green hippo Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Hi, I have been asked to compile a list of the expected behaviour of a 3 - 4 year old within the classroom setting. I will be using the development matters and LLN as a starting point but want to put it in more informal language with examples. I was just wondering what other people would put on this list re ability to listen attentively, using aggressive behaviour (how quickly would you expect a child using aggressive behaviour to change this type of behaviour, and following rules, such as, no throwing, walking inside only etc. Thanks Green Hippo x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catma Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 (edited) It's really how long is a piece of string....some children are capable of following behaviour rules imediately, others aren't. cx Edited February 5, 2012 by catma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I agree with Catma, how long is a piece of string. Every child is unique and who is to say what is normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lashes2508 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 it also depemds on modelled behaviour and if rules/ boundaries are introduced and when , behaviour varies so much and is dependent on child , how it is dealt with and the causes. We can only identify behaviour , assess and put into place methods for changing behaviour if deemed inappropriate , but behaviour covers a wide scope and does not just refer to 'bad' behaviour .
