It’s All Behavior

The principles of behavior are at play in the world around us all the time. Learning about the science of behavior is both interesting AND useful!

Lots of controversy after my post about explicit, systematic instruction! Discussions are good! But watch what happens when, yesterday, I decided to take an inquiry-based approach in a literacy lesson…. I asked students to guess the meaning of a new word (Château). Two…
Let’s make sure we understand the difference between reinforcement and reward or these discussions are meaningless.
No. What happens when you reward expected behavior is you trade intrinsic motivation for extrinsic, and rewards lose their effectiveness over time as kids come to expect them.
Looking for a fantastic, low cost way to light up your toddler’s brain? You can’t go wrong with bubbles. 🫧 As simple it may seem, bubble play promotes a whole host of developmental benefits. Let’s unpack just a few on display in this video. First, blowing bubbles…
If you see behaviors that you want to continue, don’t ignore them! Behaviorism isn’t a “trap.” It’s science, and we can apply it skillfully and ethically to support students and teachers. #reinforcement #PBIS #ItsAllBehavior
How do you decide what incentives to offer to students or staff? Easy: None. None at all. Don't fall into the behaviorism trap. Don't reward expected behavior.
Dan’s work is a prime example of how we can use social media for good. Follow him if you don’t already! He’s here and on Threads. 🙂
Just wow. I couldn’t be more grateful for - or humbled by - this lovely profile in today’s New York Times, which uplifts not only the babies who take center stage on this channel, but the community we’ve built here. I’ll post a “gift link” in the first reply below, which…
Yup! Context is so important! A female teacher with no TA is far less likely to be able to just run to the bathroom real quick—it takes longer, and who’s going to supervise? Solutions have to fit.
It is so incredibly important that folks stop assuming that their teaching reality is everyone else’s teaching reality.

Gentle (for now) PSA to anyone who may review or cover my book: Jerry is disabled. Not differently-abled. Not handicapable. Not diversely abled. Not any other cutesy euphemism and especially, for the love of all that is holy, not "special needs." You can say it. She's disabled.
Guy on oxygen today said (nicely) that he was told masks don't work. Me:The study said they don't work if you don't wear them properly or don't wear them everywhere you go. Him:Maybe I should wear one. Me: I enjoy not getting sick Him: Hmm
You're seeing in real time how disinformation works. This is an outright, intentional lie from someone who knows better. Governor Abbott graduated from Vanderbilt Law, was a Supreme Court Justice in Texas, and was the Attorney General. He knows that Trump was not indicted by the…
It’s an ugly day for democracy when a sitting U.S. President running for re-election uses the Department of Justice to indict and arrest his leading opponent.
We’re asking you to rethink #HugYourCatDay. Humans may like a hug, but it’s rare for cats to enjoy it. As a prey species, being held tightly can be perceived as threatening 😾 Here are some other ways to show your cat affection ⏯️👇 Any other #CatFriendly tips? 😺
