Answer to Question 1

ANSWER:
The teachers role is to help the child see the time-out as a time to regroup, talk about the incident, and gain self-control. Caution must be applied to ensure that the child does not see this as an act of rejection, detention, or a way to vent anger about the childs behavior.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER:
Room arrangements are powerful tools for controlling childrens behavior, so teachers can achieve a number of behavioral goals using the physical space in the classroom. Child-size furniture that fits the preschool body encourages sitting and working behavior. Low, open shelves encourage self-help and cleanup. Room arrangements that avoid a long, open space prevent a runway that might encourage running. Room arrangements should suggest the type of behavior that should take place in that space: large, protected floor space for block building, for instance, or pillows and comfortable furniture near bookshelves to encourage quiet reading.
