Role-play with another teacher showing how the children should ask for help when needed. Use a real situation in the classroom. Say, "The other day, I came in from the playground and I had a rock in my shoe and it hurt. I couldn't get my shoe off because it was tied in a knot. I walked up to Ms. Turner and gently patted her arm and asked, "'Can you please untie my shoe? I need help.' Ms. Turner helped me take off my shoe and my foot felt so much better."
