How do I teach a child appropriate behavior?

Teaching Social Skills

Teach problem solving thinking during the teachable moment and in structured social lessons (social situations where alternative behaviors can be discussed and taught). For example, show pictures of children doing inappropriate behavior and have the class discuss the situation and alternative behaviors the child could have done that would be acceptable.
