today, a small battle was won

It is actually 80 degrees right now. So, of course my kiddies when out for recess. Since they have had some trouble behaving for other adults when I'm not around, I usually watch them out the window. Also, I enjoy seeing their stunned faces when I describe something that happened when I wasn't around.

Lately, one student, Sh, has been having a lot of trouble getting along with her classmates. And by that I mean, she punched a girl in the stomach yesterday and then pinched a little boy from the other kinder class. Well, I was watching out the window and there she went, hitting K on the top of the head. Finally, after about three bops, K said, "STOP!"

And she did.

When they came back inside, we talked about it and I congratulated both of them for using a strategy that we have worked on in class.
