Conflict Resolution Workshop

This week, we started facilitating workshops for younger students to coach them on conflict resolution strategies. 

Markus, Fabiano, and Jose joined the learners in Grade 4 on Thursday. 

After sharing different ways to solve conflicts through a presentation, we invited the 4th Graders to act out the solutions through role play. 




Below is a video of the entire workshop! 




We also applied the skills we have been learning in Writers' Workshop by creating this pop-up book on the various choices which can be made when conflicts occur at a global level. 

As a concrete example, we especially made connections to the current war between Russia and Ukraine. 

























What do you think is the best option and why?

building a fire...







cooking curry...











canoeing...







working together on an egg-drop challenge...








...and reflecting on the wonderful memories we made!





What an unforgettable time we had!
