The photographs can be added to the class list and posted. On a regular basis, celebrate how long the helping hand chain is getting!Īs a story review, ask the children “What can you do with your hands?” As the children’s answer, write or draw a picture to make a class list of “what our hands can do.” The children can also demonstrate what their hands can do and you can take photographs of the children in action. The hands can be placed on the wall to wrap around the room, or in the hall to link with a neighboring class. As you recognize a child’s helping hand behavior, have the child get a hand from their pocket and connect it to the class’s “helping hand” chain. Catch children using their hands to help others or to be a friend. Place them in a pocket or baggy that is easily accessible. Trace and cut out multiple hands for each child. Have the children make a “helping hands” chain. The girl rams her trike into the trike in front of her. Give children a variety of situations and ask them if they should “stop or go”.
Use a popsicle stick with “stop” on one side and “go” on the other. Someone picked up your beads and they fell off the string. Someone took the car you were playing with. Give children several scenarios and play a game of “What could you do instead of hitting?” Examples below: Help them problem solve by coming up with solutions of what they can do instead of hitting.
While reading the story, have children talk about how they might feel when someone hits them.
Children can practice what we can do with our hands.
While reading the story, demonstrate the suggestions throughout the book: handshaking, clapping, blowing kisses, pointing, etc.
