Managing Groups of Kids

Activities:

The following activities were presented in the Lesson 4 Instruction. If you have not yet completed them, please do so now.

Activity #1

Remind yourself of a few of the conflict resolution strategies the next time you meet with your group. Try to use them some time during the meeting. When you get home, think about if they worked or not, and if there are any other strategies on the list that might have also worked or worked better than the ones you used.

Activity #2

Think back to when a kid in your group acted up. Why do you think they acted that way? Look over this list and decide if any of these reasons could have contributed to the behavior. How can you reduce the risk of acting up behaviors in light of this information?

During your next group meeting, try to recall this list when somebody gets into trouble.
