Rea (3 yrs) who points rather than ask for things, will sit quietly and watch the others eat.
Rea relies on gestures to have her needs met. At Rea’s age she should be verbalising her needs and choices.
What can Giselle say to Rea , how can she prompt her so that Rea responds/replies by saying a word?
Angela (5.2 yrs) will be ‘too busy’ playing to come to morning tea even though she knows there will be nothing else to eat until lunch time.
Angela has been in child care for four and a half years. She is an extremely bright child and lately has become engrossed in creating intricate drawings.
Can Giselle offer options to Angela to choose from?
Kevin (4.9 yrs) will take charge of the plate and give the children the fruit he does not like.
Kevin is the oldest of four children. His lifestyle is unpredictable and chaotic.
. What specific way could Giselle ask Kevin to share the fruit, so that Kevin can also choose?
