1.5 clock hoursGuidance
The toolkit lesson. Five moments on a single preschool day where what you say and where you stand decide whether a small thing stays small — plus the one moment where the whole toolkit gets set aside.
In this lesson you'll
- State a positive-phrasing alternative to a common negative direction.
- Identify when to offer a limited choice rather than a direction.
- Describe how proximity and non-verbal presence change a room's volume.
- State the point at which a safety concern overrides a guidance strategy.
5 decision points to work through.
