Adaptive teaching

Pupils who need support:

  • Should use the Resource: Assertive phrases when practising being assertive in the Main event.
  • Could respond to the friendship challenge scenarios by writing or drawing a resolution rather than role-playing in the Main event.
  • Should refer to the strategies and vocabulary in the Knowledge organiser for vocabulary support during their role-play in the Main event and their discussion in the Wrapping up. 

Pupils working at greater depth:

  • Could discuss when friends might need to walk away if they cannot compromise during role-play in the Main event.
  • Could create their own scenario during the role-play activity and use their friendship repair kit to solve the friendship challenge.
