In this video, we unpack "Climbing Down the Ladder," a powerful conflict resolution lesson plan designed to help students identify why fights escalate and how to hit the "pause button" before it’s too late. We break down the misconception that conflict is an instant explosion. Using the "Ladder of Reactions" framework, we show how to teach students to trace the history of a fight—from the initial "trigger" to the defensive reaction, all the way up to the communication breakdown. Key Lesson Concepts Discussed: • The Escalation Ladder: How to visualize conflict moving from a Rung 1 minor disagreement to a top-tier major blow-up. • Identifying Triggers: Helping students find their "hot buttons," like feeling ignored, disrespected, or left out. • The Detective vs. The Empath: A collaborative group strategy where students analyze scenarios (like the "Trey and Robert" social media drama) to find both the facts and the hidden emotional needs. • Perspective-Taking: Using real-world examples to teach students that impact does not always equal intent. ✨ TEACHER TIP: Watch for the segment on "Kinesthetic Escalation," where we use masking tape on the floor to let students physically step up the ladder as tension rises! Discussion Question: Which "rung" of the ladder do your students get stuck on the most? Is it the initial misunderstanding or the sarcastic defense mechanisms? Let me know in the comments! 👇
