(Question 5 is worth 2 points.)
5. Thomas is 4 years old. When his preschool teacher makes a request, such as “come and eat lunch”, Thomas ignores her and continues to play. Sometimes the teacher makes the request 10-12 times before Thomas stops what he is doing and complies. To decrease this noncompliant behavior, the teacher decides to implement a time-out procedure. The very next time Thomas didn’t comply with a request, the teacher picked him up, took him to a corner of the room and sat him down in a chair, explaining that he would have to sit there for 10 min b/c he had disobeyed the teacher. Thomas complained and cried loudly while sitting in the time-out chair. In response to Thomas’ complaining and crying, the teacher walked over to the chair where Thomas was sitting, told him to be quiet, re-explained why he had to sit there, and then threatened that Thomas would have to stay there even longer if he didn’t “get quiet. “
Don’t comment on whether or not the teacher should or should not use time out in this situation! Instead, focus on what the teacher did incorrectly in applying timeout and what would be the correct way to have implemented time out. Considering what you’ve learned about timeout from your text and class notes and discussion, describe at least 4 things wrong with the way that Thomas’ teacher is implementing the time-out procedure and describe what she should have done. Be specific and thorough in your discussion.
