What Would You Do? 8-B



This is What I Would Do!

Yesterday, students in 8-B got to apply their knowledge of Kelso's Choices to "small" and "big" problems experienced at schools.  During the first part of the lesson, I gave each girl a blank wheel and then asked them to fill it in with the nine Kelso's Choices.  Most knew all nine, but it was a good chance to review each choice.  Once their wheels were completed, I read scenarios and girls volunteered to go up to the board to pick which of Kelso's Choices they would use to solve the problem.  For example:

1.  "What you you do if someone was tripping you while you were walking to recess." (Tell them to stop, Talk it out)
2. "Your friend was being really annoying.  Instead of talking it out, you talked behind her back and she found out.  What would you do (Apologize)
3. "If someone was teasing you so much that you did not want to go to school, what would you do?" (Tell an adult you trust)

They did a great job with this and offered detailed explanations about how they would implement their choices!
