Episode 15 Reflect, Reorganize, Return: The Reflection Room's Role in PBIS Success

PBIS Journey to Genius

Embark on a transformative journey with Dianne Ferrell and me, Diane Ruff, as we pull back the curtain on our pioneering PBIS system. Our special guest, educational aide Nicole Sell, lends her expertise, sharing how a simple idea I proposed during my assistant principal interview led to the creation of the Reflection Room—a sanctuary for emotional and behavioral recalibration. We delve into the nuances of managing behaviors through sensory strategies and how even the most restless student can find solace and a path back to focused learning within the walls of this innovative space.
As we traverse the spectrum of elementary education, from kindergarteners to fifth graders, we uncover the art of tailoring communication to support behavioral growth. Hear firsthand accounts of game-based learning that's shifting the paradigm on student engagement and self-management. Nicole's unexpected journey into the field of education and her commitment to nurturing emotional regulation is nothing short of inspiring. Tune in for an episode filled with triumphs, strategies, and heartwarming successes that illustrate the profound impact of thoughtfully implemented behavioral supports in our school community.
