Giving them tools like, next time Sally doesn't let you play, what could you do? You could play with another student or you could play by yourself, that's fine too.Miss Trayershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07994698870486768685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8708538586034027731.post-87937215608163637602012-06-19T07:48:17.293-07:002012-06-19T07:48:17.293-07:00Can you offer some suggestions for parents in rega...Can you offer some suggestions for parents in regards to #5?

Somehow, I could connect with him. He made a really cool pattern with unifix cubes--he had an ABBA pattern then the middle section was an AB pattern, then he went back to the ABBA pattern. I pointed out that he made a sandwich--with cheese in the middle. I think that stretched his brain more than saying: "you aren't doing what I told you."A Teacher Without a Classhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14835955149185141841noreply@blogger.com
