How It Works

Students read the restroom scenario and decide what positive PBIS choice they would make. Then they explain why their choice shows safety, respect, responsibility, or kindness. After discussing or writing their response, students can scan the QR code to check a sample answer.

These cards work well for whole-class discussion, partner talk, small-group intervention, restroom expectation review, counseling lessons, or independent reflection. With 40 cards included, you can use one restroom scenario each week for an entire school year.

Why Teachers Love It

Restroom behavior can be difficult to monitor because students are often away from direct classroom supervision. These cards help students understand what positive restroom behavior looks like before problems happen.

Instead of only reminding students to “be quick” or “keep the restroom clean,” this resource gives them real-life restroom situations where they can practice privacy, safety, responsibility, and respect.

Suggested Use
