Let’s hear it for Emily Ponder, a standout first-year teacher at Roundstone Elementary, who is setting the bar high for positive behavior supports in the classroom! 👏🍎
Emily is a model example of how PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) can transform a classroom. From day one, she has consistently used behavior-specific praise and positive acknowledgments to build a respectful, engaged, and supportive learning environment. 💬✨
And it’s working—student behavior in her classroom has improved steadily all year thanks to her proactive approach and consistency! 💪🎯
Roundstone Elementary and Emily have created a perfectly layered acknowledgment system that celebrates students at every level: 🌟 Classroom-level: Pom-pom rewards & behavior-specific praise
🍿 Class-wide: Fun popcorn parties for meeting goals
🎉 School-wide: Trips to Monkey Joe’s, bulletin board shoutouts, and announcements that celebrate student success
This is PBIS in action—and it’s making a difference!
đź‘Ź Congratulations, Emily and Roundstone Elementary! Keep up the amazing work modeling what a strong, positive school culture can look like! #PBIS #TeacherSpotlight #PositiveBehavior #RoundstoneRocks
