ProSocial skills in the preschool classroom

I was asked by Noah of The People Garden to drum up some activities that promote pro-social sharing and negotiation skills for young children. I wanted to share this article so you could see the ideas as well. You will have to scroll down just a bit (past the very nice comments about me:) to see the activities.

There were four activities in all including...

#1 Sensory Play: Pepperoni Pizzas


#2 Music and Movement: Circle of Friends


#3 Creative Arts - Creating a rainbow


#4 Setting the Table

  2. These are all great ideas and Noah really does a great job of filling it out as a post.

    I love working on problem solving with groups of children -- it's really why I teach preschool. They are capable of doing so much, especially if they work together. One of my mantras is, "Together we're a genius."
