Your Question?
CASE STUDY
Teagan is the group leader for a group of two year olds. Today she is feeling really exasperated. She can't understand why the children in her group refuse to do as she asks them and why some throw temper tantrums that last for a long time. She complains that the children are always fighting, even though she tells them they all have to be friends and play together nicely.

If Teagan wanted to express the room limits to the children who we're fighting, what positive statement could she make?

What is your answer so far or What have you done so far as an attempt to solve this question?
I have no idea other than maybe she could redirect them to different activities but limit the number of children at the activity

Room limits are basically rules that are set within the room to help guide children's behaviour. So, if two children were fighting they could be reminded of "keeping their hands to themselves" which could be a room limit. For toddlers, there should only be 5 limits and they can be colour coded in order to help the children remember.... A positive statement that could be made can be "hey job and bob can you tell me what the red rule is? No? Come and see... It means keep your hands to yourself. So, how about you both go and work on a puzzle together to see if you can do this"....
