Instructional Ideas

  • Challenge the class to write scenarios that include a conflict
  • Have copies of the extension pieces—the fortune teller and emojis—readily available to conduct those parts when time permits

Classroom Considerations

  • The ninth lesson in a 12-lesson series by Overcoming Obstacles
  • Preparation requires making copies and gathering other supplies—chart paper and markers

Pros

  • The use of emojis and iPhone text messaging graphics engage youth
  • Stresses the importance of choosing words wisely

Cons

  • The resource does not include conflict scenarios
