Disagree well

6–12 · Any subject · Build social-emotional skills

What students see

Imagine a teammate wants to do a project a different way than you do. Show how you would disagree with respect. Say what you heard, share your view, and suggest a next step.

Why it works

Students rarely get to practice a hard conversation before they need one. A made-up scenario lets them rehearse listening, stating a view, and offering a next step, with nothing personal at stake.

How to run it

  1. Add it to your Space. The Topic comes with this prompt and these settings, and you can edit both.
  2. Share the Topic link with your students.
  3. Approve posts as they come in. Until then only the person who posted and Space admins can see them.

Make it yours

Swap in a scenario from your class, such as choosing a project topic or splitting up work. Ask a partner to reply with one phrase that sounded respectful.
