Here at the Academy of Gateway we learned about making choices. The children have learned that depending on what choice they make it will have a consequence with it. Learning this will teach the children how important it is to think about what they are doing before they do it. The children get to feel independent and learn that if you make good choices how proud the teacher will be. Preschoolers are able to make reasonable choices if adults help them by not giving too many directions at one time and making sure that the choices are age-appropriate and clearly understood. Give the children opportunities to explain their reasons for choices. Discuss choices with the children.
Here are some great ways to help your child make good choices:
- Teach your child to know herself
- Learn your child's interest
- Talk to your child
- Get involved
- Pile on Praise
- Let them make mistakes
