Where are you going to put it to dry, Jimmy?
PART TWO | MANAGEMENT | MOMENTUM
Example 1: The teacher, seeing a student nearing the end of an art proj- ect, says, “Where are you going to put it to dry, Jimmy?” Jimmy replies, “Under the woodworking table.” The teacher responds, “Okay, fine. Af- ter that, you can finish the book you started this morning.” The teacher has provided a focus for the closure of the activity and the transition to the next activity.
Example 2: As a pupil across the room appears stuck on his lab experi- ment, the teacher says, “Mark, ask Jane for some help if you’re stuck.”
Example 3: As the teacher sees a child using the last of the paint, he gestures for her to come over and reminds her to refill the paint jars when she’s finished.
