How to Model Short Helpful Phrases

Children often respond better to short repeatable phrases than long explanations.

What this note is helping with

Use small phrases like 'my turn,' 'your turn,' 'help please,' or 'all done.' Say them slowly during real routines. Pair them with pointing or passing so the meaning stays clear and practical.
