13013456, Yup. Communication is key Posted by kayru99, Fri Apr-29-16 09:12 AM
When I taught, timeout was more about the separation and cycling down of kids than the punishment of them. And my co teachers or I would always make our way over to them and talk. Always. It helped them understand why they were separated, and helped them to see that we weren't trying to hurt them.
Everything in life is accomplished via relationships, and it's funny we don't view our interactions with children thru that lens.
