Episode 96: PBIS and the ABC's with Larry Carey | Leaning into Leadership

Larry Carey is a Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports Coordinator in Columbus City Schools. Prior to this role, he was acting as a teacher on special assignment for the NEA Organizing Fellowship Academy. His journey began as a student in the Columbus City Schools. In 2014, after working as a Pre-Kindergarten instructional assistant and library aide, Mr. Carey enrolled back in college to obtain his teaching license to pursue his goal as an Early Childhood Educator. During the pandemic, Mr. Carey created a YouTube channel for those students who may not have had access to a computer but had access to a tablet or phone. He also began completing the final touches to his book None (https://a.co/d/0CwBnf8) After publishing his book, Mr. Carey created companion activities that align to the National Standards for fellow educators that range from Pre-Kindergarten to 8th grade. A vast number of the activities focus on letter recognition, sounds, colors, identifying what is occurring in the illustrations, and of course, vocabulary! For the higher grade levels, vocabulary and creating their own alliteration is key to mastery. These activities along with the book can be found on his website: www.larrycareyltd.com (http://www.larrycareyltd.com/) Here is the Parkmoor Elementary School PBIS video (https://youtu.be/me9GXHWR21c?si=-6F7tyqIaFkMsnIo) Catch Larry on Social Media: Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/larry.carey.96), Twitter (https://twitter.com/Larry_Carey85), Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/antwan_carey/), and LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/larry-carey-58372478/) Get your autographed copy of Road to Awesome: The Journey of a Leader here (https://checkout.square.site/buy/5HTZEEBAAQ36L35Q2URI52WK) or buy it on Amazon (https://a.co/d/8KeBpQA) Book Darrin to speak at your school or conference contact us here (https://roadtoawesome.net/contact-us) Grab your copy of Darrin's FREE e-book Walk in Your Purpose (https://walkinyourpurpose.roadtoawesome.net/ebook) Check out Darrin's blog for great leadership tips and ideas (https://darrinpeppard.edublogs.org/) Sign up for the Road to Awesome email list and newsletter (https://roadtoawesome.net/) Have a book idea you'd like to submit to Road to Awesome?
