---- | |||
=== '''Launch Structure''' === | |||
==== 1. '''Opening (3-5 minutes)''' ==== | |||
'''Media Clip:''' | |||
Play a short video demonstrating how to resolve a conflict. | |||
'''Recommended Options:''' | |||
# ''"The Conflict Resolution Song"'' by StoryBots (2:30) - A lighthearted approach to handling disagreements. | |||
# ''"Conflict Resolution for Kids" by Better Kids (3:00)'' - Simple strategies explained with relatable examples. | |||
# ''"Soar Through Conflict"'' by Kid President (3:40) - Fun and inspiring tips for working through disagreements. | |||
If using ''"Soar Through Conflict"'':<blockquote>“Let’s watch how Kid President gives advice on handling conflicts. Pay attention to how he talks about treating others and finding solutions.”</blockquote>'''Discussion Prompt:''' | |||
* “What did you notice about the strategies shared in the video? How do you think they could help in real-life conflicts?” | |||
---- | |||
==== 2. '''Topic Introduction (2-3 minutes)''' ==== | |||
Introduce the topic with this insight:<blockquote>“Conflict is a normal part of life. It’s not about avoiding it but learning how to handle it in a way that respects everyone involved. By listening, staying calm, and focusing on solutions, we can turn conflicts into opportunities to grow and strengthen relationships.”</blockquote> | |||
---- | |||
==== 3. '''A/B Socratic Questions (5-7 minutes)''' ==== | |||
Use these A/B questions to spark discussion and deeper thinking. Encourage learners to choose a side and explain their reasoning. | |||
# '''Approach to Conflict:''' | |||
#* '''Option A:''' It’s better to address a conflict right away, even if emotions are high. | |||
#* '''Option B:''' It’s better to wait until everyone has calmed down to address a conflict. <blockquote>“How does timing affect the way a conflict gets resolved?”</blockquote> | |||
# '''Taking Responsibility:''' | |||
#* '''Option A:''' When resolving a conflict, you should focus on explaining your perspective. | |||
#* '''Option B:''' When resolving a conflict, you should focus on understanding the other person’s perspective. <blockquote>“Which approach do you think leads to a better resolution? Why?”</blockquote> | |||
# '''Compromise vs. Standing Firm:''' | |||
#* '''Option A:''' It’s better to compromise, even if you don’t fully agree, to keep the peace. | |||
#* '''Option B:''' It’s better to stand firm on your position to ensure your needs are met. <blockquote>“When is compromise necessary, and when is standing firm more important?”</blockquote> | |||
# '''Responding to Anger:''' | |||
#* '''Option A:''' When someone is angry, it’s best to stay silent and let them vent. | |||
#* '''Option B:''' When someone is angry, it’s better to calmly explain your side right away. <blockquote>“How can you respond to someone’s anger without making the situation worse?”</blockquote> | |||
---- | |||
==== 4. '''Reflection and Takeaway (3-5 minutes)''' ==== | |||
* '''Reflection Prompt:'''<blockquote>“Think about a time you had a conflict. How was it resolved? What worked well, and what could have been done differently?”</blockquote> | |||
* '''Group Sharing:''' Invite learners to share strategies they’ve seen or used to resolve conflicts successfully. | |||
'''Closing Thought:'''<blockquote>“Conflict doesn’t have to mean the end of a relationship. When we approach disagreements with empathy and a willingness to work together, we can build stronger connections and learn more about each other.”</blockquote> | |||
---- | |||
=== '''Optional Activity (if time allows):''' === | |||
* '''Conflict Role-Playing (5-10 minutes):'''Divide learners into pairs or small groups. Provide simple conflict scenarios (e.g., “Two friends want to play different games” or “Someone borrowed something without asking”). Have them role-play resolving the conflict constructively. After each role-play, ask: | |||
** “What worked well in resolving the conflict?” | |||
** “What could have been handled differently?” |
