PBIS Jeopardy Game Show Assembly

This week the Brookdale Students participated in a school wide PBIS  (Positive Behaviors and Supports) program refresher assembly.

The assembly was based on the game show Jeopardy and allowed students the opportunity to revisit our school's core values.

 

"Contestants" choose category's and answered questions related to situations or scenarios they face throughout their school day.

 Each question reinforced the importance of our school's three core values of being

RESPECTFUL

RESPONSIBLE

AND SAFE

 The assembly was broken into primary (K,1,2) and intermediate (3,4,5) grade level sessions.

  The audience participated by using the "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" sign to show if they agreed with the answers the contestants gave.

 Because learning behavioral expectations requires multiple exposures throughout the school year,  these assemblies are beneficial in keeping our school a great place to come each and every day. 

The assembly ended with Mr. Korbitz leading us in the Brookdale School Song!

PBIS Assembly

The students of Brookdale attended a school-wide assembly focused on our school's PBIS (Positive Behaviors and Supports) program. Faculty members performed skits to teach the students what behaviors are appropriate

and what behaviors are inappropriate at Brookdale School.

 

Students who follow the school's behavior expectations and core values of being

 RESPONSIBLE

AND SAFE

 

earn P.A.W.S. (Postive Action Within School).  These PAWS are then treated

 as raffle tickets and allow your student to earn prizes within their classrooms.

Thank you to our talented teachers who made learning these expectations fun!

Llyod Bachrach

Thank you to the Brookdale PTA for bringing Lloyd Bachrach to Brookdale School. Lloyd was born in 1962 with a congenital bone deficiency which left his legs unusually small. Due to the severity of his disability, some doctors suggested there would be little or no hope for a normal life. Lloyd’s parents thought better. They took Lloyd home, nurtured and encouraged him. At a young age his parents enrolled him in some sports programs — first swimming, then little league baseball. He excelled and this helped develop a positive self esteem. At age thirteen, Lloyd was faced with the challenge of wearing artificial limbs, and in high school and college Lloyd became a champion gymnast who competed against able bodied athletes. In 1996 he competed on the USA Paralympic sit volleyball squad. He is an avid downhill mono-skier and a certified SCUBA diver. To learn more about Lloyd and his powerful message about overcoming adversity, please visit his website!
