Imagineerz
Putting PBIS into practice through STEM
Give a group of students cardboard, tape, and a STEM challenge. The first plan fails. One student takes over. Another checks out.
We provide shared language and tools students can use.

The tower falls.
Inhale, Calm Down, Adapt, Now try (i-Can!)
02
Ideas Collide.
Find an all-win solution
03
It’s too hard.
Take the next small step.

“A student was having a conflict at recess and was using the Imagineerz verbiage to help himself through it. Our principal heard him say ‘This is a Stop Sign!’ and he coached another friend to do the i-Can! calm down strategy, with hand motions too!”

“Any classroom that has Imagineerz, they already have a vocabulary. So when students come into my room, I can say those really short phrases and the kids know exactly what I mean about teamwork and getting the job done well.”
