A teacher notices some students react impulsively when transitioning between activities. Which strategy helps students build impulse control during transitions?

This strategy may lead to increased frustration and resentment among students, as it does not address the underlying impulse control issues. Instead of helping them develop better behavioral responses, it may reinforce negative behaviors and create a punitive environment that does not encourage self-regulation.

While it may seem beneficial to overlook minor misbehaviors, this approach can fail to teach students the importance of staying focused during transitions. Ignoring off-task behavior does not provide students with the necessary guidance or strategies to improve their impulse control and can lead to the normalization of disruptive actions.

Unstructured movement may increase impulsivity among students who already struggle with transitions. Without clear guidelines, students may become distracted or engage in off-task behaviors rather than developing the self-regulation skills needed to transition smoothly between activities.
