Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: Many young children have not developed the attention span or the self-control to participate in a whole group, wait for a turn, or focus on an activity chosen by someone else.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: Humans are resistant to change. Children who are engaged in an activity are reluctant to stop and move on to the next. The teacher can make sure children have adequate time for choosing and working on activities with freedom to stay or leave an area at will; give adequate warning when a necessary transition is approaching to allow the child to complete or at least think about ending the present activity; keep routines standard so that the child learns to anticipate what is coming next; make expectations clear about what the next activity will entail.
