- Discussing strategies with and alongside the children
- Some children are learning powerful negotiation strategies to get what they want rather than just screaming and demanding
- we talk about how its important to wait our turn
- No children are allowed to stand at the board and wait for a space
- Lots of checking in done by the students
- Only putting out equipment for three people has been helpful
While this strategy might sound annoying it provides a place for observation of children's behaviours when they don't get their own way, don't understand turn taking, develop naturally a way to negotiate in a powerful way. Great as a writing motivator!! |
