Post date: Nov 4, 2016 5:04:13 PM

This week in social group, the students discussed when they should raise their hand and practiced using this skill appropriately.

The students brainstormed times they should raise their hand in class:

• If you know the answer to a question.
• When you have a question.
• When you need to go to the bathroom.
• If you would like to get a drink.
• If you would like to go to the nurse.
• When you need to go to the classroom, to go to another class.
• If you need help.

Next, the students practiced raising hand examples after being prompted with questions:

Raise your hand if you like rice.

Raise your hand if you have brown hair.

Raise your hand if you are in first grade.

Raise your hand if you are in second grade.

Lastly, the students brainstormed their own questions and asked peers.

At the end of the lesson, all the students showed understanding of when and how they should raise their hand!!
