C.H.A.M.P.S. is a behavior management system used by all teachers at Woodlake. The C.H.A.M.P.S. system aims to improve student behavior through clearly defined expectations. Before each activity, the students review the expectations using the C.H.A.M.P.S. board posted in the classroom.
C = Conversation = How will students engage with each other during the activity?
H = Help = What’s the process for seeking assistance or support?
A = Activity = What type of learning structure or format is it?
M = Movement = Are learners permitted to move about the classroom?
P = Participation = Which behaviors demonstrate active learning?
S = Success = Are students successful with their behavior for this task?
By following the CHAMPS expectations, instructional time is optimized and students feel successful in their learning!
