Guidance Section

A. Pro social behaviors- When you use pro social behavior, other respect each other, showing affection, and helping others. Scenario: Sally likes to play on the monkey bars. She suddenly falls, and scrapes her knee, Bob comes over and helps her up and takes her to the teacher so she can get fixed up. 
B. Direct guidance- Actions speak louder than words, nonverbal actions are just as good as saying things to others. Scenario: Gertrude is walking along, and is very very sad. Jim sees that she is very sad, and shoots her a smile. Gertrude is now happy because a simple smile can make someone's day.
C. Indirect guidance- This involves all of the outside factors that happen to influence a person's behavior. Scenario: Kim works with a large group of people, they all have a positive attitude, so Kim is also happy while she works.
