Conflict management and young children’s development.
a. Observe a typical conflict in a classroom and record it.
Using the text as a reference, document whether the primary cause of the
dispute was property, territory, privilege, or a combination. What did you
learn about young children and their conflicts from your observation and
analysis?
b. Interview a teacher who uses a peace prop to aid in
conflict management. Find out as much as you can about how the teacher uses the
prop. Using the text to compare to the teacher’s ideas, what did you learn
about the use of peace props in conflict management with young children?
