At each station in the setting leave sand timers (varied times depending on activity e.g. 5 minute timer for the computer area) to encourage independent sharing and turn taking.
As the children begin to become familiar with the behavioural expectations set with their setting add class tick lists at each station. Encourage the children to self select activities sand tick their name to encourage independent sharing.
Provide a buddy bench, spot or friend within the setting. This will enable children to become independent and recognise when they are not happy with a situation and encourage peers to help think of a resolution independently.
