Work Buddy
Jonathon learned how to dust yesterday! I discovered the key to getting him to do his fair share of an assigned chore. Pair him up with a lazy peer! Why??? Because the lazy peer is going to make sure he does his fair share of the work! If I pair him with a peer who is more of a care taker, or motivated to get the job done, they tend to do the work themselves to get it over with. The lazy one is not about to do more than his/her work mate and so they are more than willing to keep Jonathon on task to get the job done! :)
