10-01-2018 16:32

As you watch this video, look for how the teacher:

  • Is in tune with a child’s needs
  • Responds to a child’s needs by providing different options
  • Involves the child in resolving the problem rather than solving it for him

The teacher helped the child process his feelings by giving him words to describe what he was feeling.

The teacher did a great job helping him work through his emotions. Something so simple that could hurt a child's day was easily resolved by staying calm and giving appropriate choices on how to resolve the problem.

The teacher was very understanding and caring towards the student. She responded to one student question and matched student's tone. She made eye contact with the students and there was back and forward conversation between the student and teacher. The teacher also provided a solution to the student problem.

The teacher was sensitive to the needs of the student. She validated the students as they commented on the dropping of the fork. She guided the boy in showing him how to problem solve.

The teacher was doing open and ended sentences with the children.  When the boy dropped his fork and she helped him.

Loved the teacher was sitting down with the children at eye level . It would have been easy to dismiss the boy being upset at having to get a new fork. Instead the teacher showed sensitivity and worked out a solution which validated the boys feelings .

She gave him a choice as to whether he wanted to get a new fork or wash the one he had. Also, she asked if he wanted to help in the process. Including him made him him feel useful and not like he did something wrong.

I think the teacher was very calm with the little boy. This is a very smart key for all of us.

I appreciate teachers that keep their calmness with their students and show sensitivity towards them.  On this video it showed that by her actions the other children also kept calmed and looked with concern.  Very good

I like all so how the teacher kept calm through the whole thing. Also keeping focused on the other children.

01-21-2022 13:16

She talked him though the transition of getting a new fork or washing it off. That help the child make his own decision.

I like the way the teacher helped the student realize he had options and encouraged him to solve his problem by using self-help strategies.

11-02-2020 18:41

Like all of us, she was sensitive to his needs

06-15-2020 17:08

I like the way the had a positive tone and also prompted the student to promote self-help.

04-23-2020 11:32

This teacher did a great job keeping her tone positive and calm.  Even when the child was becoming upset and refusing to wash his fork, she continued to be a source of support for him.  I also like how the other children are trying to reinforce the idea of "the floor is dirty, people step there".  They were trying to help their friend understand the importance of cleaning the fork.

04-22-2020 17:55

I like how she didn’t have raise her voice and she have the little boy many options and it worked.

10-07-2019 16:47

The teacher remains calm and uses a regular voice tone while talking to the child. I noticed that the teacher didn't recognized or didn't describe the child's feelings that is struggling to use the fork. I would say, "I see your face is like this (show him his facial expression) because it is hard to use the fork properly. However, she offered him appropriate choices when the fork fell off on the floor. The teacher provided the child two good options,  getting a new clean fork or keeping the one is being used but wash it off. 
I think the teacher was trying to  support the boy that ignored other children's interactions or words. I heard a girl said, "the ground is dirty." It would be a great using what the peer said to explain the boy why he needs to get a new one or wash it off.  I believe she was focus on the boy helping him to control his emotions and avoid a possible mistaken behavior.
Ultimately, she handled the situation using developmentally appropriate practices.

03-24-2019 20:57

The teach talked to him personally but did not engage all the children in the conversation. His response was guided by the teach with support. She responded to one of the children while guiding him but did not respond to another child.  But the outcome was successful to support the outcome.

01-09-2019 12:37

The teacher did not raise her voice. She as calm with him and gave him choices and how to solve the problem.  

The child was upset and but was able to control his emotions with the help of the teacher.  
She assisted the child but let him solve his own problems.

10-03-2018 14:01

The teacher talk to him personally without making a nowhere to the rest of the group also she guided him to make a decision by himself or with her and then she got up and she went and did it with him but had him participate with the soap which helped him he self-sufficient overall a great example
