Verbalizes Expectations and Limits

Resource Description:

In this exemplar video, the teacher calmly tells the child, ‘We do not hit,’ after he pulls and upsets a friend. She helps him calm down and gently guides him to make a better choice. Notice how the teacher responds quickly and uses kind words to stop the behavior—an example of verbalizing appropriate expectations and limits for children, and modeling appropriate behavior for children.
