The Sharing Tree: Preschool Children Learn to Share.
Wolf, Arlene; Fine, Elaine
TEACHING Exceptional Children, v28 n3 p76-77 Spr 1996
This article describes a learning activity in which preschool children learn cooperative skills and metacognitive strategies as they master sharing strategies guided by leaves on a "sharing tree." Leaf colors (red, yellow, green) cue the child to stop, slow down and think about sharing and playing with others, and go ahead with a sharing activity. (DB)
