Role play
We decided to to role play behaviours we saw occurring in the classroom. We fought over toys, we pushed each other and we even used "unkind" words to each other ("You are not my friend, you're stupid etc...). We then asked the children tell us what we did wrong. Most of them were able to explain what we did wrong and tell us how we could do it differently. We then, went back and role played as the children directed.
Model
Modelled for our students the importance of caring for their school community by doing a clean up of the school and surrounding grounds. Our hope was that by modelling good citizenship skills our students would intern teach others to do the same.
