Model Self-Help Skills

Resource Description:

In this exemplar video, a teacher asks the children to put on their shoes and says, “Do you need my help?” and “What do you need help with?” Notice how the teacher uses simple, supportive language to guide children in practicing self-help skills like putting on their shoes by themselves– an example of modeling and using language to support children’s mastery of self-help skills.
