Reinforce that when Traffic Lights are displayed the teacher can see at a glance those students that need help. There is little point in asking a student that you are standing next to to show you their Traffic Light (usless you are checking their understanding of what the colours mean) - you might as well just have a conversation about it. The teacher may need to gently remind students to display theirs by saying something like "remember to display your Traffic Light', "has everyone displayed their Traffic Light", 'have a look around and make sure that everyone has displayed their Traffic Light" etc. | Reinforce that when Traffic Lights are displayed the teacher can see at a glance those students that need help.
