Conflict happens to everyone and we are learning how to resolve our conflicts peacefully and constructively in our classroom. After talking about what conflict is, we learned about the "Conflict Escalator." This is a concrete image that first graders can relate to in terms of how conflicts escalate and de-escalate. We read a story about a conflict and then worked in small groups to determine what made the conflict worsen and how we could have avoided the conflict in the first place. We will continue to talk about how to resolve conflicts using role plays, children's literature and real-life situations throughout the year.
