Kindergartner José gets very upset when it’s time to transition from one activity to another. Which of the following strategies might help smooth transitions?
  1. Give him a five minute verbal warning accompanied with a visual cue.
  2. Remove him from the room before transitions.
  3. Send him to the resource room.
  4. Keep him in from recess if he is disruptive during transitions.
Explanation
Answer: A-Giving José a verbal warning accompanied by a visual cue will probably help him transition more smoothly. For example, turn off the lights and announce the five minute warning. Some teachers make a cut-out of a hand to hold up to illustrate the point. For some children, you may have to go to the individual child, tap him on the shoulder, make sure he’s looking at you, and repeat the instructions. Asking the child to help give the five minute cue is also effective.
