Students role-play different solutions to a problem scenario and discuss the merits of each. Use humour (as done in the film) to bring forth new ideas. What if someone wants to play and you don’t want to play with them? What if someone can’t play nicely with your things? Offer young students the language and the tools to handle conflict and solve problems without violence.
