Scenario: Adding Chairs To Indicate How Many Children Involved

Post by momotayeasmin » Thu Oct 08, 2015 10:02 pm

Counting Chairs and Waiting
At popular activities, Educators place two, three or four chairs to indicate how many people should be involved. They also place another chair off to the side and the children are told that this is the ‘waiting chair’. Sometimes, there may be one or two waiting chairs – just like at the Doctor’s surgery!


Explain why this is a good example of Educator practice for children 3 - 5 years?

need help to give the answr

Think about:

- helps children to be patient and wait
- gives children an understanding that another child is waiting for their turn
- doesn't over crowd the activities etc.
