Using PBIS Strategies at Home - Core Values, Expectations, Rules

Sep 2, 2026

Upload by Riley

PBIS strategies for home life organize family goals around core values, clear expectations, and consistent rules. Family members select and rank their most important values, then discuss agreement and use the results to define shared expectations. Rules are created to specify how those expectations and activities should be carried out across settings such as school at home, homework, chores, game time, and family time. Includes a FAIR mnemonic example that links values to daily responsibilities and behavior.

FAQs

How do family members use PBIS to choose core values at home?

Each family member numbers their top values, then discusses agreement as a family. Together they decide on the top core values that can support shared expectations.

How are family expectations and rules created from core values?

After discussing which values matter most, the family decides on expectations related to core values. Rules are then defined to explain how to meet those expectations during specific activities and settings.

What does the FAIR example show about expectations and daily activities?

The FAIR mnemonic groups expectations into value-based areas and provides matching daily activities. It also shows how rules support expectations where daily tasks and settings meet.
