Child A:
Miss Stacy, he needs one at a time.
Teacher:
Well, what should we do about that?
Child B:
I need four.
Child A:
But you need one at a time.
Teacher:
Well you know what we have got to figure out a solution to this. What could we do, Jacob, Xavier, look up here. What could we do guys, come up here. Let’s figure it out. You have some blocks and you have some blocks, don’t you? Hmm. You guys want to trade? Would that work?
Child A:
I was telling him that I could trade.
Teacher:
You could maybe trade blocks with him?
Child A:
Yeah. After I’m done with this.
Teacher:
After you’re done with it. So you want him to wait his turn? Or maybe, I even see something else that would work out good.
Child A:
Wait his turn.
Teacher:
That’s a good one, that would work out. But there’s something else that might work out real good too. What about, what’s this one? Play…
Child B:
Together. Share. Teacher:And share. Would that work out? I think so. Where do you guys want to play and share?
Child A:
Play it over there.
