Lastly, the Positive Social Rules Fan provides visual cues for social rules, promoting positive instruction.
Key Features
- Behaviour Fan: Supports children’s understanding of appropriate behaviour using traffic lights to indicate ‘green’ well done, ‘amber’ think, ‘red’ stop. Encourages children to reflect on their actions and promotes positive behaviour through praise.
- How Can I Be Polite? Fan: Teaches children the correct words and gestures for polite responses in various situations, such as saying please and thank you, and offering to share.

Additional Information
Ask the child to think about what should happen next by saying sorry and being friends. Use the thumbs up and star petals to praise appropriate action and reinforce the resulting positive behaviour. If a child is shouting, use the ‘use your indoor voice’ symbol or if a child is taking turns then use an appropriate petal and pass the fan backwards and forwards between the children when it is their turn. This fan can really help children to understand and remember Positive Social Rules.
