Description
Of all of the conflict resolution strategies (or Kelso’s Choices), “Talk it Out” or “I-Messages” or "I-Statements" are my absolute favorite. It is such an incredible tool in promoting a positive classroom climate, encouraging independent problem solving, and developing healthy social skills. These are also an excellent part of a classroom using restorative practices because they provide students practice with affective statements before an actual problem arises.
*This resource is also available as part of my Conflict Resolution Bundle and Talk it Out Task Card Bundle.*
The first step in scaffolding the development of this skill is for students to practice giving I-messages to one another using these 42 pre-written “Talk it Out”/”I-Message” task cards. I like to use these in a modified Quiz, Quiz, Trade (or more of a Read, Read, Trade!) activity but they could also work in Concentric Circles, with whisper phones, or any other way you choose.
