Being flexible in working with school-age children in afternoon programs means being able to adapt to changing situations and individual needs. This includes being open to adjusting schedules, activities, and routines as needed to accommodate the diverse needs and preferences of the children. It also involves being understanding and patient when dealing with unexpected challenges or behaviors, and being able to problem-solve and find creative solutions to ensure a positive and engaging experience for all children involved. Additionally, being flexible may also mean being open to feedback and input from both the children and their families to continuously improve and tailor the program to best meet their needs and interests.
