Conflict Resolution Lesson Plan: PowerPoint., Model, + 3 Practices

When I wanted to teach my 9th graders conflict resolution skills, I just couldn't find any lessons I felt were effective and relevant, so I took parts of many different models and made up my own steps to conflict resolution. I know you'll really appreciate the fun, creative, and informative lessons you'll find in this unit.

What I came up with are these entertaining, insightful, and impactful 3 to 4 days of Lesson Plans. Each lesson starts with an attention grabber to hook your students in, and then moves onto these important life-long relationship skills.

THIS LESSON IS INCLUDED IN THE BEST HEALTH CURRICULUM: A COMPLETE SEMESTER OF HEALTH LESSON PLANS AND DAY 1 ONLY IS ALSO PART OF THE "EMPATHY/VIOLENCE UNIT ." (See links below)

Lessons include:

1. 26-pages of teacher directions that take you step-step through each lesson.

2. A 62-slide PowerPoint that is visually stimulating and full of examples and directions. Concepts include: empathy, the Venn diagram, getting to know someone for who they really are, perceptions, assertive-vs-passive-vs-aggressive, growing a thicker skin and not reacting, conflict escalators,miscommunication, the SO QUIC model, internal -vs- external triggers, reminder statements to calm down, compromising, questioning, and "I" statements, to name a few!

3. A 6-step "SO QUIC" conflict resolution model, which encourages students to stay calm and not be so quick to jump to conclusions or lose their temper, thus giving up the POWER over their emotions to someone else.

4. A full 1-Day lesson on Empathy and an empathy homework assignment to help students practice this skill.

5. An "Assertiveness" survey, and an online "Awareness Test."

6. A 21-Slide "Perception" PowerPoint with black and white "Can you see the..." pictures

7. Four additional Practice Worksheets for these concepts: 1) writing a conflict the wrong (aggressive) way and then the right (assertive) way
2) Practicing realistic "I"statements 3) Practicing questioning skills 4) Putting the whole SO QUIC model together with 2 scenarios on paper and 2 outloud on the PowerPoint.

Included in both Word and PDF formats.

TOP 10 “FAVORITE LESSONS” SERIES: {Click on the description below}

In my 17 years of teaching Health and designing hundreds of lessons, these are my top 10 favorite lessons. First, I love teaching them because they present powerful, and valuable lessons for teens; and second, they’re favorites because they’re engaging and students have fun while they learn.

1. Food Label Scavenger Hunt. This lesson is my #1 seller. After students have read 42 food labels, they totally understand how to decipher the information on any food label!

2. Life Stories Project. The 3-Day project will have your students learning to embrace the hardships that make up their life stories, and sharing personal experiences they might not have otherwise talked about.

3. Alcohol Refusal Skills. This lessons starts with an interactive PowerPoint quiz on “Peer Pressure Lines,” continues with a true story about a dad who allowed his son to have an alcohol party in their basement, and ends with small group role-plays. Very powerful!

5. Dangerous Decisions Activity. Help Teens Realize the Consequences of 14 different risky behaviors they may be tempted by.

6. “Intervention” Addiction Lesson. Using “Intervention” T.V. Show to teach your students about addiction and treatment. Very powerful. This lesson teaches itself!

7. Nutrition Media Literacy. Have fun showing your students how food manufacturers manipulate us to buy their products. Kids will be surprised by what they learn.

8. Narcotics Dangers “Pharm Parties“ Lesson. Simulate a “Pharmaceutical Party” and help your student understand the dangers of narcotics, including prescription pills.
