Instead of the usual way of responding to behaviour which usually involves giving an instruction, try a more exploratory approach and see what happens
| Instead of: | Try this: |
| Sit still | I can see you’re finding it hard to sit still, I wonder if it would help if you came and sat nearer me |
| Stop talking | I can hear you talking, wonder if you would like me to explain it again |
| Start working | I can see you haven’t started writing yet, I wonder if you would like some help |
