Q:For each of the statements below identify:
• What sort of influence the statement would have on children’s developing self-esteem i.e. positive or negative; and
• How you could re-word the negative statements to promote self-esteem and self-confidence?

Statement Positive or Negative? Changed responses for negative statements
· 1 Don’t do it that way – it’s wrong!

· 2 That’s ok, but it would be better done this way.

· 3 Why do you always get so dirty?

· 4 What is it? I don’t know what you have drawn

my response:
1. Negative Let me show you a better way
2. Negative That’s nice. How would you like to do it in a better way.
3. Negative I would like to do it together next time, maybe we can help each other to find a way avoiding get dirty.
4. Negative WOW. What a nice drawing. Could you explain the story of that?

they feedback:Good effort, however you need to think of how you could re-word the negative statements to promote self-esteem and self-confidence? Revise and resubmit the following

Dear Lorina thanks for your help but I`m not sure if this educator response is positive or negative could you plz guide me!if it is negative what is the correct response?
That’s ok, but it would be better done this way.

You're right...all the responses are negative...

For example:

That’s ok, but it would be better done this way.

I can see you're trying really hard. What other ideas can we come up with to see if it works...
