Teaching Behavioral Expectations
Sample Lesson Plan Define the Expectation: Enter the cafeteria and quietly sit at assigned table for section. Provide a Rationale: Orderly entry leads into an orderly serving, eating, and cleaning process. Teach the Critical Discrimination: Demonstrate Appropriate Behavior- Students enter as a class and go directly to assigned section. Demonstrate Unacceptable Behavior – Students rush in; are loud; and do not go directly to seats. Practice telling the difference with multiple examples. If there is a “signal” teach the signal (Hands up signal means everyone should raise a hand and all mouths should be closed) Teach for fluency? Several times throughout the lunch period students will be directed to place hands up and expected to stop talking at that time How will this skill be maintained?- Practice as often as needed.
