These activities involve all parties in the creation of options, fostering a sense of ownership over the resolution process. 6. Negotiate and Compromise. Facilitate discussion where all parties can confront and negotiate their preferences regarding the potential solution. For example, teachers can agree that ten minutes before the end of physical education class, students will be busy cleaning up the classroom. 7. Reach and implement a mutually acceptable agreement: you can guide the parties toward reaching an agreement: develop with them a clear action plan for implementing it. Clarify responsibilities, timelines, and any necessary follow-up actions. For example, is 10 minutes enough time to set up the classroom, or would 15 minutes be needed? Is it possible to tell the students to pay more attention to order from the beginning? 8. Monitor and adjust: you can chat with everyone involved, fix any issues with them (or help them to reach a fix solution) and adjust if needed. Open communication and flexibility are key! 9. Promote restorative practices: if appropriate, incorporate restorative practices to repair relationships and restore trust. This may involve facilitated discussion or activities aimed at rebuilding connections within the school community. 10. Reflect and Learn: after the conflict is resolved, you can encourage a reflective process. You all can learn something about this experience, identifying what worked well and areas for improvement in the conflict management process.
