Kindergartner Cori has difficulty focusing on his work and keeping his hands to himself. He often touches or hugs the other children during group times, or sits inappropriately close to them. Which of the following strategies might help Cori sit successfully through group time?
  1. Provide individual mats or a carpet divided into separate squares.
  2. Remove Cori to another part of the room until he can keep his hands to himself.
  3. Have an assistant sit behind Cori to remind him to stay still.
  4. Have Cori sit with the teacher during group time.
Explanation
Answer: A-Individual mats or a carpet divided into separate squares will delineate personal space and make it easier for Cori to sit still during group time. Many young children seem unaware of personal space or frequently touch their friends. Other options include using a cube chair or giving Cori a fidget toy to provide some sensory input during group time.
