  17. “I got two A’s”, the small boy said, his voice was filled with glee. His father bluntly asked, “Why didn’t you get three?” “Mom, I’ve got the dishes done,” the girl called from the door. Her mother very calmly said, “Did you sweep the floor?” “I mowed the grass,” the tall boy said, “and put the mower away.” His father asked him with a shrug, "Did you clean off the clay?” The children in the house next door seemed happy and content. The same things happened over there, but this is how it went.

  18. “I’ve got two A’s,” the small boy said. His voice was filled with glee. His father proudly said, "That's great, I’m glad that you belong to me.” “Mom, I’ve got the dishes done,” the girl called from the door. Her mother smiled and softly said, “Each day I love you more.” “I’ve mowed the grass,” the tall boy said, “and put the mower away.” His father answered with much joy, “You’ve made my happy day.” Children deserve a little praise for tasks they’re asked to do. If they’re to lead a happy life, so much depends on you. Study guide scenarios

  19. Keys to Developing a Child’s Self-Concept

  20. Plan successes • Point out successes • Help the child perceive him/herself as successful • Provide practice to improve skills • If they have more failures than successes, back up to where success is achieved, and then move ahead gradually • As long as there are more successes than failures, children learn to not let a few failures get them down. • A child who is over-protected and not allowed to fail will learn to try only if success is guaranteed. Provide more successes than failures for the child. Give the freedom to fail with acceptance.

  21. Recognize the effort and improvement, not just the final accomplishment. • Support as they do new things. • “I know you can do it” • “You handled that really well” • “You will make it next time” • Show appreciation. • “Thanks, you were a big help” • Let child know that even if you do not approve of their behavior, you still love them. • Accept children as they are, not as they could be. • Respect your child. • Show them how much you care about them. Give lots of encouragement. Give unconditional love.

  22. Let them do things for themselves. • Let them work through a problem. • Give them choices as early as possible. • Tell children what they can do, not what they cannot do. • Catch them doing something good more often than what they are doing wrong. Allow independence. Eliminate the negative.

  23. They don’t have to be 100% all the time. • Know their abilities and work within those abilities. • Children are not miniature adults. • Do not over-estimate their maturity. • Development if child • Be careful of nicknames. • Do not make fun of them, especially in front of others. Do not set standards unreasonably high. Avoid ridicule.

  24. Let them explore their environment. • Give them a chance to see cause and effect, such as what happens when a rock is dropped in water. . . • Play, get messy, touch • Set limits (boundaries and rules) • It helps them to feel security, protected, valued, and loved. Allow exploration and encourage questions. Set limits.

  25. Every child needs to feel that they are good at something. • Give them encouragement and opportunities to try new things. • Encourage their talents, not the ones you wish they had. • Do not belittle them • “That is nothing to cry over”, or “You’ll get over it”. • Ask them for their advice and opinions. • Listen to them and act on their thoughts. Help your child develop their talents. Take their ideas, emotions and feelings seriously.

  26. Improve your own self-image. Let your children see that you value yourself. • Let your children see you make mistakes, learn from them, and try again. • Give them chores that are appropriate for their age. • Give them family jobs so that they feel valued and important to the family. Be a good role model. Give your children responsibility.

  27. Give them support when they need it. • Spend time together. • Work, talk, and share activities together. • Point out when they are meeting your expectations and requests. Be available. Let children know when their behavior is appropriate

  28. DAPLA – Pick 1 • Have each child draw a tree trunk with branches on the white paper. Have each child cut out leaves from the construction paper. On the leaves have each child write something they like about themselves. Glue the leaves to the tree. Have the children color the paper. (10 leaves) • Create a self-collage using pictures, words, or symbols clipped from magazines that represent things they enjoy doing or own, places they've been, people they admire, or careers they desire. Glue onto paper that has your head silhouette drawn. (10 pics) Me TREE Self-Collage
