Prompt
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
- Add it to your Space. The Topic comes with this prompt and these settings, and you can edit both.
- Share the Topic link with your students.
- 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.
