Role of an adult?

Question

i have this question that i need people to answer
Describe the role of the adult in resolving arguments and difficulties with children that are 5-6 years old?

Answer 1

The role of the adult is to help the children express their feelings calmly. The adult should take the children to the side giving each one a chance to say what they feel the problem is and ask them to listen to each other. Ask each child if there is something they can do differently next time and if there is anything you, or who ever the adult is, can do to help or keep the problem from happening again. Most importantly, help the children to feel as if they solved the problem and that you, as the adult, were only there to help. This will encourage the children to try on their own in the future and will also help both children to feel more independent.

Answer 2

The adult should act as a mediator and a judge but also as a teacher. Yes, they are the final authority, but if they do not teach the children to think it through they will never learn to resolve problems themselves. The adult needs to make sure the resolution is fair and appropriate because some children of that age are far more advanced and verbal than others, but that does not make them right.

Answer 3

There are two ways : A ; Listen to the argument and then act as judge.Are they fighting over toy? Take toy away. B; Let them figure it out on their own. This is important for them to learn conflict resolution

Answer 4

well everyone is different.

first, I validate each side
then I try to teach empathy "would you like it if..." "How did that feel?"

exlain the cituation and the righ way it sould be solved (with not too much detail or they'll zone out.

then i tell them to say sorry

and if its something that is obviously wrong that they should know better, consequences of corners or no rewards are taken

it works well for me.
