviors?
• What are the ways to present and utilize Classdojo so that parents feel like they’re a part of it?
• What are some good ways to get the teachers, students and parents to buy into the program so they all benefit from it?

In addition, Wesley dissects a study done by the Texas Journal of Literacy Education “Using Classdojo To Help With Class Management During The Pandemic”. He also provides his personal thoughts on this subject based on his experiences with it.
