  Case: Outside Activity
At my school, we have to do a fifteen minute planned activity on the playground each day. For a four year old, this can very difficult. A few of my students do not want to participate in the activities, because they want to go play. Any ideas on how to keep these students interested and involved?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
A good way to keep them involved in the activities is to have fun activities and not lose their interest. A good way to do this is to introduce them to a few activities, and then allow them to then maybe chose which one they'd like to do for the day. This gives them the power to vote for their favorite and also gives you an idea of the type of activities they enjoy. Also try to make the activities as similar to playing as you can, that way it doesn't seem like work instead of play.
