When CONFLICT enters your life

If you have a minor problem with another student at recess try three of the following options BEFORE you contact a recess supervisor or tell your teacher ...

·      Politely talk it out

·      Compromise

·      Decide by Rock, Paper, Scissors

·      Find a new game

·      Walk away

·      Ignore the problem

·      Find a classmate to help solve the problem

·      Sing a song

·      Think: “Is it a big problem?”, “Is it my fault?”, or “Am I part of the problem?”

·      Make a new Friend

·      Take Turns 

·      Share

·      Stop the game and agree on the rules

·      Tell a joke

If it is a serious problem that could result in a physical or emotional injury always tell an adult!
