• Children need to know what is expected of them.  
• Establish a simple basic ground rules (eg. be safe, be respectful, 
be responsible).  
• Some ways to teach ground rules are: 
- Role play (act out)
- Repetition (hear rules repeatedly) 
- Discussion (discuss rules for better understanding)

2) Role Play
- Allow children to act out and role play or practice in order to follow 
rules
- Allow young children to role play with their friends to learn and 
experience social skills

3) Repetition
- Children need many opportunities to hear rules and need it to be repeated often
- Constant reminders of classroom rules ad expectations will help to change their behavior pattern

4) Discussion
- Rules have meaning when young children are able to comprehend
- Positive guidance requires that adults explain things to children by being simple and honest
- Children feel sense of ownership when they are involved in the creation of classroom rules

5) Clarify Expectations
• Make sure that children understand what we intend for them to do 
(eg. sit down please, please hold your milk with both hands, etc.).
• Avoid using vague, general terms (be good, be nice, etc.).
- Maintain Consistency
• Provide consistency in our expectations.  
• Discipline should not be enforced based on our mood or 
coincidental circumstance.  
• To be consistent be sure that child’s behaviour is not laughed at on 
one occasion and reprimanded on another.

So, their behaviour also tends to be a reflection of these. 
Ways to teach Ground rules -Before doing an activity , after a behaviour issue is observed - the kids need to be briefed clearly of their expectations for behaviour and why such expectations are set.
Consistency important - kids when they consistently follow something make it a habit. They also can appreciate the reason behind the changes if they are made too.]]> 2022-09-19 06:17:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302442982 https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302444332 Ground rules. 
Teacher can preempt and repeat the rules.
Follow through and consistency matters.

Consistency is important because they can be confused about what rules to follow if the rules change many times.

To pay most attention when the child is doing something good and ignore minor misbehaviours of the child as long as the child is safe. Praise the child or reward the child when the child shows manners if it is the aim to shape the child's behaviour around.
Set some ground rules for the child to follow.

It is important to be consistent so as to not confuse the child and so that the child is consistent in following the rules and expectations and not do whatever they want.]]> 2022-09-19 06:19:34 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302445400 https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302445498 To shape a child behaviours, the educarer needs to understand why the child behaviour. 

When setting rules, need to be consistent, otherwise, the children will be confused and not sure which to follow.

Always apply positive guidance, simple and clear rules. Avoid shaming or threaten the child as this will affect the ego and self esteem.

Ways to teach ground rules:
1. set simple rules
2. having preserverance
3. determination
4. start with simple things
5. read storybooks to children and thus teach them precious morals

Consistency is of paramount importance especially for young children at these ages as teachers, adults or caregivers need to repeat a couple of times for them to remember. It will be like a routine which children will know what are they going to do next.]]> 2022-09-19 06:19:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302445643 https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302445779 Before we teach children ground rules, we need to ensure that we establish some simple basic ground rules. Children need to know what is expected of them and these simple basic rules should be easy for them to understand. We can use role play to teach ground rules by getting children to act out the different scenarios. The ground rules can be shared repeatedly to let the children listen and hear the ground rules. The teacher can start off her lesson each day with the sharing of ground rules. For the older classes, we can also use discussions to let the children discuss about the rules for better understanding. This way, they can contribute to the different rules and share about what they think can be included to the ground rules.

Consistency is important while shaping behaviours as it helps the children gain trust and confidence in caregivers who are consistent in setting rules and regulations. Children will feel secure and confident through the caregivers' love and warmth. It also encourages appropriate behaviour amongst children. ]]> 2022-09-19 06:19:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302445779 raihani1 https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302445927 Emphasize the classroom rules before we begin lesson.

As for language teachers who had to teach all the levels, language teachers need to adapt to the form teacher's set of rules and enforce it in class.]]> 2022-09-19 06:20:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302445927 https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302446329 Ground rules should be established at the beginning of a lesson/session, and the teacher/educarer should explain the purpose they serve. Consistency is key in shaping behaviours as that will give the children the idea that that is what they are supposed to do on a daily basis so in future, they are able to automatically do what they are supposed to do as that will actually be embedded in their minds.]]> 2022-09-19 06:20:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302446329 https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302446816 ways to teach ground rules:
- be consistent
- set simple rules

why consistency is important?
this is because without consistency, they will be confused and do not know what to do. consistency will be like a routine whereby they know to expect. ]]> 2022-09-19 06:20:45 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302446816 https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302448254 Ways to teach ground rules:
1) Discuss and set the rules together with the children and keep the rules short and sweet, with words that are easy for them to understand.
2) Go through the rules with the children every day in the morning and also give them constant reminders.

Why is consistency important:
If teachers are not firm and consistent in following the rules, children will not treat the rules seriously and most probably will not follow them.]]> 2022-09-19 06:21:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302448254 https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302448308 Set ground rules together 
In centres can make the announcement of rules like a routine before every activity. 
Reading moral value kind of stories to the children 

Consistency is very important, at this age is where they are starting to fill in their knowledge. When being consistent the children will not get confused as well. It will be clear in their mindset ]]> 2022-09-19 06:22:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302448308 https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302448353 Behavioural shaping is when the child's caregiver or educator guides the child in the right direction by encouraging positive behaviours and discouraging negative ones.

Ways to teach ground rules to children: Repetition, discussion, and role play. 

Consistency is important as the child will understand that the rules are absolute, and that the teacher will remain fair, without acting on his/her own emotions. The child will know what to expect, and will follow the routine as they become used to it.]]> 2022-09-19 06:22:04 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302448353 https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302448938 Teaching behaviour involves teaching a child a new skill one small step at a time. Each step is reinforced before a new step is taught.
Ways to teach ground rules to children: 
1. Model Behaviours for young children
2.  Playing games to exercise in self-regulation
3. Consistency]]> 2022-09-19 06:22:34 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302448938 https://padlet.com/ece_01/40ppl77f6pwsfnvp/wish/2302449438 Behavioural shaping is the teaching of new behaviour through reinforcement to achieve the desired behevaviour. 

We should make clear rules and apply them in the same way all the time, need to know what is expected of them and what responses they can expect from their parents/caregivers. Besides, multiple caregivers need to agree in advance on rules and ways to enforce them.

Importance of consistency:
-Teaches discipline and self-control.
-Help them to feel secure.
-Sense of accountability.

way 
select the rules that you will use to set guidelines and limits for behavior in your classroom. state the rules in terms of positive expectation of behavior you want to see.
