Role Plays
Have each child do the role play. Examine how obligingly something can be conveyed.
1. You saw your younger brother's sloppy handwriting. Want to tell him that is no good.
2. You saw your younger sister screaming while you are busy with your homework. Want her to keep quiet.
3. You are upset that your older brother has more 'new' toys and want to ask your father why it is so.
4. Your brother is narrating some incident that happened in the school. You think it is a 'make-believe' story he is coming up with. How do you react?
5. Your friend borrowed your toy for a couple of hours. But he later forgot and never returned. You want it back badly. What do you do?
