Our 4th graders will need to come together, problem solve, and compromise to save Fred the worm from the rough waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Will we be successful and what will we learn in the process? Stay tuned!
Lesson Outline:
Skills addressed from the Guidance Roadmap:
Caring Classmate 1. I can initiate positive peer interactions and am able to follow steps to solve a conflict without a script or an adult reminder.
Review previous lesson about asking for adult help when needed. Ask the question: Are there things that each of us can do that will increase the chances that we will get along well with our peers even when we disagree?
Give the example of playing a game at recess and having different ideas about how to play. How would you handle this problem? Write a list of positive strategies to work through disagreements.
Introduce the “Can You Save Fred? Challenge”. Ask students to use the strategies listed to work with your group and come up with a plan to save poor Fred.
Time will be given to reflect and report out.
