This will challenge {LEARNER_FNAME}’s ability to delay gratification by giving up a desired “prize” in exchange for a better surprise if {SUBJ_PRONOUN} can wait. It’s important that {SUBJ_PRONOUN} trusts that the better prize will come if {SUBJ_PRONOUN} successfully waits, so make sure you offer a prize that you are okay with giving {OBJ_PRONOUN} later!
If {LEARNER_FNAME} wants to play a game on the phone or computer, see if {SUBJ_PRONOUN} can wait for a while to increase the time {SUBJ_PRONOUN} is allowed to play.
When {SUBJ_PRONOUN} asks to play the game, note what time it is. Say: If you decide to play now, you can play for 5 minutes. But if you wait for 10 minutes, then you can play for 10 minutes.
If {SUBJ_PRONOUN} decides to wait, tell {OBJ_PRONOUN} you will let {OBJ_PRONOUN} know when the waiting time is up. In the meantime, you can suggest that {SUBJ_PRONOUN} can read a book, draw, or do another activity; by letting {OBJ_PRONOUN} choose another activity {OBJ_PRONOUN} enjoys as a distraction, {SUBJ_PRONOUN} can make it less tempting to do the desired action. Leave the phone or game somewhere in {POS_PRONOUN} reach where {SUBJ_PRONOUN} can see it.
If {SUBJ_PRONOUN} takes the phone, let {OBJ_PRONOUN} play the game for only the original amount of time (5 minutes).
If {SUBJ_PRONOUN} successfully waits 10 minutes, praise {OBJ_PRONOUN} for waiting and let {OBJ_PRONOUN} play for the longer period of time.
As {LEARNER_FNAME} gets better at waiting, increase the amount of time that you ask {OBJ_PRONOUN} to wait (for example, for 30 minutes, an hour, or even longer). |

PWA What to look
|
Encouraging anything {LEARNER_FNAME} does to exert control over their desire for immediate rewards is very important. In this activity, notice if {SUBJ_PRONOUN} focuses on something else, closes {POS_PRONOUN} eyes, or uses other strategies to help make the waiting easier. And be sure to praise {SUBJ_PRONOUN} for using those strategies after they are done! |
PWA Why this matters
|
Learning to wait for what you want is an important skill, especially in a world where instant gratification is easy to obtain through technology. Practicing waiting and self-distraction for an increased reward later can help your learn build up {POS_PRONOUN} ability to wait for other things! |
