One day Angela asked Paul to clean up the sand he dropped on the ground from a distance and he didn't want to.
Kate quickly found a little broom and handed it to Paul. He still refused.
Kate didn't give up though. She said to Paul "How about I show you? I'll have a go and then you can have a go."
Kate successfully role modelled for Paul how to sweep the sand back into the sandpit and handed the broom to him again. And he did it!!! Kate told Paul he did a great job and he came to Kate and gave Kate a big big hug!
This was an excellent example of Kate modelling positive behaviour as a behaviour management strategy. In collaborating with Paul, Kate built her relationship with Paul as well.
