This friend thought that kicking was a good strategy when she would get frustrated. I had to teach her that it wasn't. This story was written right away so that her peers would not fear standing or sitting by her. This had to stop. We taught several replacement strategies including deep breaths, counting backwards, and request for a break. Since we gave her other options for handling frustration, we saw an immediate decrease in kicking. Give it a try. Enjoy!
My foot can kick.
When I touch someone with my foot, that is kicking.
Kicking others hurts.
I need to keep my feet to myself.
When I do, I will have lots of friends.
