Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Teach, Task Box, Inspire, host Lisa Hollady breaks down the difference between positive reinforcement and bribery—and why that difference matters more than you think. With real-life examples from her own summer adventures (think grocery store trips, beach day prep, and chore battles), Lisa brings this strategy to life in a relatable, practical way. You’ll hear how intentional reinforcement helps reduce power struggles, encourages independence, and supports students with diverse needs. Whether you're a seasoned special educator or just prepping for back-to-school, this episode will help you rethink how and why you reinforce behavior—at home and in the classroom.Resources Mentioned: Reinforcement Preference ChecklistVisual Aids Free training: 3 Simple and Powerful Ways to Cultivate Independence in Your Special Education Classroom Show Notes: https://chalkboardsuperhero.com/episode93
