SUMMER CAMPS GUIDELINE
Annex 7 - Behaviour Management
General Strategies for Encouraging Good Behaviour & Managing Difficult Behaviour
• 
Wherever possible ignore bad behaviour and concentrate on good behaviour.
• 
Reinforce positive behaviour through reward activities.
• 
Criticize the behaviour but not the person: e.g. ‘Hitting is bad because….’ not ‘you are bad for hitting’. 
• 
Create opportunities for learning: e.g ‘As you broke a cup this time, remember next time not to carry so many’
• 
Ensure that children feel secure while attending summer camp.
• 
Do not let conflict situations escalate.
• 
Use positive phrasing: e.g: don’t say “do not put the cup there” but instead say “please put the cup on the table instead of leaving it there”.
• 
Be fair and give children an opportunity to explain.
• 
Allow children to take responsibility for a task or to care for a friend when needed. 
• 
Listen and empathize with feelings being expressed, even if you do not agree. Don’t judge!
• 
Apologize: when you are wrong!

: The aim of this report is to gather information on the key aspects of the summer camp and therefore it must be based on the weekly reflections held with children and animators 
and also on a close follow up of the activities of the summer camp. Each of the sections must provide sufficient information in order to give a full overview on the summer camp.
