Praise

While talking to Varsha's teacher about her interaction with other children, the teacher said something very interesting. She said that Varsha had shown the quality of being supportive. In her observation she had seen Varsha giving due credit to other children when they helped her out. It was a pleasant surprise and also a relief that this teacher was able to go beyond the superlatives (good, excellent etc)and also make such subtle observations.
Making the child aware when he/she uses a certain quality can help to build the child's self esteem.
